Whenever you see one of these, the two options you consider should be:

    1.	Reply by email to the originator, and root at the same site.
	Politely mention your displeasure, and the illegality of the scam.

	Thomas has now lost his account.

    2.	Ignore the article.

seen a similar article in r.a.i-f. No, really :-)

ObIF:

	try "kiss my ass" in infocom games (trinity at least)
