I gave a call to the lawfirm and their answer was far different.
This nefarious spam crashed their email server and completely blocked their
telephone service.
What remains of a lawfirm when it is without phonelines and email?
They were already investigating and I'm quite sure that they'll sue the
spammer if they can find him. I believe we'll hear of this case in the
future in the general media.
