Forget the EBCD spam, use System Rescue CD instead, don't give out your credit card number to Eastern Europeans

Ukrainians after that story about 40 million credit card numbers being

hacked and sold by Eastern Europeans (Ukraine)?? Read the story here:

Are you really that biased against Ukrainians? From the article:

 

"Under the indictments unsealed Tuesday, three of the defendants are

U.S. citizens, one is from Estonia, three are from Ukraine, two are from

China and one is from Belarus."

 

Note that there are just as many US citizens involved as there are

Ukrainians.

If you actually did a lookup on the IP address, it's from the Ukraine.

Funny you snipped your own post:

 

"And you *really* insane enough to give your credit card to the

Ukrainians after that story about 40 million credit card numbers being

hacked and sold by Eastern Europeans (Ukraine)?? Read the story here:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26041151/"

 

You were talking about who did it, not where they did it, "hacked and

sold by Eastern Europeans (Ukraine)??" when, in fact, three US citizens

were also involved in the "hacking and selling" as well as the other

nationalities mentioned in the article you cited.

Does missing the forest for the trees mean anything to you?

 

In the story from MSNBC, it clearly states:

 

"[O]ne is from Estonia, three are from Ukraine, two are from China and

one is from Belarus. One individual is only known by an alias online,

and his place of origin is unknown." Three are from the Ukraine. It's

staring you right in the face.

 

Here's a paragraph from another source:

 

"Three of those charged are U.S. citizens while the others are from

places such as Estonia, Ukraine, Belarus and China."

So yes, I *was* referring to where they come from. That spam

originated from the Ukraine.

No, you weren't. You were referring to who did it. Reread your post.

I don't see the problem. Actually investigating the owner of the EBCD

web site revealed to me that it was from Ukraine. So, because I had

actually bothered to do this, cited the story where they clearly state

three Ukrainians were arrested (not in the US), and posted a warning,

perhaps not explicitly, that EBCD was a Ukrainian web site and to not

give your credit card to them because of the recent arrests, you're

still arguing with me?

 

Three Ukrainians (amongst others) being busted for credit card number

theft just the day prior (to the EBCD spam) and suddenly one pops up a

day later to a Microsoft newsgroup where average Joe and Jane user

visit and ask for advice and who would probably see this advert and

use a credit card to buy it? I'm sure that's just coincidence.
