ALBUQUERQUE – Michael Weber, 22, of Alamogordo, N.M, made his initial appearance this afternoon in federal court in Albuquerque, N.M., on a criminal complaint charging him with a computer fraud offense.
Weber remains in federal custody pending a preliminary hearing and a detention hearing, both of which are scheduled for tomorrow.

FBI agents arrested Weber early this morning at a residence in Alamogordo. According to the criminal complaint, Weber allegedly placed a program,
information, code, or command known as a “spam bot” onto a government-issued cellular phone assigned to Weber’s supervisor on Jan. 16, 2018.
The “spam bot” allegedly caused the cellular phone to receive a long string of messages allegedly intended to cause damage to the cellular phone. At the time he allegedly committed the offense, Weber was an Airman with the U.S.A.F. & was stationed at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M.
The statutory penalty for a conviction on the computer fraud offense is a maximum of ten years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Charges in criminal complaints are merely accusations and defendants are presumed innocent unless found guilty in a court of law.
This case was investigated by the Albuquerque office of the FBI and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Sean J. Sullivan.
