Just a reminder, there's a lottery for the US Welcoming Committee going on!

If you've taken a visit over to where our US Forums should be...., and if you experienced last nights debacle, you should know what I'm talking about.

Now those fools in the middle of nowhere who keep hacking everything left and right,


Yes you!

I just thought you may be interested in what you'll get for what you've done, when you're caught.

"Computer fraud, closely linked to Internet fraud, is defined as 1) the use of a computer or computer system to help execute a scheme or illegal activity and 2) the targeting of a computer with the intent to alter, damage, or disable it. Computer fraud breaks down roughly into three categories:
Theft of information
Theft of or denial of service
Hacking into or damaging a computer’s hardware system"

Punishment:
"A perpetrator of computer of Internet fraud may be found guilty of a felony and face a fine of up to $250,000 and/or up to 20 years in jail. Often, those charged with computer and/or Internet fraud are also charged with wire fraud, mail fraud, conspiracy, identity theft, or other white collar crimes."

Oh, and one more thing:


Of course, to make it erep accurate, we may need to decapitate you.
