China's Cyber Police Detain Teenage Hacker

Peopledaily.com, 2/7/02
<a href="http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200202/06/eng20020206_89991.shtml">http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200202/06/eng20020206_89991.shtml>

Chinese cyber police have detained a 17-year-old suspect following an
Internet offense and closed his website. Police in Heilongjiang
Province, northeast China, say the amended law states an Internet
offender can be penalized by up to five years in prison.

Chinese cyber police have detained a 17-year-old suspect following an
Internet offense and closed his website.

Police in Heilongjiang Province, northeast China, say the amended law
states an Internet offender can be penalized by up to five years in
prison.

The suspect Chi Yongshu is a high school student in Qitaihe, a city in
the east of Heilongjiang. He admits stealing data, spreading a computer
virus and carrying out illegal deals.

Local police say records show Chi's website, www.cnhunk.com, has caused
damage to computers of over 110,000 Internet users since last December.

Chi, who compiled a homepage in August 2001, said he linked his website
to a program with devastating codes, which make computers breakdown and
lose data whenever an Internet user logs onto the webpage.

Chi has also violated others' privacy by deciphering over 5,000 icq
numbers and their passwords.

In addition, Chi has made 2,950 yuan (355 U.S. dollars) by cheating at
game websites.

Internet crimes in China

Sources with the Information Security Supervision Bureau of the Ministry
of Public Security said, in recent years occasionally Internet crimes
have caused damages to the computers of government, businesses,
commercial websites and Internet users.

Police said they will make further efforts to curb Internet crimes, but
also warn users not to use pirated security products.

The number of China's web users had increased to over 33.7 million by
the end of 2001.
