Nathan Austad pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 18 months in prison for his role in a 2022 credential-stuffing campaign against DraftKings that targeted roughly 60,000 accounts, compromised about 1,600 accounts, resulted in approximately $600,000 stolen, and involved selling access to compromised accounts via an online shop; he was ordered to pay nearly $1.8M in restitution and forfeiture and is the third person sentenced in the investigation.
