Greek police have arrested a 35-year-old programmer suspected of stealing the personal data of nine million people or two-thirds of the population of the country.
According to investigators he tried to sell the stolen information which included residential addresses, personal tax numbers and the registration numbers of vehicles.
The police are still trying to figure out how he managed to steal the data.
The programmer was arrested but so far no charges have been filed against him.
