Default Japan brings down "Godzilla of Spam"

Japan has arrested the "Godzilla of Spam," who promoted Internet gambling and dating services.

Quote:
Investigators reckon Yuki Shiina, 25, sent as many as 2.2 billion spam messages using what appears to be rudimentary spamming techniques. He allegedly purchased a list of 600,000 email addresses for a pricey ¥100,000 ($927), earning ¥2m ($18,540) through a subsequent spamming campaign, security vendor Sophos reports.
