Am I missing something, or has Perlmonks really slid this far down?

Slid so far down as to discuss technical means of subverting internet scam artists intent on stealing bank accounts from unsuspecting grandmothers?

What I will comment on is how completely futile your efforts are.

Got to agree with that... I myself have said as much in this thread.

all they have to do is block every ip with more than 2 form submissions

Not if they hope to get more than one set of credentials from an ISP that uses proxy servers like, for one small example, AOL. And, as tachyon mentioned, IP spoofing might be helpful in that regard.

I won't comment on the possible legal ramifications of this post

So, you would be worried that these thieving scumbags would run to the law and file a grievance alleging you attempted to disrupt their scam to steal bank accounts?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
