I disagree.  Guerilla warfare, perhaps, but terrorism?  I don't see
anything here that induces public terror, or even fear.  Identity theft
is a pain, but as far as I've been able to tell it's not the sort of
thing that provokes the kind of terror that makes "terrorism" an
appropriate label.

Let's just settle for "criminal activity"...
