Search Engine Marketeers are the new script kiddies

I'm totally with sbh here. This title is ridiculous and overblown. What he was dealing with were spammers, not marketers.

My question is, how did the attacker get the victim's ftp password? Packet sniffing or brute-forcing a weak password?

What I think is scary is the idea of a spammer who knows their shit when it comes to programming and security.

Those are the people you never hear about, cause they're in like, Russia, running botnets for the mafia and all that.

Internet is serious bidnis, mayne.

Times like this when I really miss the down-arrow. Way to generalize, asshole.

Yeah, I think they're just normal guys with a hobby.

I was refering to mentioning Russia.

Wow. very interesting and scary, for those of us, like me ,that don't really worry about security.
