They are mixing phishing with hackers, selling illegal CDs (containing music or software) and small level piracy.

Piracy is not funding terrorism per se; individuals or small groups of people still try to make business selling stuff to fools that don't realise they can download. That used to happen a lot in the 90s, when net was expensive. Small groups selling illigal software are not connected with terrorist...

...I can see the picture... Bin Laden at the corner of the block trying to sell the latest version of Vista so he can buy some nukes; not gonna happen.

And, for the link to your MYSPACE page in your profile.

I copied some of your songs and will use two of them for a jingle I am producing.
One of your songs has a nice hook which I will use for a song I am writing for a hot new R&B singer.
I downloaded some of your excellent photography and will be giving one of the photos to my
girlfriend who is working on an advertisement for a fat-free antacid.

I don't have any money now because it's cold outside and the ATM is FAR away.

Kindest regards

You are actually stealing his stuff and pretending it is your own.
He is using audio material for recreational purpose without paying for it. He is not selling it or pretending it is his work. There's a different between actual theft and copyright infringement. Most people aren't aware of that.
