   I suppose most people know about this, just read an article in NYT, check it   
   out.   
      
   The ring has also been used to run a version of a scheme for collecting   
   credit card information from unwary consumers that has been called the   
   "PayPal scam," Mr. Smith said. The hijacked computers send e-mail messages   
   that purport to come from PayPal, an online payment service owned by eBay,   
   asking recipients to fill out a Web site form with account information.

   Take care,
