Julius Kivimaki, the infamous hacker from Lizard Squad who ruined Christmas for more than one hundred million people in 2014. However, he was let go with little more than a slap on the wrist and spent the next seven years hacking anything to fund his opulent jetsetting lifestyle before things would eventually catch up to him.

HAHAHHAHA "no-one else, not even Proton can read them". My account was literally blocked and locked because my email had a few words in them they didn't approve of. I was trying to sell a LEGITIMATE cyber security service to a company but their algorithm detected it as something else. No appeal, no nothing. I argued with them about it and showed them exactly what I did. Then they tried telling my I broke their TOS. I went over each of their TOS statements and showed them that I did no such thing, not even close to it! I was fully within my rights and did nothing wrong. They didn't care. Not one bit. Tell me, Crumb, or anyone else, how can "NOT EVEN PROTON" shut down my account over some words in an email I sent ... if they can't read them? ARE YOU HONESTLY STUPID ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT?? :D PROTON IS A SCAM. PROTONMAIL IS A SCAM! THEY CAN AND DO READ YOUR EMAILS! THEY EVEN ANALYZE THEM! THEY DO EVERYTHING THEY PRETEND NOT TO DO! YOU ARE NOT SAFE NOR SECURE USING PROTONMAIL!!!!
He uploaded his own home folder... If this happened in a movie it would be considered lazy writing. You can't make this up.
I was listening to this audio only and I just froze and started laughing, HOW??? You’re absolutely right, I would have totally considered that unrealistic writing
@@Slush_ A simple momentary jell when he was basically hacking everything, constantly zipping up and transporting encrypted files for years on end. It demonstrates, if anything, hacking is pretty low lying fruit given everyone makes mistakes including the hackers themselves.
lmfao right 😭😭😭
No shit. "Super Hacker"
The problem is that it usually is lazy writing, as it seems so out there no one tends to believe it... didn't really think of his uploading his home folder in terms of making a movie though, and gave me a kek lol
The way they caught Julius after he didnt show up to his court hearings is hilarious too. As usual, he couldnt resist posting on social media and in one of the pictures there was a champagne bottle so rare that the police traced who and where bought it and it lead straight to and AirBnb apartment in central Helsinki :D :D
Rather suspicious they "were called about domestic violence" (something they don't need a warrant to enter the house for, and if the complainant isn't there they have to enter the house)
The police used to "hear a woman screaming" or other exigent circumstances that allow warrantless entry before body cams started being a thing..
Now they just need to send in a CI (confidential informant.. aka a person they pay to do things for them, usually a drug addict).
So imagine, they send in a CI, telling her (or him) to flirt with said person, get into the house, call in a bogus DV claim (domestic violence) and then leave right away before the cops show up so that they don't have to be scrutinized regarding "Yeah but the claimant is a paid CI"
This case screams fishy to me.
The more I think about it.. he's a "hacker", so if the police "hacked him back" with a social engineering attack.. I'm actually fine with it 😂
"Live by the sword, die by the sword"
Or "If you play in the dirt, you get ditty."
@@jonslg240 They had an international arrest warrant for him, so what's the point? It's not like he was hiding in his house 24/7 either.
@@jonslg240 He was very open about his carrier and most likely he was telling this women that made this call who he is.
Paid girlls are often informing police to have some special privilages with them and it is a thing all over the world and also nothing new. The guy wanted to be stoped by the police for a very long time, for what ever reason -> propably because there was noone to stop someone from doing something that he did not likes when he was young.
@@jonslg240 This is Finland not Murrica so I I doubt that that is what took place.
Bro loved trolling so much that he trolled himself by uploading a tar archive of all archive types of his home folder. That's crazy
very common archive type on linux
@@thewhitefalcon8539 sure but not without using gzip and some other archive or encryption method like openssl
I got what you mean, out of all compression codecs he had to poop a tar ball

Look at the name, kivimaki :3c
He just got sentenced to 6 years and 3 months in prison‼️‼️‼️
A pittance..Finland loves their hackers and keeps them ' in pocket'.😅
Its huge in scale of finland ..
And for a rape of 10 year old girl you get 3 years of prison.
Sits 3 years max because this is a weak joke country where criminals have better rights than victims.
YT literally censors suggesting the proper sentence. All this one does is send a message to all other similar criminals that they are in no real danger from Law Enforcement. Catch & Release tier idiocy.
Could have mentioned that Tapio sold Vastaamo (or to be exact 71% of shares, leaving him and his mother with 29%) between the hack taking place and the company making a public statement that they had had a security breach. That's why he got fired from the CEO position, the new owners weren't too happy about him neglecting to mention that there had been a security breach that threatened the entire company.
Oh wow I had no idea
Well, Tapio maintains that he was unaware of the fact and there's an ongoing court case regarding the matter, so it's all "alleged" for now. Tapio's background is in programming and online commerce and he was the one responsible for the "online" part of "online counselling" when the company was starting out, so I have my hunches. But yeah, Kivimäki isn't the only interesting character in this story. @@CrumbRS
Thats Julius-level scumbaggery tbh
thata really bad for tapio. might need to redo the trade
the whole vastaamo side action on it was abysmal. also how bad their security was for the hack to happen.
Going after mental health institutes and going after troubled people is absolutely vile.
bit insane innit
Well he didn't hack the mental health institute he just blackmailed them with info he took from another script kiddie.
@@Dead_Goat that is not any better...
Downright disgusting. Especially since multiple people have now commited suicide because of his doings ☹
@@LordBelakor I think it's linked to sadistic personality by everyone.

@@mathiash6525yup. Never forget logging into the official utorrent ipb forums on an admin account. Jan 2015. That dude was logged in at the same time and was posting on twitter. Had to manually dump the user table in the panel no shell by just doing Sql commands in the ipb panel. Then we got signed out halfway. Dumb shit
@@mathiash6525if you are actually plugged in most of the hackers. Like the r2games dumpers. you’d get credentials from them as friends. Most of those core guys had the vbulletin and ipb RCE 0days. Good times. Apparently r2games only was dumped because it was on the same server on an unrelated thing. Who knows I forgot. But one of them said “oh shit on the same web shell the entire 8 figure usertable is here aswell.” Also real dumpers we’re active before 000webhost went public. Yes there. Was a time when 000webhost mattered and was private 😂
I live in the country but even the local media hasn't dug this deep into the guy's history. Great reporting!
Well, the less publicity, the better. The guy has a climax every time he's talked about.
Today (March 9th), I looked up some news, and they will sentence him on 30th April. Until then they will keep him in custody (the only logical way to do it)
Edit. It’s April 30th and he was sentenced to 6 years and 7 months of prison (or jail, idk the difference)
Thanks, a lot of wannabe bountyhunters must watching, feeling let down😅

I’m curios of the verdict too
The fact that therapists digitally store transcripts of what you said is wild.
Another reason to never go to therapy or to trust that shlomo ""science"
with a "root" password nonetheless HAHAHAHAHAH
Without encryption.
Yeah, I'll white knuckle it through life, thanks.
That's why I keep secrets even from myself, and yes, that does make sense.
Man, as an old frequenter (and moderator) of HF back in the day, there just for random chatting and passive learning, it's wild seeing all these old names of users I've interacted with before popping up in your videos.
same bro same
Do people still use HF? The site is there, but my country, most VPNs and free proxies are banned so I cannot access it. I am a Pakistani and they blocked Pakistan for almost the entirety of their existence online as a site.
I think it would have been worth mentioning that apparently multiple people that got their data leaked in the hack ended up quitting from life (Stupid youtube censorship). They held a silent moment in the court for those. We do not know the scale of damage that the publication of the tens of thousands of personal record has caused.
One doesn't still say "catch the bus" does one?
The sad thing is that once he finishes his sentence, he will 99.99% do the same shit again. Some people are incorrigible.
I hope he gets some prison justice
If not him, then someone else. There are real sophisticated hacks, but this was not one of them but pure negligence from the company. Probably a lot of others, including state actors, got there too just by accident. But of course they would not extort the victims for the lulz but rather use it in more effective ways.
Maybe not. This guy also cheated some money from drug dealers (1 million euros). Hauskaa vankila-aikaa Juliukselle :)
Bruh got the same face as Amy Schumer in some angles lol damn
I read this while looking at his face and almost died laughing.

@@mrjjman2010 will you still be able to say that when he's free?
I’m from Finland. The judicial system is really strange here; if you tax evade it’s straight to prison, but Julius got basically nothing as a teenager for all the cybercrimes he did
And the health provider CEO got a slap on the wrist. You need to set an example to deter future crimes.
Too bad they didn't know how much money he had. They could've taken him down with a speeding ticket!
Because most of the "crimes" aren't really crimes
Trying not to make a wall of text, but the laws most countries have are stupid when they relate to the Internet
There are countries that consider clicking Ctrl+U is "hacking a website". Owning a botnet also isn't a crime per se, arguably all the Big Tech companies do it too
I'm amazed that judge ever let him out
Because if you rob the government, they care. If you rob/deceive ordinary people, why would they care?
Honestly there's a lot of these kinds of kids running around in communities today, doing the same sorts of horrible shit to people and then getting slaps on the wrist due to being minors. It's pretty crazy what they can get away with for so long.
cause long sentenses does not help..... we dont want to be America and a have a prison industry
To avoid a prison industry you allowed your society to become lawless... Of course long sentences help. It's kind of hard to commit crimes when you're behind bars. The longer the criminal is behind bars the less crimes they can commit. @@possu1984
Cuz ruining your game isn’t a big deal😢
No offense to Vinnie, but saying he was generous, because he didn't take every penny someone had but came up with a number he thought was "fair" to blackmail them for, Jesus Christ, that's not generosity... Give me a break, man.
dude these are hackers, their all thieving pieces of shit, that probably is "good" for a hacker, in comparison to more greedy hackers
What a wild mindset to live in.
He's saying compared to the company's worth at the time, it was an insignificant amount. Not an amount that they would be financially incapable of bouncing back from.
Generosity is the wrong word, but that's what he was getting at. Given that most ransomware incursions initially asked for some pretty crazy figures when they hit successful companies.
@@Si74l0rd Don't be ridiculous. He's a mugger bragging that he left the person a dollar for the bus. And it wasn't an insignificant amount, it bankrupted the company.
I think you need a new sarcasm detector
He looks like he spent a lot of money on CS skins, lost them to a scammer, then turned into the joker.
😅 funny you say that
@@BroomopUK is he wrong though? 😂
just a note about proton mail. they literally gave up the information of a French journalist when a government agency asked. they WILL give your shit up. their E2E encryption also isn't for emails in general, it's for other proton emails.
Jesus. What about tutanota???
Proton is a way to not have all your shit sniffed by the big US tech companies instantly, but mail without your own encryption scheme on top has to be treated as a post card.
@@DeaDiabola The feds say they don't give anything to them, but their emails to other domains are not encrypted by default, because they can't do anything on what the other side does
These guys are so right. If it isnt within the same network / email tool, it cannot be done by them. At that point, it needs to be done, then sent and then decrypted. So that can be done with any provider, subject to size limits of course.
Any email providers have themselves all your mails.
That's one entity different than yourself that have acces to all your data.
If I had a nickel for every time a runescape content creator I follow pivoted to more general video essays and found a ton of success, I'd have two nickels.

his "friend" is hilarious, thinking 7 years of no freedom and internet wouldn't completely cripple this guy because he would "not care and just entertain himself in his own mind" is so cute.
Right? Dude had trouble complying with house arrest for a week!
He needs 7 years timeout just to grow up
Well "seven years of no freedom" isn't actually what I'd call "no freedom" when it comes to Finnish prisons. It's like a three star hotel
If you think he's going to actually serve all those 7 years you clearly don't know the Finnish justice system well enough. 3 years max, after which he'll be back to his old shenanigans. Here the only crime you get serious punishment for is tax evasion.

Vinnie Omari is a notorious troll and he's trolling you in the interview.
How is that trolling? If he’s just lying then that’s just lying, not trolling
Nah he isnt trolling its just unfathomable glazing
Do you notice how anytime they outsmart someone, they call them stupid? I never got that! If you outsmart someone who is stupid, there is no challenge and it doesn't prove that you're smart. Instead, why not exclaim, "I'm bloody brilliant!"
"I beat up a ten year old, I definitely could take Tyson in his prime!"
Calling other people stupid is a narcissistic tendency to excuse one's own behaviour. I punished them for being stupid, it's their own fault. Heck, I'm even helping by teaching them a valuable lesson.
Update on Julius
He was found guilty on all counts and got sentenced to 6 years and 3 months in prison
I have long thought that griefing and "trolling" is quite often linked to psychopathy and sociopathy. Basically people who either take advantage of people with no remorse, or just enjoy making others miserable even if it costs them selves something to do that.
A lot of games also unintentionally encourage that kind of behaviors as well.
I agree.
A little bit of teasing is normal, it stops when it's no longer fun for all parties involved because of empathy and sympathy being present.
Taken too far in the shape of trolling, even bullying, is done by people who have behavioral problems, and especially have narcissistic traits, with very little to no empathy and sympathy.
People who think it's funny regardless of how far it's taken, need to see a psychiatrist.
Griefing is fun. That's why it's so popular.
@@cosmo9208Just say you can't take players the same level as you and leave, lmao. I've run into countless people like yourself, it's ALWAYS the same. You're embarassing yourself. Many of those players are children, adding an entirely new dimension of pathetic and sad.
Even as a 13 y/o playing WoW pvp servers, I thought it was a cringe thing to do, lol. Once I was level 50, I assumed that was my "time" to grief other players - only to find it to be a joyless endeavor. Call me "unfun", but crushing other people who have the same advantages as you because you're a better player than them is what's fun. Genuinely wrong with you if you spend hours of your day just trying to make someone miserable when they merely want to have fun as well.
Some dudes will do anything aside from going to therapy. 😂
@@DeaDiabola Sometimes I grief on players on the same level as me. But it's less fun. And as I said, griefing on very high level players is fun as well. They get so angry.
It's really interesting, I'd like to comment on that thought. The fun that people get from trolling or griefing is sadistic thrill: a rush of adrenaline and a sense of power. But any teasing or pranking (against an unwilling person) works like that. What decides whether we normalise that thrill or not is how much damage is caused. For example, both burning down a Minecraft server and ding-dong-ditching provide that thrill, but one is judged to be malicious and one just "silly". The difference is how much we feel that empathy for the victim should dwarf the pleasure of that thrill (in the same way that you might kill a fly for money, but not kill a person). The idea that trolling, pranking, etc. is fun in a mischievous way is not what's mysterious, it *is* fun, but there's an invisible line between the victim being inconvenienced and tortured, and when that line is crossed (wherever we perceive it individually) we get red flags that the person doing it lacks empathy: we see a monster. And, the further along it is crossed, the more chances we do have to be dealing with psychopathy.
I'm curious, in what ways do you think games encourage that?
He's practically free after 3 years. It's really lax. We will hear from him again. This time he will really be on the run.
That is the most Finnish looking Finnish man.
Except for that apparently his eyes are green rather than blue.
Nah that's totally romanian
Green(ish) eyes are pretty common in Finland. Strikingly blue ones are rarely seen.
@@timosalo5003 Blue eyes (not necessarily especially striking) are far more common than green eyes. I think brown eyes are more common than green eyes too.
@@seneca983 As far as I know, green eyes are more prevalent in Finland than in many other places. Mine are green with a brown inner ring, a pretty run-of-the-mill thing here. Gray eyes with no discernible blue or green hues are also common, although not nearly as prevalent as in Russia AFAIK.
The dude you're interviewing saying the hackers extortion amount was "fair" and "generous" is absurd.
200 isnt hard to come by at all. especially when the victims are using private healthcare resources.. 1 session costs around the same
so many things wrong with that - 200 euros is quite a lot for a lot of people, but especially students - finland has public healthcare - prices for therapy vary wildly depending on a number of factors, being as little as 20 dollars in some places.
the only reason you have to think one session costs the same is if you googled "average price of therapy session" but didn't do the math to realize you shouldn't be looking at US statistics on a Finnish crime haha - even if it was the US, stats show the majority of people cannot afford a 500 USD utility bill out of the blue, so I doubt they would find 200 reasonable either
7.1/10. thanks for the laugh - stay stupid
@@valkoroska2369
i was literally just commenting on that but it deleted my message
also like, the average is only 200 in the US hahahahah and even if it were the US, most people cannot comfortably afford 200 either, as most people statistically don't have $500 in spare emergency funds

I remember both Vinnie and Julius from HF back in 2014-ish. These guys aren't hackers. They're turists that likes to be around and take part in the credits. Julius has no tech skills, he's just a carder, ddos'er and extorter.

He more meant that the amounts requested were affordable, for example the therapist business could have paid and be scot free.
@@sitemap.x Yep that's the only saving grace until this point in the video. He had his hands on some incredibly personal data and unlike some others the ransom was actually "reasonable". I mean 200 bucks so your personal medical information and psychic treatment isn't leaked? That's worth so much in personal/mental damage prevention alone. And even the 450k was a lot but reasonable if you look at their revenue and the reputation damage and fines that would be the result of that. Still scummy but at least he gave the victims a reasonable way out unlike hackers demanding 4k+ from a person to decrypt their computer or sth like that
@@sitemap.x he called him generous... for not scamming them for all they had.. they're both insane.

Just insane to think about.
the imaginary money i wish i had.
I personally know associates of him. One I know IRL. He’s sitting on $45m in crypto today thanks to his hacking endeavours with Kivimaki.
yeah but at the time it was one of the first crypto currencys out there no one knew shit about it or if it would reach any type of mainstream adoption like it has why risk your money on something new and unpredictable. Now of course it seems stupid to not accept bitcoin but its just hindsight bias imo at the time that was probably the smartest choice if you had no idea about what btc would grow into

LMFAO. I just watched the video about Lizard Squad. Loaded YT homepage, and this was uploaded 8 minutes ago. Nice.
Enjoy man :) Days after I uploaded the Lizard Squad video news broke he was on Europol's most wanted, and well, now here we are
This was pretty sad. The kid was clearly chasing what he could never get from his parents. When he got caught he kept "trolling" because he had nothing left to lose.
Am I the only one thinking that 7 years is nothing? Over 600 charges and the dude is out in less than a decade..
Actually I believe there is like total of 27.7k participants on this case
Welcome to finland + prison is very comfy
It's actually quite a strict sentence, by Finnish standards.
I don't think he will be in prison even 7 years. There are all kinds of reductions for prison sentences in Finland. In cases like this where the person has done great amount of harm and will probably continue their criminal career, it feels like a bad joke.
finland seems to be very soft on crime

@@delfosse.design tbh that was my favourite Christmas, sure I couldn't play my shit but tuning in to hear two squads beefing about "activism" on drama alert when I wasn't spending time with the family is a core memory.
And as bad as that was, it was merely a mild warning sign compared to what came next, i.e. the mass extortion of psychiatric patients. Wonder how many he drove into suicide for a buck. This guy is a total psycho, murders folks for the troll. World will be much safer with him behind bars. Just trolling bro, don't worry about it!
Yes we understand stop crying
Lol ya thumbstick monkeys
another crumb W. thanks for releasing these great videos. half the time im wondering how long it takes you to edit these videos🤣. insanely skilled editing. much love!!
"Where are the parents"? As a 40 year old who was in trouble w the feds at age 16, and had been "blackhat" hacking since the mid 90s, let me quote my step father (RIP): "We always knew where your body was, but never where your mind was."
They knew i was home, but could have no idea the criminal activity i could be up to from my bedroom.
Bro, he went to other countries alone.
@dotnet9830 you're missing the context of the comment I'm replying to. It was in reference to OP asking where are the parents in these hacking scenarios when teen kids are involved.
Finland's legal system definitely has its quirks. 🇫🇮💻
Please my guy we need a 2 hour special this shits too good😭
The minecraft griefer to cyber criminal pipeline needs to be studied
Really good stuff, need part two!
WOW!!! it's amazing to see how far you've came crumb. I'm happy to see your videos flourishing!
Thank you so much!
oh senpai uwu
Arrogance eventually takes all.
truth
Jesus the fact that the MAXIMUM sentence he could get was 7 years is insane
Your growth has been fantastic crumb your doin awesome man. Happy for ya man!
Appreciate you!
This video is more detailed than anything I have read about this case here in Finland. I cant believe you managed to get so much information when most of the evidence is in Finnish. Great job!
We have missed you and your content and I am glad your back with a banger. Can't wait to see what's in store for the rest of the year please don't stop
Great research on this. So much information.
wow crumb amazing how your content evolved from rs tot this , I love this channel !!! (never delete your rs videos please)
Can't believe this man was actually taken down by "Wait a minute, you're not a bear on a unicycle!"
miss the rs content but loveee the docs to watch while grinding 💕
love your editing bro. Good job
Honestly you make the best hacker documentaries on CZcams keep up it bro 👌
I can't believe i did watch the whole thing, good job editing! It's truly crazy the amount of stuff he was able to get away with.
The dude in voice chat has a rich vocabulary of "bro", "bro", and "bro"
Just found your channel. Great content. As someone involved in hacker community and culture since the early 1990s (before the movie Hackers was released) it has always confused me about people willing to own up to breaking the law online because it seems anonymous when they know that it's quite easy to track down the people behind a post. I understand bragging rights in the community, but I have never claimed responsibility or involvement in any hack because I am content knowing that I know it and it's kept me from being a target. Being the greatest hacker nobody has ever heard of is better than being the one everyone knows about seems like a wiser path.
crumb makes some quality videos. i have to say. i bet these take forever to produce. thanks crumb! always love seeing the notification when you post.
Today 30. march 2024 he got a sentence, 6 years and 7 months of real prison. This is not the highest level of the system though. there can be changes.
Team AVO? Nodus client? That takes me back!
Sometimes I think about Xallnaturalx and if that dude is still an idiot ten years later, great catch
can you speak on it? i love hack history
Thank you for making this video. Nice summary of what happened
Butters from South Park IRL
That's it! Especially on the episode where he grew up and went to prison for crypto-bro scams!
You’ve become one of my favorite CZcamsrs. You’re one of the only CZcamsrs I have post notifications on for keep up the good work Crumb.
Appreciate you man :)
It's honestly hilarious hearing Vinny talk about others doing things "for the rush" when he's still around to this day attempting to scrounge up any little "fame" or "recognition" he has left to scam people with shit like terrible NFT projects and other stupid ideas.
He just got caught again by the Finnish police few days ago in a private residence (I haven't watched the video yet, so I don't know if you mention it)
Thanks for the update
What he getting charged wit now ?
Just found your channel out, great stuff! ❤️
Great video man. I can see the effort you put into this and it was worth it. Bravo!
guess you can arrest a lizard after all
Only took a decade
@@CrumbRS holy crap i got noticed
just found your channel, i'm hooked. thank you for my new obsession lmao
Ayy enjoy man:)
New crumb video on a Friday let's go! Time to afk WC at work and listen to this.
Get those gains :)
ordering pizzas to someones house is classic mw2 ip pulling behavior.
I love your vids, big fan. Don't take this the wrong way, but some constructive feedback I'd like to give is to not use so many "cliff-hangers" where you intentionally hold off or drag the info out, you don't need it as you've shown in your previous videos and using it makes you very similar to every other CZcamsr when your content is usually quite unique. You have a great way of presenting, explaining and elaborating content, I don't think you need to employ these tactics (for lack of a better word) to keep users watching. Keep up the good work man, you've come a long way from your Osrs days!
This is sooo true and wtf would he think that it's bad pretense for refactor self image upgrade
Fun fact, his Romanian ID "was issued" in Vâlcea (VL), which is know as "Romanian hackerville" :)))
Banger video as always, also the tips in email response were actually quite nice i expected just standard email things/average adread to be honest
*zeens* like magazines
ngl he looks like the typa dude to do this
he looks like a villain
that sounds so dumb. How is that true?
He looks like the type to ramble about Aryan nation.
I know it's a month late, but just had to say, Crumb my man, you have been absolutely crushing it lately....putting out banger after banger video. The editing/pacing, motion graphics, aesthetics of it all are top notch.
This was really good, thanks!
