LOS ANGELES — A Florida man was charged with hacking into the emails of Christina Aguilera, Scarlett Johansson and Mila Kunis in a computer invasion scheme that targeted Hollywood celebrities, federal authorities said Wednesday.
Christopher Chaney, 35, of Jacksonville, Fla., was arrested without incident as part of a yearlong investigation of celebrity hacking that was dubbed "Operation Hackerazzi." Chaney, who was expected to appear in a Florida courtroom later Wednesday, was charged with 26 counts of identity theft, unauthorized access to a protected computer and wiretapping.
If convicted, he faces up to 121 years in prison. It wasn't immediately known if he had retained an attorney.
