Jeremy Clarkson makes Himself an Identity Theft Victim

After Jeremy Clarkson (of Top Gear fame) published his bank details, to prove that identity theft based on the now famous lost British CDs was overblown, he became a victim of identity theft and had 500 pounds fraudulently stolen from his account and deposited to the British Diabetic Association.

While I don't condone the action, it is a bit of a modern day Robin Hood story. Who wants the screen play to "Hackers in Tights"?
