UK teen arrested for spamming

The teenager was fired from his $223/week job so, in return, he bombarded the company's servers with 5 million emails, crippling its Web site, CNET reports. All he did was search for a spam tool (software) on the Net, download it, and proceed to send 100 emails a second to his former employer. "He now faces six months in prison or a fine of up to $9,283," CNET adds.
