Lose a contract? Leave a logic bomb in place ...

So, a company was hired, by a client, to manage a payroll system.  Hires a guy to do it.  Later the company loses the contract.  The guy they hired puts a logic bomb in the system before he hands it over to the new lot.  It wipes out a bunch of servers after the handover.

 

Last time I heard of this the client was Revlon.  (Years ago, that was.)  This time it was the US Army.  (Probably not a smart move ...)
