Thanh Nien News reports:
A Ho Chi Minh City court Thursday sentenced a man to seven and half years in prison for trading personal information stolen from credit card users in Vietnam and other countries.
Six henchmen of Van Tien Tu, 30, got jail terms of one and a half to four years, all for the same crime of “illegally using information on the Internet.”
