I see the end value in all those except "steal your data and sell it". What are they stealing and who are they selling it too and what do those people do with your bought data?
Also I know how botnets work, but where is the money in attacking business servers?

Why do they send spam from other websites? What is the benefit to sending spam from a hacked site as opposed to one you just register yourself?

So the end game would be to transfer money out of bank accounts and paypal? Is it really that easy to do. Seems like it would leave one hell of a trail.
Whats the end game in stealing domain names and hacking sites. There has got to be a financial motivator somewhere in the chain.
Thanks for the info.

I don't doubt it. Any tool that aggregates functionality and is as popular as the iphone will be tops in all catagories, phone, camera, video, browser.

What do they do with it? Apply for credit? Take out a loan? Even if they had someones bank account login information, is it really easy to drain an account? My bank certainly doesn't allow an online transfer to another account or location.
