Yep, fraud in my book. (Score 1)

It seems that fraud using email is legal because the email system is far more invisible than post mail, but fraud should be fraud shouldn't it?

If the law can't realize that fraud is just as important with email addresses as it is with legal tender, then there's never any hope for a decent spam bill, because it only goes to show they don't understand the technology or its importance enough.

And that's not even mentioning the social security numbers...
