Army soldier linked to Snowflake attack spree allegedly tried to sell data to foreign spies

U.S. authorities allege that a 21-year-old Army soldier, Cameron Wagenius, stole and attempted to sell sensitive phone records—some tied to a wider Snowflake-related breach—and tried to extort AT&T for $500,000 while communicating with what he believed was a foreign intelligence service; court documents show device seizures, evidence of thousands of stolen IDs and cryptocurrency, links to co-conspirators indicted for cloud intrusions, and behavior suggesting intent to flee and possible defection, raising both criminal and national-security concerns.
