6. Vasily Gorshkov and Alexey Ivanov
In a sting operation in 2000, the FBI, operating under the guise of Invita Security (a dummy computer security company) contacted Vasily Gorshkov and Alexey Ivanov, two known Russian hackers. They were lured to the U.S. for an employment 'interview' with Invita, and were arrested and imprisoned on multiple counts of conspiracy, computer crime, and fraud, as they had already stolen over 50,000 credit card numbers from Internet service providers (ISPs) and online banks throughout the late '90s.
