Even with a legit internet based business there are so much FUD spreding morons creating problems that the owner of the business might think to cash in and disappear instead of heaving a hard life Trying to do its best. It's not easy!
Yeah right, interwebs trolls make criminals out of honest people
"Shit, this anonymous person on this nerd forum is saying mean things about me so I better steal everyone's money. That'll teach'em."
Thats funny, but a way it can be.
