Angelo Martino was charged with partnering with two Blackcat/ALPHV affiliates to conduct ransomware attacks between April 2023 and April 2025 while working as a ransomware negotiator for DigitalMint. The charge was one count of conspiracy to interfere with interstate commerce by extortion while allegedly working with Ryan Goldberg and Kevin Martin, both of whom plead guilty to related charges in December 2025. Martino is believed to have been the ‘Co-Conspirator 1’ listed in that case.
