The Year of 2008 In Cybercrime 47
BobB-nw writes "Underground botnet markets and high-profile spam cases headlined the year in tech crime. One of the most disturbing cybercrime trends in 2008, many security analysts say, has been the emergence of a full-blown underground economy where credit card information, identity theft information, and spam and phishing software are all available for relatively low prices. 2008 also saw major developments in the cases against three major spammers in the United States."

How about "nano" that seems to be a popular word, or "solution".
"Hyper" is a bit out of fashion.
"Nanocrime" just rolls of the tongue.
Course we could just call it "crime" or "fraud" to fit what it really is no matter the medium but that doesn't sound so cool.
