Aston Martin Dealers charged with spying on rivals
The owners of a New York-based luxury car dealership that sells Bentleys and Aston Martins were charged with corporate espionage against a rival that sells Ferraris and Maseratis.
Thom Weidlich and David Glovin reported on the Bloomberg website that the owners of Universal Autosports LLC were arrested at their homes, accused of illegally tapping into the e-mails of a rival Ferrari Maserati dealership on more than 2,000 occasions between February and September last year. They apparently used the information gained to undercut the competitors.
The maximum penalty if they’re found guilty is five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
