Korean police on January 30 arrested two suspected suspects of the biggest spam attack in the history of the "kimchi country".

South Korean police say there have been at least 12,000 South Korean victims in the biggest spam attack in Asian history. As a result, there were many personal financial information in the hands of the above two suspects.

These guys then sold that information to a rental service company for $ 106,400.
