Alleged mobster's sons charged for defrauding DoubleClick (hitbotting?)

Colombo Brothers Charged with Racketeering

Two sons of the late organized crime family boss Joseph Colombo, Sr., have been charged in a racketeering scheme that included defrauding the Internet advertising company DoubleClick out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, prosecutors said on Tuesday.

Does anyone know the details of the DoubleClick fraud charges? Were they using a hitbot?

One allegation is that the brothers and others were involved in scheme defraud DoubleClick by providing kickbacks of at least $90,000 and other favors to a former DoubleClick employee who approved the systematic overbilling of his employer.

So prolly fake invoices for traffic sent?
