RE: Toward a last call for the Note

I think CABF and APWG are both good ideas.  Wells Fargo belongs to CABF
(and sometimes participates in APWG); let me know if I can be of
assistance.
 
A good way to liaise with the FBI (if the group wishes to do that) would
be through Infraguard: http://www.infragard.net/
 
Also I'm sure Dan would agree that FSTC members will want to review the
Note o.b.o. financial services industry.

A suggestion we've made once or twice in the CABForum work, which may be
equally appropriate here, would be to get someone from the law
enforcement field (particularly anyone involved in issues of electronic
crime, internet fraud issues) to give us, if not a formal review, at
least a bird's eye view of whether these are the kind of things that
they feel will lead to meaningful improvement or even, if we can dare to
dream, suggest new features/restrictions they would like to see in
place.  

I've read, for example, that the far and away leading online crime, in
terms of number of incidents reported and damages (cite lacking,
sorry...) is auction fraud.  Now, that is arguably outside or scope, but
it does help cast a certain perspective on our work here, in terms of
the areas where we can do the most good.  

This is a limp suggestion though, since I have no direct contacts with
the people appropriate to offer this review.  It's possible that I/we
could reach someone through APWG, but I'm a little reluctant to even
mention that, since it sounds like volunteering, and I don't really have
much active participation in the APWG at the moment.

In the meantime then, I welcome anyone else jumping in and saying they
have a drinking buddy who is the head of the FBI's cybercrime unit.

Cheers,
