    Smile If you must steal, remember who you stole from

    Found this article about a credit card fraudster had the tables turned on him by one of his victims.

    I can't decide if she's really smart, or if he's just a complete moron.

    Hehe, it also says the father is a computer engineer.. So surely he would have the common sense to have an up-to-date virus scan and firewall??... If he knows his profession well, I guess he should have noticed something was wrong by checking his logs. Or at least told his daughter not to accept files from strangers off the net.
    /me thinks Mr. Athi had better read into computer security.

    Haha, there are so many morals to this story it's hard to know where to begin. But the cool thing to me is that a girl that young was slick enough to convince him to fill out a quiz w/ that much info, particularly as he should know better than anyone what having that much personal info online can mean. w0000t for geek girls
