Ott worked (apparently) for the Austrian intelligence agency, the BVT. He was good friends with his boss, Martin Weiss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After leaving the agency, they both started to work for Marsalek and Wirecard. Weiss acted as the conduit for orders issued from Marsalek to Ott and the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the British MI5, they had become aware of a network of at least 5 Bulgarian citizens who allegedly carried out missions at the request of Marsalek. MI5 provided this information, along with many chat messages to their Austrian counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chat messages pointed to multiple missions having been carried out by Ott and accomplices; They broke into an apartment belonging to a Bulgarian investigative journalist and stole a laptop. They also stole data from cellphones belonging to Austrian officials. And many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funding for these operations, it is alleged, was provided by Marsalek who used Wirecard\u2019s payment
