A former US government informant, who hacked into retail networks to steal 130 million debit and credit card numbers, has been charged over the country's largest financial data theft.
Albert Gonzalez, 28, of Florida, is accused of stealing 130 million accounts, on top of 40 million he himself stole previously, according to prosecutors.
He was an ex-informant for the US Secret Service, which he helped hunt hackers, authorities say. (more) (sing-a-long)
