Some savvy white-hat hackers track down scammer sweat shops, break into their computer systems, sometimes even their video surveillance systems. Then they get the scammers on the phone,c all them by name, and mess with their heads. The best is when they have such control that they copy the scammers databases, tell them they’re going to erase them, then do it right before their eyes. The consternation of the scammers is priceless!
