Actually what they mean by "foiling" the "scam" is probably more like taking all the coins themselves while blocking anyone else from getting any or even from doing transactions.
Its just a way of making sure they get the most coins once the whole attack crap dies down.
It is a denial of service attack, which likely does make it illegal in many jurisdictions. I am not a lwyer though so consult a lawyer in your jurisdiction about denial of service attack legislation in your area.

Let me prefix this with I'm not mad, just very confused.
I've only been active around hear for a few weeks but the more time I spend hear the more i want to pull my hair out over others actions!
I'd never even heard of this coin till yesterday and as soon as I saw it I assumed it was a joke, so I have to ask.
Is most of the Bitcoin community always this spitefull? Or only when they get board?

You're either crazy or in need of a medication adjustment. You are a thug.

Guys who are actually mining with it: Good job!
Let me applaud you for drawing miners and their hashing power away from LTC to do your bidding. Why don't you make an effort at increasing the LTC hashing power when we really need it, instead of trying to fuck up a coin that wasn't going anywhere anyway, you fucking tool? You didn't 'save' anyone from a 'scam'.

Couldn't have said it better, almost like I said it myself. And you invested your own money into Litecoin then because.....

In honor of this, we have decided to actually buy BBQ food for our BBQFoil party! We were thinking pizza, but BBQ is better in this situation.
