Well, Chris, it looks to me by the RSA publishing this information that they are encouraging anyone with a botnet to send thousands of bogus queries to a web form, which would crash a mail server or database, which belonged to a company, that the phishers had previously hacked and the company was previously unaware was being used in a phishing attempt. So now it seems the RSA are sending out information about their activities, which could infulence scriptkids/ hackers etc who own large bot nets to attack anything they see as a "phish". Although, just by individuals of the public sending a single query per user to a phish login form, could cause the same affect as a malicious users bot network.

Or maybe the RSA didn't think too far into it before making their "illegal tactics" public. I guess nobody in the industry learnedfrommakelovenotspam.com and the whole Lycos affair.
