Every now and again you hear stories of people trying to screw others, and the wronged, using the power of the internet, get revenge. A few months ago there was a similar situation involving truck parts (Charlie Wenzel), the infamous p-p-p-powerbook!, etc.
The latest in this line is where someone stole a cellphone, and refused to return it. Right afterwards, one of the first things the wronged (or rather her friend), was setup a webpage and made sure the link makes the rounds. Viral marketing at its best takes over, and before long thousands of people are reading and following along. People have located and are staking out the thief, tons of harassment, etc. Its hilarious to me to see how quickly it spread, and the levels its escalated to. Hell, the guy has made 2 forums crash, and in less than a day used 5 gigs of bandwidth for a simple page. Just wild…
