Summary
On 4 May 2000, an email that read "kindly check the attached LOVELETTER" was sent from Philippines. Attached was a virus, the Love Bug, and within days it had paralyzed banks, broadcasters, and businesses across the globe. The age of Crime Dot Com had begun.
Geoff White charts the astonishing development of hacking, from its birth among the ruins of the Eastern Bloc to its coming of age as the most pervasive threat to our connected world. He takes us inside the workings of real-life cybercrimes, revealing how the tactics of high-tech crooks are now being harnessed by nation states. From Ashley Madison to election rigging, Crime Dot Com is a thrilling account of hacking, past and present, and of what the future might hold.

Superb overview of all things cybercrime
The author has that rare skill of explaining complex technologies in a very accessible way. The book goes through some of the key relatively recent events that have shaped the current state of play in cybercrime, from bank heists to nation state attacks. Where the book excels is in drawing links between the various types of cybercrimes. A book aimed more at the general reader than cybersecurity professionals looking for a deep technical dive.

Cybercrime explained
Well researched and superbly delivered by Geoff White. Enjoyed the Lazarus Heist podcast so knew I would like the style of delivery.
I would recommend the book to anyone working in cyber in particular threat analysts, or anyone with an interest in understanding the different groups, techniques and politics which merge under cybercrime and how we got here.
