Trump associate Felix Sater accused of hacking celebrities' data

Source: Marketwatch

NEW YORK — A lawsuit has alleged that Felix Sater, a Russia-born businessman and convicted felon with ties to President Donald Trump, hacked into a Hollywood friend’s electronics and accessed confidential information about her celebrity clients.

Stella Bulochnikov Stolper, a former manager for the singer Mariah Carey, sued Sater and his personal assistant in New York on Friday, alleging they created an electronic backdoor to tap into her computers, smart phones and other devices.

The lawsuit said the pair engaged in “willful and malicious” hacking and the “misappropriation of valuable electronically stored property.” Stolper is seeking at least $1 million in damages and wants them to turn over any pilfered material.

Sater, an off-and-on business adviser to Trump for several years, is due to testify before Congress next week about his work trying to get a Trump skyscraper built in Moscow.
