Microsoft offering $250K for Rustock Botnet info

Know what that smell is. It's the sweet smell of cash dangling in front of your nose. Monday the senior attorney of Microsoft's Digital Crimes Unit, Richard Boscovich, said that he wants to give you or anyone else up to $250,000 USD for new information leading to the identification, arrest and criminal conviction of those behind the Rustock botnet. That's serious cash, and Microsoft means serious business.
“This reward offer stems from Microsoft's recognition that the Rustock botnet is responsible for a number of criminal activities and serves to underscore our commitment to tracking down those behind it,” he said in a blog.
