Yes, although this is mainly to do with SA-MP, it's still real-life news.

Quoted from Woet on the SA-MP forums:
Woet said:
The DDoSer, virus writer and extortionist known as 'n3ptun0' has been arrested by the Police and is currently in jail awaiting trial.
He is responsible for DDoSing popular SA-MP servers such as GamerX and the Partyserver, demanding money from them in return for him to stop sending attacks.
Additionally, he also attacked the SA-MP website, SA-MP forums, serverFFS website and the SA-MP IRC network from time to time.

elhacker.net and several other parties have been active in tracing him down and collecting evidence, finally leading to this arrest.

Spanish Interior Civil Guard said:

Pwnt.
 
Nice read, I heard of the dude, but didn't know he was "actively" doing his shit.
 
Owned. That's what happens when things get out of your control.

75000? The guy had 100000 bots alone from South America. He sent me an image over MSN once showing his web control panel. Also he used the same exploit to spread his virus as the Conficker did. He told me that his friend is some sort of a code developer who had made part of the Conficker virus (which eventually got out of his hands) and n3ptun0 used that code also.

I think Woet actually banned someone from #sa-mp today who responded to someone's "did n3ptun0 really get arrested" with a "no". I think it was LobbyZ who said "no" and got banned.

Also n3ptun0 once showed me his SA-MP 0.2x startup packet loader and his source (VB6) for bots on 0.2x server. He was requesting $20 per month from servers for exchange of not DDoSing them.

But seriously props to Woet and this elhacker crew and people for getting this dude locked up. Good job, less bullshit and crime on the net. And less for the SA-MP faggots to cry about. Oh and yeah SFSFv2 was attacked by one South American botnet a little before. They blocked the IPs though.
 
A botnet that big...

Hmm he's not going to get off easily.

Good thing they caught the bastard.
