Dutch police have arrested a 20-year-old man suspected of hacking on the internet and stealing the details of 50,000 credit cards.
The man, detained in Maastricht on Tuesday (local time), is also alleged to have hacked into the server of a US gamemaker and stolen a copy of award-winning videogame Enemy Territory: Quake War - while it was in development.
Police seized the man's computer and a gun during their search of his home.
He is thought to have used the credit card identities, obtained through a British ticketing agency, to make numerous online purchases, racking up $US20 million of infrastructure damage along the way.
