According to court documents, Castro wrote software code that manipulated the online retailers checkout page to send the shipping fees into his own account. The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.

Seattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for pennies on the dollar.

According to police, the companys cybersecurity staff found a document on Castros laptop titled OfficeSpace project, which outlined Castros scheme to cleanup evidence by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.

Castro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.

The dude's plan was masterful, but sometimes there's just nothing you can do to escape the long arm of the law.

The dude was literally living a movie, but forgot about the part where the thief fucks up and gets caught.

Yeah but if I recall it resulted in him getting a huge promotion.

Then his boss took the fall and Superman let him off with a war ing because he kept his mouth shut during the switcheroo.

So I guess the moral is steal from your employers?
