David Weisner writes, in a message forwarded by Brad Dolan:

"Already, Fuentes said, federal authorities in New York are investigating whether programmers hired to write software for a financial institution may have left a 'back door' open in the program, one through which money may have been diverted to foreign bank accounts." Does anyone know what this federal investigation in New York is about? How about copying this note around and seeing what people can find out?

Perhaps this is related to the recent Citicorp (Citibank? I have trouble keeping up...) job done by the people in Russia? andrew
