        "Today's charges seek to knock out one of the largest illegal spamming 
        and fraud operations in the country, an international scheme to make money 
        by manipulating stock prices through illegal spam e-mail promotions. </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://detroit.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel08/de010308.htm">The charges arose after a three-year investigation 
        - led by agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with assistance 
        from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Internal Revenue Service 
        - revealed a sophisticated and extensive spamming operation that, as alleged 
        in the indictment, largely focused on running a stock "pump and dump" 
        scheme, whereby the defendants sent spam touting thinly traded Chinese 
        penny stocks, drove up their stock price, and reaped profits by selling 
        the stock at artificially inflated prices. </blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://us.f367.mail.yahoo.com/ym/ShowLetter?MsgId=2200_14018143_80745_4487_1902_0_817486_6594_3624994600&Idx=2&YY=74086&y5beta=yes&y5beta=yes&inc=200&order=down&sort=date&pos=0&view=a&head=b&box=Inbox" href="http://us.f367.mail.yahoo.com/ym/ShowLetter?MsgId=2200_14018143_80745_4487_1902_0_817486_6594_3624994600&Idx=2&YY=74086&y5beta=yes&y5beta=yes&inc=200&order=down&sort=date&pos=0&view=a&head=b&box=Inbox" style="font-size: 11px;">us.f367.mail.yahoo.com</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://us.f367.mail.yahoo.com/ym/ShowLetter?MsgId=2200_14018143_80745_4487_1902_0_817486_6594_3624994600&Idx=2&YY=74086&y5beta=yes&y5beta=yes&inc=200&order=down&sort=date&pos=0&view=a&head=b&box=Inbox"><P>On January 3, 11 people from around the world were charged with using botnets to run what is billed as one of the largest illegal spamming operations in the nation.</P></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://detroit.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel08/de010308.htm" href="http://detroit.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel08/de010308.htm" style="font-size: 11px;">detroit.fbi.gov</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://detroit.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel08/de010308.htm">
