The FBI just released the grand jury indictment of a man who allegedly hacked into the email accounts of 50 victims, including dozens of celebrities.

The indictment was issued against 35-year-old Christopher Chaney of Jacksonville, Florida. He was arrested this morning by FBI agents, on charges of identity theft, wiretapping and other charges.

According to federal officials, Chaney would use public information to access email accounts of his alleged victims, and then access computers and cell phones under the control of his victims.

Some of the alleged victims include Christina Aguilera, Scarlett Johansson, Mila Kunis, and celebrity stylist Simone Harouche. Some of the ill-gotten materials included naked photos.
 

Law enforcement sources claim Chaney allegedly acted alone, and got no money for his alleged misdeeds — rather, he did it for the thrill.

Chaney appeared before a judge this afternoon in Florida and was released on a $10,000 bond. As part of his release, the judge banned Chaney from using ANY computer device that has Internet access. Chaney is also prohibited from using drugs and possessing firearms.

The most embarrassing part … he's been ordered to live with his parents.
 

According to court records, obtained by TMZ … Christopher Howard Chaney plead guilty to mail fraud in federal court in Florida back in 1998 … for stealing money from Prudential life insurance policy holders in a diabolical plan he executed with a friend back in 1997.

Court docs reveal … Chaney had a pal who worked for Prudential, and that guy would identify Prudential Life Insurance customers who had names similar to Chaney's.

Chaney would then fill out paperwork, posing as his victims … and took money out of their policies … thousands of dollars at a time.

Chaney — who was a teenager when he was involved in the scam — was convicted … and sentenced to 48 months probation and ordered to return the money he stole.

Now, Chaney is back in the criminal system — accused of hacking 50 people, mostly famous people, and leaking VERY private information to the web … including nude photos of Scarlett Johansson, Vanessa Hudgens and more.
 

He has since been release from federal custody. If convicted he could face up tot 121 years in prison.
