But just as the Internet has spawned the rise of e-commerce, it's also recently led to the emergence of e-money - dosh that only exists in digital form. And just like commerce over the Internet, advocates say that it promises to revolutionise the global money supply. Since the invention of currencies, such as Bitcoin in 2009, it's seemed to some like a breath of fresh air - the freedom to pin money back and forth across the world without banks or governments charging you a penny in transaction fees for the privilege. Critics, though, see it differently. Transactions in these currencies which also have other names like e-gold or Liberty Reserve are hard to trace, often making them a magnet for crooks. Online did drug deals are routinely transacted across the so-called Dark Web using Bitcoin for example. A blackmailer recently demanded a big pile of the stuff to prevent him exposing the comprehensive tax returns of presidential candidate Mitt Romney. So British cybercop Mick Jameson specialises in Internet fraud and he cites numerous examples of dodgy people using Bitcoins to hide their dodgy activities.
"It's filed under an account number. And the account number obviously is in reference to your registration details. Of course, registering for a bank, you would be Mr Jameson, you would give your address, something like that. This, you give your email address, you give me your IP address and any other details that they wish you to volunteer, whether they be true or false. But of course, they don't require the person to go in with a passport or a driving licence or proof of identification or financial history."数字货币时代是否已经到来？你可能对此还知之甚少。但正如互联网促进了电子商务的兴起，它近来还激发了电子货币的萌芽——一种仅以数字形式存在的金钱。网络商务崛起后，拥护者称网络必会彻底改变全球货币供给。自从货币诞生，比如2009年的比特币让人眼前一亮，人们可以在全世界自由掌控货币的进出，而不需要银行或政府强制收取交易费。当然批判者对此有其他看法。这些货币（又叫做电子黄金或自由储备）的交易很难追溯，而恶徒们会利用这一漏洞。网上毒品在所谓的黑网上用比特币自由交易就是个例子。近期，一个敲诈者威胁总统候选人米特·罗姆尼若不给他一大笔“封口费”，他就会曝光罗姆尼综合纳税申报单。英国网络警察米克·詹姆森专门研究网络诈骗，他以大量例子解析狡猾的人们如何利用比特币来藏匿他们的不轨行径。
“首先需要申请一个账号。这个账号显然和你注册的细节挂钩。当然，如果是注册银行账号，你可能是詹姆森先生，你需要提供住址之类的信息。这个要你给出电子邮件地址，你的IP地址以及其他他们需要你提供的细节，不管真实与否都可以。当然他们不需要你本人携带护照，驾驶执照，身份证明或者金融交易记录等。”
