ATM Jackpotting, FBI Bank Warning, Cyber Crime
The FBI has issued a confidential alert to international banks regarding a coordinated "ATM jackpotting" attack. This cyber crime involves hacking into a bank's system to force machines to dispense all their cash in minutes. Unlike credit card skimming, this method targets the bank's internal software, potentially allowing criminals to empty hundreds of machines simultaneously.
FBI Cyber Most Wanted, Identity Theft, Pop-up Scams
The FBI has expanded its "Cyber Most Wanted" list to include ten fugitives. The crimes listed range from sophisticated identity theft to relatively minor offenses like selling "Lover Spy" software and running pop-up advertisement scams. The hosts question the use of federal resources to pursue individuals involved in $89 software sales or phone-bill redirection.
FBI official Sean Henry appears on C-SPAN to discuss the $11 billion budget requested for cyber security and the threat of a "cascading effect" if the electrical grid is hacked. The hosts analyze the call-in segment, where one viewer challenges the FBI on U.S. hacking activities and another warns of a "red alert" regarding electromagnetic pulses (EMP) from solar flares. They encourage listeners to call into C-SPAN to propagate the No Agenda formula.
