When racy photos of squeaky clean 'Hannah Montana' starlet Miley Cyrus hit the Internet earlier this year, the hacker who posted them boasted he would never be caught.

It turns out he was wrong.

Nineteen-year-old Josh Holly told Wired.com that his Murfreesboro, Tenn.home was raided by the FBI on Monday, during which the authorities seized three computers and a cell phone.

"I was just kind of shaking. I was thrown way off guard," he told Wired.com. "I guess somebody ended up ratting me out."

Holly says he obtained the images of Cyrus with a bare midriff and blowing kisses from an email account she used last December.

Cyrus, who was also photographed shirtless by celebrity photographer Annie Liebowitz for Vanity Fair magazine, apologized to her preteen fans for the photos, calling them "silly, inappropriate shots."
