FBI and Romanian Police break two phishing rings.

In a press release today, the FBI said that in cooperation with the Romanian Prosecutor General they'd arrested 38 people who'd been running phishing rings. According to the FBI, the people arrested had sent out millions of phishing spam messages which tricked recipients into providing personal financial details.

Romania has for many years been a major source of criminal spam, and it is encouraging to hear that the Romanian authorities are cracking down on it.
