NOTE FROM ANDY:
Last week, several people were arrested in
a sting involving what’s believed to be a
multi-million-dollar global identity
theft/credit card fraud ring. The hackers
hail from all over the world, including
Russia, Lithuania, China, and yes, Miami.
Let’s immortalize these exploits in song!
