Almost everyone read that the author of the worm that targetted Twitter, Michael Mooney, had two proposals to work in large IT companies, after crashing Tweet-fest last week. Does crime really pays?

9 years ago, another Michael aka Mafiaboy, also committed the crime of attacking huge sites like yahoo, ebay, cnn, amazon, and others and now is writing books about the crime he commited.

I specially don’t like twitter. Still didn’t got the idea of Why? What for? Does the public-target needs to know that we are walking, eating, cracking, programming, …

People, twitter has big holes and new worms will appear in the next days or weeks. Don’t click on links, don’t view profiles. Almost all of them rely on Javascript so unable it on your browser.

The picture shows part of Mikeyy worm code.

UPDATE

According to zdnet, Michael Money was hired by exqSolutions.

Also in full disclosure mailing list, Michael was hacked and all his passwords gone public. This was done by bin/sh crew, a new group that said, I quote “…his 5 minutes of fame is gunna be a whole lotta shame…”. You can read more about this here.
