We were talking about this at the CND conference in NY last week; apparently, this is the second major Russian spammer to be murdered in such a fashion.

Chatter has it that spamming is so lucrative in Russia that the mob wants a cut - they probably don't take kindly to being told "no" and went Soprano on the spammers to teach others a "lesson".

Cheers,

Ted
