06 IDG: Fraud, Theft and Sheep in CyberSpace
Thursday 8 August 1963 saw one of the most famous thefts in
British history -- the Great Train Robbery. 50 years later, and while
the medium might have changed, the principle is the same -- on 21
November Sheep Marketplace reported the theft of 5,400 bitcoins --
3.3m at current exchange rates. This week we look at online theft and
fraud; the Global Fraud report, our own investigation into the
sinister side of crowdfunding, as well as a look at 'The Great Bitcoin
Robbery'.
