Oh dear. Some people are just too stupid. It seems that a congressional aid attempted to solicit the services of a hacker to alter his grades. Unfortunately, he chose to do so by e-mailing the security site attrition.org. The complete transcript is up, but it has been slashdotted. I post here some excerpts:

I need to urgently make contact with a hacker that would be interested in doing a one-time job for me. The pay would be good. I'm not sure what exactly the job would entail with respect to computer jargon, but I can go into rough detail upon making contact with a candidate. Thanks for your help.security curmudgeon
So, I need three things to make this happen:1. A picture of a squirrel or pigeon on your campus. One close-up, one with background that shows buildings, a sign, or something to indicate you are standing on the campus.
2. The information I mentioned so I can find the records once I get into the database.
3. Some idea of what I get for all my trouble.

Too stupid. Way too stupid. I don't even think that this qualifies for the 'culture of corruption' category.
