The site sexygirls.com promised subscribers free pornography and all you had to do was to download the customized viewer.
|
|
The "viewer" on being downloaded, turned off the modem's speaker, disconnected you from the Internet and redialed to Moldavia. Then you did get the promised pornography but also a huge phone bill for international calls (presumably many dollars per minute)
|
|
Moldavian phone company, the sexygirls website and the American phone split the proceeds of these bills!
|
|
This is a "security hole" that exists today in phone system outside the internet
