This is really off topic but it deals with spammers and a pump and dump
stock scheme so there might be some relevance.

: I just have to share this.
:
: Are you perturbed by all the SPAM your receive?
:
: So was one grumpy Sys Admin when a SPAMer used his servers as SPAM relay.
:
: "Ok," he figured, "I left the door open. Guess I deserve that. Sorta."
:
: After he'd closed the security hole they exploited, they next used his
: domain as the return address for millions of SPAM messages.  First he
: got a bazillion "email failed" messages, then a lot of angry letters
: from people who thought he originated the spam.
:
: Well, he got real mad.  Then he got even.  He hacked backwards into
: the SPAMer's computer.  Yes, it's not that hard to do, if your victim
: is online running Windows9x.  Easier still if they're on AOL, but
: you already knew that.  The angry sysadmin wandered around on the
: SPAMer's hard disk, ultimately uploading copies of a lot of the
: Spammers private files.  Very Private Files.  Pix and ICQ logs...
:
: Oh, the SPAMmer was female, leader of a ring of Tennessee Trailer
: Trash housewife types who collectively generate millions of SPAM
: messages a week.  If you've gotten SPAM offering you the service
: of sending out SPAM on your behalf, it might have been them.
:
: They had fun with their computers and digital cameras... and even
: had some unclothed pix of themselves on one of the systems....
: which have been downloaded and posted to the net.  In several places.
:
: The Sysadmin posted the tale of what happened, and why.  He also
: posted the pix.
:
: It's astonishing how many people wanna see a Tennessee Trailer
: Trash SPAMer's Very Pale Tush and .....
:
: An idea this good in SPAM fighting got slashdotted, no surprise.

:
: An idea this good in SPAM fighting got mirrors, as folks
: volunteer their bandwidth and disk space to spread the word.
:   Sometimes the mirrors get shut down because of heavy traffic
:   (The server load can be overwhelming). Still, clicking in to
:   see the tale and the tail does send a message.
:   (Did you hear about the two SPAMers who were shot to death by
:    someone who didn't like their business?)
:
: Don't SPAM.  I'm not advocating anything, but you just never know
: what an angry anti-SPAMer might do.
