Seattle Tech Worker Inspired By 'Office Space' Nets $300,000 In
Alleged Software Scheme
https://komonews.com/news/local/seattle-tech-worker-charged-for-theft-inspi…
A Seattle tech worker was charged this week in a criminal theft scheme
which netted around $300,000 from his employer.
28-year-old Ermenildo Castro of Tacoma allegedly told detectives he
was inspired by the 90's movie "Office Space" when he allegedly wrote
software code to manipulate shipping fees paid to his employer,
Zulily.com, to go into his own bank accounts.
According to KOMO news, citing court documents, Castro netted around
$260,000 in shipping fees.
What's more, he used his position as a software engineer to alter the
price of around $41,000 in merchandise for 'pennies on the dollar.'
According to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a
document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which
outlined Castro’s 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.

discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report. -KOMO
Investigators for the company eventually caught on to Castro's scheme
and visited his house, where they found several boxes of merchandise
piled up in the driveway and around the front door.
He claimed the orders, which included more than 1,000 items, were sent
to his house in error.
"When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that
once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’," reads the police
report.
Seattle police wrote a narrative on how Castro's alleged scheme was
like "Office Space."
“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His
best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir
Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael
and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the
banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial
operation into Peter’s account. However[,] Michael commits a mistake
in the software on the decimal place and they siphon off over
$300,000. The desperate trio tries to fix the problem, return the
money and avoid going to prison.”
Apparently Castro thought he could avoid 'pound me in the ass prison.'
