Boom Times for Eastern European Hi-tech Phishing Fraudsters
Quote:One area turning out to be a hotbed of hi-tech crime is Eastern Europe. Enormously successful tech savvy gangs have been traced to Russia, Romania, Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

...each phishing gang is making between $100,000 to $300,000 per month.

...there are between 50 and 60 Eastern European groups involved in phishing. Approximately 75% of all the phishing e-mails sent out originate from only 42 of these crime groups.
