After news broke that a Russian pharmaceutical company was trying to scam pensioners, by selling them vitamin pills for more than half their annual pension, Russian bloggers decided to act.

They launched a massive Denial of Service attack which crippled the pharmaceutical company's system.

The best bit? The attack was made up of 21 million telephone calls - the system the bloggers crippled was the company's switchboard, which went into meltdown.
