Flood

Flood (from engl. flood — a flood, flooding) — the messages in Internet forums and chats which are occupying large volumes or not bearing any useful information.

Technical flood represents the hacker attack with a large number of requests leading to failure in service.

How it works

For July, 2013 hackers so advertized the services of flood:

Presently it is difficult to provide the life without phone. If to paralyze this device, then it without delay will be reflected in human life or the organization. On phone of "object" there is a call. As soon as "object" picks up the phone, at once there is a reset and a repeated call. If throws off or it is busy, then similarly there is a repeated call. If 'object' switches-off phone, then the program all the same tries to phone. As soon as "object" includes phone, at once to it calls (flood) will go. In practice, as a rule, phone is switched-off for indefinite time, in parallel trying to understand that occurs. And how you will not switch off it? It constantly rings!

What effect we gain as a result:

• or it is not possible or very difficult to phone to the 'ordered' subscriber
• change of an emotional status of the owner of phone
• the battery of phone is discharged several times quicker

Flood of phone is applied in order that:

• joke of the companion
• revenge (to the chief, the partner who got nasty the employee)
• irritate competitors and/or interfere them with business
• block phone of the collectors who are keeping ringing to you
• draw to itself attention of the person
• block phone of illegal advertisers at an entrance
• another
