Affiliate Webmaster Industry Linked To Organized Crime Ring in NY TIMES

"The creators of the ring, whose identities are unknown, are collecting money from the pornographic sites for signing up customers, the security experts say. Many companies play this role in Internet commerce, getting referral fees for driving customers to sites with which they have no other connection."

"Mr. Smith said he thought the ring could be traced to Russian senders of spam, or unwanted commercial e-mail"

What I do know is that "hacker" is now being associated with "dialer" technology in the most important newspaper in the world.

The coverage is starting...the story will get perverted along each step of the way.

From Slashdot:

<b>NYT Reports Porn Spam Hijacking Network</b>
Posted by michael on Friday July 11, @10:30AM
from the fit-to-print dept.
twitter writes "This NYT story describes how thousands of PCs have been used as porn spambots and reverse proxy servers, and mentions that they could be used for kiddie porn. Finally, though Microsoft is not mentioned, people might start to understand what a monoculture of poor quality software enables."

Boogie Man Porn Hackers

People are sneaking around looking at porn at home and on their jobs..and download dialers and "Porn Toolbar Browsers" .

And blame it on hackers once they get busted with porn at work..or their wives see "Porn" charges on their credit card bills.

Yep. And just another stupid excuse for users to charge back these supposedly "fraudulent" charges.

Yeah..and the most fucked up part about the entire article..is that the people that write these articles "Pass" themselves off as "Computer Experts" and get paid for it!!!

These "Boogie Man Porn Hackers" supposedly make these innocent victims pull out their credit cards and join porn sites..lolol and Jack-off for about a month and then play stupid when they get billed!!!

Thanks to Migmaf, you could be serving porn (unintentionally, that is)

Posted 7/11/2003 - 12:37PM, by Ken "Caesar" Fisher
Hacking computers for spamming is nothing new, but the stakes are getting a little higher as a new scheme uses unsuspecting hosts to serve up porn. Essentially what we have are porn spammers who are hacking machines via a trojan app to host the actual porn for use in attracting new clients. They then earn money from referral fees. It's also said that this same scheme is being used to perpetuate PayPal scams. With a network of hacked machines, the criminals in question can rotate through the machines to make detection much more difficult, while spreading out the bandwidth hit to a level that's probably difficult to detect. Still, there's a flaw in the ring.

That's not talking about dialers, it sounds like they're talking about some adware/browser hijacking bullshit. Hey Ron, isn't that you're latest venture?

The problem is that the entire story is biased to begin with. Look at the picture of the supposed "hacker"...what is he wearing on his face... a welders mask?
