The point is that for every 1 teenage aspie arrested by the UK plod there are 20 crafty russians (like you I suppose, but with less squirrel fixations and higher profits) systematically defrauding various online individuals and organisations making millions that the police appear completely oblivious of.
UK police is totally clueless about cybercrime, however FBI has been arresting those Russians pretty well so much as on some of their forums the opinion is now that fooking over Americans isn't worthwhile spending time in jail or never being able to leave Russia on a foreign trip.
Very soon US will classify cyber attacks on its infrastucture as act of war - this means countries that don't give a tulip about their citizens doing it will have to accept responsibility for their actions or change their approach.
Meanwhile some guy who admitted guilt is still free by claiming he has got Aspengers and most likely using legal aid to avoid justice. His soul buddies really fooked him over now because with so many high profile hacks there will certainly be a flow of UK citizens going right to US and he'll soon join them.
Do you think it's worth doing it and go to jail for many years, possibly in USA and wrecking young life totally with criminal conviction in it?
They probably think FBI will retain them as special agents, but FBI is way past it and it's the first guys who get taken who get some kind of deal if they can lead FBI to the rest.
I wonder if their UK lawyers try to claim they got Aspergers...

It's only every few years you hear of a big takedown such as the koobface mob, but there are dozens like them and the plod don't have the resources to respond. So they just go for the headlines and arrest the teenagers who are probably doing minimal harm in reality.

Shhhhh. Don't mention Aspergers. I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it.
Not as funny as the recording of the conference call of the elite crime fighting international police divisions.
