Operators of Counter Antivirus Service Scan4You Convicted

In May 2017, one of the biggest facilitators of cybercrime, Scan4You, went offline after the two main suspects, Ruslans Bondars and Jurijs Martisevs, were arrested in Latvia and extradited to the U.S. by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In May 2018, the case against the Scan4You’s operators concluded in a Virginia federal courtroom.


The Trend Micro Forward-Looking Threat Research (FTR) team started to look into Scan4You's operations in 2012, and have been in close contact with FBI investigators assigned to the case since 2014. Our research on Scan4You spanned more than five years, passing some of our findings to the FBI until the service went offline.
