PT from an article in Nikkan Sports:
A 16-year-old male gamer infatuated with the gothic dress worn by the fictional princess in an online role-playing game has been arrested for hacking into the game company’s servers and scamming a boatload of virtual money.
The game, called Mabinogi, is inspired by Celtic mythology, of South Korean orgin, but played by people all over Asia. The game has a mild following in the United States. While the most of the stolen dough went unused, the suspect allegedly converted part of it into Web money, which he used to purchase books and software.
The suspect has reportedly fessed up to the crime. “I originally wanted the dress worn by the princess,” he admitted, “but I just ended up racking up a bunch of game points.”
