Yesterday afternoon in Clevland Ohio the FBI arrested a man on blackmail charges relating to the AIDS trojan program sent out from the UK in December. The suspect, Dr Popp aged 39, was arrested at his parents residence. He will appear in court today on the blackmail charge and extradition procedures are under way. ========================================================================= I wonder if anybody out there knows anything more about the gentelman concerned with this event. If so please email me and I will summarise. Alan Jay PS I think it is interesting that unlike the recent 'internet' case that the charge is blackmail. I suspect that this is due to the current state of UK law. - -- Alan Jay - Editor Connectivity The IBM PC User Group, PO Box 360, Tel. 01-863 1191 Fax: 01-863 6095 Harrow HA1 4LQ, ENGLAND Email: alanj@ibmpcug.CO.UK Path: ..!ukc!ibmpcug!alanj *** For all users of IBM PC & ALL Compatibles *** (+ Standard Disclaimer)
