It's not about where you live. A lot of the times these guys just want to turn your computer into a hub / node. You know, infect 500,000 computers, and that's a lot of processing power at your disposal, from which you can do some pretty crazy things. Either that, or they'll just scan your HD for personal / banking info. That's why my real name isn't even anywhere on this computer.
Please note, I don't do anything like that. I'm the other end. My job is to keep these F'ers at bay.
But, sometimes you have to work with them. Want to know why your servers keep getting hacked? Find one of the hackers, offer them lots of money, and turn them into a contractor.
