TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – A Tampa teenager is in jail, accused of being the “mastermind” behind a hack on the social media website Twitter that caused limited access to the site and high-profile accounts, according to jail records and the Hillsborough State Attorney’s Office.

8 On Your Side’s Ryan Hughes received exclusive information about the arrest of 17-year-old Graham Clark.

Hillsborough State Attorney Andrew Warren filed 30 felony charges against the teen this week for “scamming people across America” in connection with the Twitter hack that happened on July 15. The charges he’s facing include one count of organized fraud, 17 counts of communications fraud, one count of fraudulent use of personal information with over $100,000 or 30 or more victims, 10 counts of fraudulent use of personal information and one count of access to computer or electronic device without authority.

Did they pick him up while he was collecting carts in the Walmart parking lot?

Don't worry, the very people at Twitter who were bested by a 17 year old are hard at work making sure it never happens again.

Nah, he'll probably be put to work in cyber security for the government in lieu of a prison.

The scary part is that he's smart enough to beat Twitter, but too stupid to cover his tracks. This should make everyone question the security of their private information.

Naw, maybe he'll get a few years, but he's 17.
This will be his calling card though and will probably lead to very lucrative job opportunities.
