Dutch for someone with no moral scruples

“A City trader is being investigated by police in connection with a bogus website that appealed for cash to help to find Claudia Lawrence, the chef who went missing two weeks ago in York. The Observer can reveal that Maichel Los, a 39-year-old Dutchman, is also behind a complex web of internet companies and domain names asking the public to contribute to worthy causes.

Los, who lives in west London, has used a foreign company to create websites bearing the names of famous pop stars and registered scores of internet domain names, many relating to leading figures in the worlds of art and religion.

(…) Attention has now switched to Los's alleged role in constructing the site and his registration of scores of other websites. Internet domain name searches reveal that he uses a number of pseudonyms, including "Dries Coms" and "Norbert Van Vaalsen". He reportedly calls himself "Los Bol" on social networking sites such as Myspace. "Los Bol" is Dutch for someone with no moral scruples.
