FBI Charges HOPE Speaker with Witness Tampering, Obstructing Justice

Brian Krebs writes on Security Fix:

Security Fix obtained a copy of the complaint against "Steven Rambam" the private investigator arrested Saturday at the Hope Number Six hacker conference in New York City. The government document says Rambam is an alias, and that his real name is Steven Rombom, so that is how he'll be referred to here henceforth.

The complaint [.pdf] charges Rombom with obstruction of justice and with witness tampering, alleging that in April 2006 Rombom impersonated a federal investigator at the request of a client who had hired him to locate a government informant who was central to the client's money-laundering indictment in 2003.
