Yeah, but how do they find out about it when the "phisher" first starts. I don't really think they find it by the phisher sending his first try to the bank in question. A virus and spam are one thing, but phishing expeditions are quite another. If your attitude is to ignore input from victims, you will not do a good job in your security position. I can imagine cops taking the attitude that "we don't really want to hear from the burglary victim, we have other sources", what might they be?
