Special thanks to the good guys at Websense and the PIRT guys at
CastleCOPS PIRT.

I guess jokes about Vishing with a heavy Russian accent were good, too
bad
this wave file doesn't have that accent. :)

The attacked party is Santa Barbara Bank & Trust. I suppose the IRS will
also take interest in this.


Dang, I was thinking the msg would be "Please call our support hotline
at 1-900...."

Is someone really sitting at the phone waiting for customers to call
up, or is it an automated greeting that walks you through a "password
reset"?
