Two British teenagers, Thalha Jubair and Owen Flowers, have been sentenced to over five years in prison for a devastating £29 million cyber attack on London's transport network. The attack, which threatened £56 billion in potential damage, was part of a broader campaign by the Scattered Spider hacking group that ransomed major companies worldwide. Their capture was facilitated by Jubair's blunder: using illicit crypto to buy takeaway food vouchers, which traced back to his East London home. The case reveals a story of youthful infiltration, starting from SIM-swapping at age 13 to targeting giants like Microsoft and Rockstar, with even prison-bound attempts to hack government systems.
