A Really High Class Act
Man Charged With Cruel Con To Obtain Kiddie Porn From Victims:
A California man has been arrested on federal child pornography charges for allegedly posing as a terminally ill teen-ager to persuade sympathetic young girls to send him nude photos of themselves.
Well, it beats offering to meet them at Burger King to put on a show.

And it turns out there is another high tech impediment to those seeking a hot time online. Aftenposten (Norway) reports Rampant cordless keyboard strikes again:
Are Wormnes got a shock when his neighbor Ørjan Stokkeland rang him up and asked him if he by any chance was writing a letter to telephone company Telenor.

Wormnes can be thankful for a considerate neighbor - everything he was typing on his computer could have been read.
"Hey baby, want to see my weapon of mass destruction?" - nope, it was just the phone company.
