LOIC is user friendly, available (and best of all not traceable to me). Request a personal army, post screens and mention 419 on the right board. Should be enough to finish them without getting yourself involved.
The domain is not local BTW. Traced to AT&T. Which is why I'm apprehensive. Don't want the FBI trying to extradite me because I wreaked havoc on a phishing website.
