  1. James Baugh, 45, of San Jose, Calif., eBay’s former Senior Director of Safety & Security, was arrested today and charged by criminal complaint with conspiracy to commit cyberstalking and conspiracy to tamper with witnesses. David Harville, 48, of New York City, eBay’s former Director of Global Resiliency, was arrested this morning in New York City on the same charges and will make an initial appearance via videoconference in U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York. In addition the following defendants were charged in an Information unsealed today: Stephanie Popp, 32, of San Jose, eBay’s former Senior Manager of Global Intelligence; Stephanie Stockwell, 26, of Redwood City, Calif., the former manager of eBay’s Global Intelligence Center (GIC); Veronica Zea, 26, of San Jose, a former eBay contractor who worked as an intelligence analyst in the GIC; and Brian Gilbert, 51, of San Jose, a former Senior Manager of Special Operations for eBay’s Global Security Team.

  2.  @GizzelleBrookes-vs5ec  Federal charges with a 5 year maximum are the federal equivalent of jaywalking. If the feds are cutting breaks, I'd like to see some actual executives face charges. This story became known to Ebay at about the same moment that their CEO was fired. I hope Amazon, Facebook, Paypal, Google and Twitter are watching. Seriously, they have an iron clad case for wire fraud worth 20 years per each of multiple counts. Keep an eye on this case.

  3. I am suspicious about the modest charges. Where are the wire fraud and mail fraud charges? The conspiracy charges?

  4. We should have a look at those old anti-trust laws. Microsoft was just threatened with a case in the 90's and lost about a billion dollars in a single day.
