Phishers Found

July 18, 2007 8:53:52.661

About a week ago, we had some phishing files uploaded to the Wiki - which caused us a bit of grief. Today, I see that the Italian police have found the people behind the scam:

The Guardia di Finanza (Military Financial Police) cuffed 18 Italian citizens and eight Eastern Europeans as part of "Phish and Chip", an operation aimed at dismantling a gang targeting users of Poste Italiane's home banking services.

I'll have to keep monitoring the Wiki though - it's not like these are the only bad actors out there.
