I'm curious. Where does Secret Service authority end, and FBI authority begin? Wasn't the bust in Lubbock for the same reason, and by the SS? FBI has authority for all kinds of computer crime. SS has limited and overlapping authority for some kinds of computer crime deriving ultimately (with some tortured logic) from their control of the currency. Bruce provides a description and history of how and why the SS is involved in computer crimes in his book "Hacker Crackdown". -lar
