The FBI has arrested a man accused of stealing personal information from the online accounts of 350 women in order to ‘sextort’ them into stripping off so he could take nude pictures via webcam.

According to the 30-count indictment, 27-year old Karen “Gary” Kazaryan hacked into large numbers of email, Facebook and Skype accounts, locking out their owners while he searched for compromising data including embarrassing images.
