as i understand it:

1) the bad guys found a website who's owner had the password as 'password' and set it up to receive phishing scam data.

2) the good guy found the phishing site and using the same 'password' he changed the phishing HTML, personally called the people who had been scammed so far and then deleted the data.

if you call #1 a hack then #2 has to be a counterhack
