Evaldas Rimasauskas pleaded guilty to the scheme last week. A man from Lithuania named Evaldas Rimasauskas pleaded guilty to wire fraud after he was indicted for scamming over $100 million out of companies like Facebook and Google. According to the indictment, filed in New York's Southern District Court on Friday, from 2013 to 2015, Rimasauskas "orchestrated a fraudulent business email compromise scheme to deceive various companies ... into wiring millions of dollars" to a Taiwanese company he was impersonating.

Last week, Rimasauskas submitted his guilty plea to one count of wire fraud. He's
