After conducting a digital forensic investigation, bureau experts found that each computer contains approximately 200 gigabytes of personal information. The criminal ring is suspected of selling personal data beginning from last year to real estate agents and property development companies through a software system it developed to allow these companies to obtain information on landowners and provide ways to contact them. Each set of data was sold for NT$150,000-NT$200,000 (US$4,974-US$6,632).
