>> role in a scheme to steal credit card numbers from the Lowe's chain of
>> home improvement stores by taking advantage of an unsecured Wi-Fi
>> network
>> at a store in suburban Detroit.

>> ......
>> While the hackers took in a film, Lowe's network security team poured

>> log files and found the bugged program, which had collected only six
>> credit card numbers.

>> Botbyl and Timmins, known online as "noweb4u" and "itszer0"
>> respectively,
>> are part of the Michigan 2600 hacker scene - an informal collection of
