In today's Wall Street Journal...
<snip>
NICE, France—The anonymous emails carried a tantalizing subject line:
"Tax evasion: client list available."
The messages, sent two years ago to tax authorities across Europe,
made an audacious claim: The sender could provide a large client list
of a Swiss-based private bank, plus access to its computer systems.
The emails were sent to Germany's secret police, the French police and
the U.K.'s tax authorities and foreign ministry.
The emails came from the computers of Hervé Falciani and Georgina
Mikhael, two employees of HSBC Holdings PLC, people familiar with the
matter say. The caper has landed the two at the center of a
controversy over whether governments should use data obtained by
dubious means to bring tax evaders to justice.
