Interesting article on The Register about a group (of spammers?) who are getting money through AdSense and buying Google shares.

Apparently they have a $405k stake already!

It does sound like a joke but not entirely unlikely? I did read an article on SEOmoz where a spammer talked about making 5 figures in a week from multiple sites.

Wow, didn't know it was that old. Someone appears to be recycling the news over at The Register.
