	+> Feb, 1993 : Spreading Viruses
	+> Personal Computer World Magazine
	+
	+We are a bunch of programmers who, depressed with the lack of viruses that
	+have originated in England, have sought to change matters. We presently
	+write viruses for the PC, Archimedes and Atari ST. We have increased the few
	+viruses written in England by about 25, though this number is increasing all
	+the time as our programmers churn out more quality computer viruses.
	+Although there are many viruses about we hope to dominate the UK 'market'.
	+Won't it be nice, though, for England to have at least one export? Finally,
	+we as an organisation like to stress that, contrary to public opinion, we are
	+not boring people who wear anoraks, nor are we depraved people who were
	+beaten as children and so grew up with a hatred of humanity. We are highly
	+intelligent and good at programming and are just ordinary people. But we are
	+gonna get you soon!

	+
	+> 4 Feb, 1993 : Apache scalps virus cowboys
	+
	+Police raided the homes of suspected computer virus authors across the
	+country last week, arresting five people and seizing equipment. "The raids
	+were carried out last Wednesday by police in Manchester, Cumbria,
	+Staffordshire and Devon and Cornwall." Scotland Yard's computer crimes unit
	+co-ordinated the raids under the codename Operation Apache. A spokeswoman for
	+the Greater Manchester Police said: 'The investigation began in the
	+Manchester area following the arrest of the self-styled president of the
	+virus writing group in Salford last December.' Police would not reveal the
	+man's name, but said he had been released on bail. "Last week's raids led to
	+the arrest of a further two people in Manchester. Three other suspects were
	+also arrested in Staffordshire, Cumbria and Cornwall." PCs and floppy disks
	+were seized in all the raids. "All those arrested have been released on
	+police bail pending further investigations."
	+
	+> 4 Feb, 1993 : UK Virus Writers Group Foiled by Scotland Yard
	+
	+British police have arrested four members of a virus-writing group that calls
	+itself the Association of Really Cruel Viruses (ARCV).
	+
	+The Scotland Yard Computer Crime Unit coordinated the raids carried out on
	+suspects in Greater Manchester, Staffordshire, Devon, and Cornwall. The
	+arrests last Wednesday, January 27, bring to six the number of ARCV members
	+found by police, after they initially arrested one caught "phreaking" in
	+Manchester in December. ("Phone phreaking" is the illegal practice of
	+obtaining free use of telephone lines.) The arrests were made under Section 3
	+of the Computer Misuse Act, which prohibits unauthorized modification of
	+computer material, said Detective Sergeant Stephen Littler. The suspects, who
	+cannot be identified at this stage under British law, have been released on
	+bail pending inquiries and may face further charges.
	+
	+The members of ARCV used PCs to write viruses, which they shared via a
	+bulletin board operated by one suspect in Cornwall. The police confiscated
	+hardware and software, which is being studied by virus experts to determine
	+how many viruses were written and what the viruses were intended to do,
	+Littler said. The British anti-virus community became aware of ARCV through
	+the group's own publicity efforts, such as a newsletter that it had uploaded
	+to various bulletin boards in the U.S., according to Richard Ford, editor of
	+the monthly "Virus Bulletin", which is published in Abingdon, Oxon, England.
	+The newsletter was described in detail in the November, 1992, issue of "Virus
	+Bulletin".
	+
	+To the best of my knowledge, none of their viruses are in the wild, out
	+there spreading" said Ford. But they have been found on virus exchange
	+bulletin board services, and we've had reports of them being uploaded rather
	+widely in the UK. ARCV claims, in its newsletter, to have links with
	+PHALCON/SKISM in the U.S. and other virus writers in Eastern Europe. "The
	+world is a very small place when you've got a modem, or are on the Internet",
	+Ford said. The newsletter invites new members to join even if they are not
	+virus writers but prefer other "underground" activities such as hacking and
	+phreaking. It also betrays ARCV's fears of being perceived as nerds (a term
	+not used in Britain) saying, "Now the picture put out by the Anti- Virus
	+Authors is that Virus writers are Sad individuals who wear Anoraks and go
	+Train Spotting but well they are sadly mistaken, we are very intelligent,
	+sound minded, highly trained, and we wouldn't be seen in an Anorak or near an
	+Anorak even if dead."
	+
	+ARCV has already failed at one of the objectives mentioned in its premier
	+newsletter issue, which said, "We will be dodging Special Branch and New
	+Scotland Yard as we go."

	+Police have arrested Britain's first computer virus-writing group in an
	+operation they hope will dampen the aspirations of any potential high-tech
	+criminals. Four members of the Association of Really Cruel Viruses (ARCV)
	+were raided last Wednesday in a joint operation in four cities co-ordinated
	+by Scotland Yard's computer crimes unit. The arrests in Greater Manchester,
	+Cumbria, Staffordshire and Devon and Cornwall, bring to six the members of
	+the group that have been tracked down by police. Two others, also writing for
	+ARCV, were arrested a month ago in Manchester. This six are thought to have
	+written between 30 and 50 relatively harmless viruses....

	+
	+About the same time, a hacker was arrested for stealing phone service from
	+his neighbor's line and his equipment confiscated, too. The hacker turned out
	+to be Apache Warrior, a member of the small United Kingdom virus-writing
	+group called ARCV (for Association of Really Cruel Viruses).
	+
	+Some background information not included in the book: Alan Solomon was
	+apparently able to convince New Scotland Yard's computer crime unit that they
	+should also try to prosecute Apache Warrior as a virus-writer and that the
	+rest of the group should be rounded up, too. In conversation, Solomon has
	+said Apache Warrior turned over the names of other group members.
	+Subsequently, New Scotland Yard and local constabularies conducted raids at
	+multiple sites in England, arresting another man. Paradoxically, prior to the
	+arrests, Solomon joked that ARCV was better at cyber-publicity than virus
	+programming and its creations were little more than petty menaces. The book
	+offers no reported incidences of ARCV viruses on the computers of others,
	+although Virus News International, by extension S&S International, solicited
	+readers for such evidence in 1993.

	+
	+Hello All,
	+
	+I was recently contacted by DC Noel Bonczoszek of the Computer Crimes Unit at
	+New Scotland Yard in London. As some of you may be aware, Noel is one of the
	+folks responsible for arresting the members of ARCV, a UK-based group of
	+virus-writers. He would like to speak with anyone who suffered an infection
	+from any of their viruses. If you have been infected by one of their
	+viruses, or know of someone who has, then please give him a call at +44 (71)
	+230-1177 during office hours (GMT), or send him a fax at +44 (71) 230-1275.
	+
	+Please bear in mind that I'm only forwarding this message for DC Bonczoszek.
	+If you have any questions, please contact him directly.
