FBI agents confronted Hernandez about his hacking in 2017, according to a prosecution press release, and secured a promise from Hernandez "to stop any further malicious activity."

Is it common for the FBI to knock on criminals' doors and ask them to cut it out?

Nintendo is the least of his worries given that BAD STUFF folder.

As this didn’t seem to be for profit, what are the prospects on obtaining the $260,000 judgment?
