NYPOST.COM Regional News: SPAMMER GETS MESSAGE By DAVID TOBENKIN
Topic: Miscellaneous 10:59 pm EDT, May 18, 2003

] TO have any chance of making easy money on the Internet,
] computer geek Howard Carmack knew he had to send more
] than a million junk e-mails every day.
]
] And to avoid being detected by Internet companies that
] try to block the nuisance messages, he needed to become
] devious.
]
] So to keep his annoying spam flowing across the Web and
] into the in-boxes of hundreds of thousands of e-mail
] users, the 36-year-old stole the identities of strangers
] and hacked into their e-mail accounts, investigators have
] learned - and he also betrayed members of his own family.
]
] Carmack not only stole his uncle Joseph's identity; his
] mentally disabled brother, James Jr., was also a victim,
] according to court papers.

Ooh, this guy is a real winner.
