	Quote: US authorities claimed the gang - known as HerbalKing - "deceptively marketed" the drugs on the internet.

It's hard not to think 'Well, if you are that stupid...' :oops:


	Quote: Mr Atkinson will only have to pay his part of the $15.15m fine if he enters the US. He is yet to pay a fine of $2.2 million he was given in 2005 for similar offences.

That's kinda what I expected, but oh, for a Dark Knight-style extradition :twisted:

Re: Spam boss faces $15m fine.

They should have to pay back equal time. It takes you five seconds to delete every spam email (ish), so they should get five seconds in prison for every spam email they sent. I can't even begin to work out how many centuries inside that would be. :twisted:
