A New Zealand teenager accused of being the ringleader of an international cyber-crime network has been convicted.
Owen Thor Walker, 18, admitted six charges of using computers for illegal purposes and will be sentenced in May.
Police allege the group infiltrated more than one million computers and used them to skim at least $20.4m (£10.3m) from private bank accounts.
He was detained last November as part of an FBI investigation into global botnets - networks of hijacked PCs.
