U.S. Army Soldier Indicted for Selling Stolen Confidential Phone Records

DETROIT – Federal authorities unsealed an indictment on Monday accusing U.S. Army soldier Cameron John Wagenius of selling and attempting to sell stolen confidential phone records. Wagenius was arrested on December 20 and charged in the Western District of Texas with two counts of unlawful transfer of confidential phone records information.

Col. Kamil Sztalkoper, spokesperson for the III Armored Corps, confirmed the arrest of a Fort Cavazos soldier and stated that the Corps would cooperate with law enforcement agencies. Fort Cavazos, formerly Fort Hood, is located in Texas.

Cybersecurity journalist Brian Krebs reported that Wagenius, known online as “Kiberphant0m,” claimed responsibility for multiple hacks, including call records allegedly related to Vice President Kamala Harris and President-elect Donald Trump. Wagenius, 20, was ordered to be sent to Seattle, where federal prosecutors handling the case are based.

The prosecution office is also handling the cases of Connor Moucka and John Binns, who are accused of data breaches involving billions of sensitive customer service records. Moucka was arrested in Canada and faces extradition to the U.S., while Binns is currently in jail in Turkey.

Allison Nixon, chief research officer at cybersecurity company Unit 221B, identified Wagenius’ true identity after Moucka’s hacking group threatened her and a colleague. Nixon praised law enforcement’s swift response in the case.

Neither the Department of Justice nor the FBI immediately responded to requests for comment on Tuesday.
