Borkowski was taken into FBI custody on Friday morning, and extradited from Warsaw to Dallas over the weekend. He made his initial appearance before Magistrate Judge Renee Harris Toliver on Monday.
According to the indictment, Borkowski allegedly hacked into consumers’ airline miles accounts and used the compromised accounts to book flights for unsuspecting passengers who had purchased travel through Oliver, Lee, Booker, Siddique, and Benton, the other five defendants in the case.
The passengers would send their requested itinerary and personal information to one of the five men who would then send the information and a money order to Borkowski, the indictment alleges.
