Denial of service attack
A denial-of-service attack refers to a malicious event where someone intentionally disrupts a network or computer's traffic. A distributed denial of service attack is similar, except it has either multiple, up to thousands of unique IP addresses to disrupt different services.
Most of the attackers who use denial-of-service attacks are never caught.
