"Ancheta boasted about the ease with which adware firms could be hoodwinked, the government's indictment said. In an instant message conversation with an unnamed (and unindicted) co-conspirator living in Florida, Ancheta said "it's easy like slicing cheese." Replied the co-conspirator, named only as "SoBe" in the indictment, "I just hope this lc [LOUDcash] stuff lasts a while so I don't have to get a job right away."

Authorities allege that Ancheta received frequent payments from the adware suppliers via check or through PayPal; the biggest check was for nearly $8,000. The bulk of his illegal earnings came from Gammacash.

"My spending average is $600 a week, every friday [sic] I buy new clothes and every week I buy new parts for my car," Ancheta allegedly wrote SoBe in another AIM message."

Or am I seeing things?
