## Resource

A tech guy named Billie Conley Jr. just admitted to wire fraud after secretly installing backdoor software on a funeral home’s network, letting him remotely access their systems and shut down their computers 21 times—crippling their business. He tried to upsell them with a monthly service contract they refused, then vanished when problems mounted. Now facing up to 20 years, he’s also agreed to repay the stolen funds.
