Cable modem hacker faces up to 40 years in prison
Matthew Delorey of Massachusetts has been arrested this week, accused of selling hacked Comcast cable modems that would allow buyers to have free Internet access.
Delorey has also been charged with one count of conspiracy and one count of wire fraud, each of which has a maximum sentence of 20 years and a fine of $250,000 USD.
The alleged hacker sold the modems via Massmodz.com, which has since been taken down. The modems were modified to have the MAC addresses spoofed, technically stealing Internet access from paying customers.
Delorey was caught when FBI agents purchased two of the modems. The hacker also posted videos on YouTube
titled “Massmodz.com How to Get Free Internet Free Cable Internet Comcast or any Cable ISP - 100% works” and “Massmodz.com How to bypass Comcast registration page with premod cable modem SB5100, SB 5101.”
