SPAK has requested the guilty verdict and 6-year prison sentence for Shpend Sokoli, accused of "Computer Fraud" and "Structured Criminal Group".
In the file provided by journalist Anila Hoxha, SPAK and the National Bureau of Investigation, partner law enforcement institutions and the judicial police were informed that since November 2022, the FBI had been investigating an illegal online marketplace called Rydox.
For several months in 2020, Rydox was taken offline, but was re-opened in September 2020. Rydox was advertising on Raidforums, a well-known online criminal forum, offering the sale of spam logs, the tools to send them, and their tutorials.
Rydox also offers the sale of credentials to log in to email accounts, e-commerce accounts, and online dating accounts.
Based on the review of the online site's data, the main users of the online marketplace are cybercrime actors who buy and sell victims' personally identifiable information ("PII") or other information of this nature.
Rydox refers to itself as an “underground online marketplace.”
In February 2023, law enforcement, in coordination with authorities in another country, seized scientific evidence of a server serving rydox.cc.
The databases included information for over 18,000 Rydox user accounts, including usernames and email addresses, virtual currency transactions, packages purchased by the user, as well as data found in these packages purchased by the users, or a link to a file, which is presumed to contain the purchased data.
Through analysis of the Rydox database and further legal proceedings, the FBI was able to identify the three administrators of the Rydox marketplace.
Shpend Sokol, from Kosovo, was one of the developers of the Rydox website, co-owner of the Albanian company Scythe Labs.
Together with two other people, Ardit Kutleshi and Jetmir Kutleshi, he collaborated to carry out this illegal activity while they were under investigation by the FBI.
In continuation of the response to the request for legal assistance, addressed to the justice authorities in the United States of America, other procedural documents and materials have been sent.
From the communication data on the Facebook application, it results that these communications begin on 30.05.2016, where it is noted how the relationship between Ardit Kutleshi and Shpend Sokoli began, the agreement on the role of each and the benefits they would have from their ongoing collaboration.
Also noticeable is the way in which the construction of Rydox began, the programming and construction of each function of Rydox, to be made functional by Shpend Sokoli, according to Ardit Kutleshi's requests.
It is clear, SPAK says, that Shpend Sokoli seeks to receive material profits from their collaboration, as well as other benefits for projects they will do together.
Parts of their communication:
Ardit Kutleshi- how can I do an update, so that I can get fresh users who have reseller 1 every time?
Shpend Sokoli: I hear you.
-here we don't have resellers, we have different usernames, can we write a command that connects to the db to update only those who have resellers 1

Ardit Kutleshi: Sorry, I'm not home yet.
