Identity theft suspect is found and arrested

FBI agents arrested an Azusa man accused of being a fugitive for the last four months.

Jeffrey Brett Goodin, 46, was taken into custody after federal agents said they learned of his location, which was not disclosed.

Goodin, who was known as “The Hacker,” was originally arrested in January for allegedly operating an identity theft scheme in which thousands of fraudulent e-mails were sent to AOL customers seeking credit and debit card information. Goodin allegedly made purchases using the information.

Goodin went missing after he was released on bond after being indicted for the scheme.

Neither Goodin nor his attorney was available for comment. He is scheduled to be arraigned next week in federal court.
