Nearly a hundred police officers from special troops entered in suspects houses in some major cities in the country: Timisoara, Lugoj, Caransebes, Hunedoara and Pitesti. Investigators say that internet pirates have put their hands on about 350,000 euros.

The operation started at the same time: 6:00 AM (local time) in all cities so that suspects do not announce to each other. Investigators confiscated computers, CD-s, laptops and electronic devices that the hackers used to break even secure servers of NASA. FBI has been involved in the case also.
