The Big Digitalpoint / eBay / FBI thread - all discussions happen here

Lol, I know eBay, Inc somewhat. I had one question, if they had an problem with you then why would they allow you to use PayPal account, lol. Don't they think that you would do cookie stuffing in it also (Which I am now sure that you did not do).

 

Hopefully it stays that way.

 

Guys I find one thing strange here how is FBI involved in this case ? I am not sure how things work in the US but wasn't FBI a agency to work with internal security of the US. Correct me plz

 

When the FBI was first created it had tasks dedicated to larger safety and security issues. Later they started dealing with more items like international fraud. You may be thinking of the CIA.

Below is taken from a few wiki's

"Its first official task was visiting and making surveys of the houses of prostitution in preparation for enforcing the "White Slave Traffic Act," or Mann Act, passed on June 25, 1910. In 1932, it was renamed the United States Bureau of Investigation. The following year it was linked to the Bureau of Prohibition and rechristened the Division of Investigation (DOI) before finally becoming an independent service within the Department of Justice in 1935.[9] In the same year, its name was officially changed from the Division of Investigation to the present-day Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI.
[edit] The J. Edgar Hoover Directorship

The Director of the BOI, J. Edgar Hoover, became the first FBI Director and served for 48 years combined with the BOI, DOI, and FBI. After Hoover's death, legislation was passed limiting the tenure of future FBI Directors to a maximum of ten years. The Scientific Crime Detection Laboratory, or the FBI Laboratory, officially opened in 1932, largely as a result of Hoover's efforts. Hoover had substantial involvement in most cases and projects the FBI handled during his tenure.

During the "War on Crime" of the 1930s, FBI agents apprehended or killed a number of notorious criminals who carried out kidnappings, robberies, and murders throughout the nation, including John Dillinger, "Baby Face" Nelson, Kate "Ma" Barker, Alvin "Creepy" Karpis, and George "Machine Gun" Kelly."

 

I wish you and your partners the best of luck with this and I hope everything turns out well for you guys

 

Hello shawn,

Someone is making false news on web, on your site. I had checked it, i believe it is false news.

But anyway, warn them.

Here is the url : www.nickycakes.com/digital-point-owners-indicted-out-on-100k-bail/

I hope you check it and give good lesson.

 

The article is factually accurate.

 

I doubt the forum will close, don't they have internet in prison?

 

Um as far as I am aware unless you are in a minimum security prison and you are rich then no.



I am not sure why cookie stuffing would be attempted in the first place though.

 

Oh yeah dipshit I am Unless Hogan can find someone else to run it then it'll close.

 

Shawn is a non-violent offender = Minimum security and he rich so he could and probably will have internet access.

 

From what I have heard If you steal or commit fraud of over 10 million you are placed in above minimum security. Some regions it is over 25 million. So In case he has found guilty which would not suprise me he has a 50-50 shot.


I still want to know why "Assuming the cookie stuffing is true" Why he did it.



There is also the chance that he gets off free or just has to pay it back.

 

Club Fed. ;-)

 

If you need any legal advice, feel free to contact me Shawn. I have worked for Consumer Direct for 7 years now and can provide you with free basic legal advice, if needed.

Just PM me.

 

Yea there is one is Sacramento I think, I watched on MANswers on spikeTv that some inmates even get delivery of any food or restaurant they like if they pay enough.

 

Good luck Shawn. I've followed the civil suit and am extremely surprised by the criminal charges. Keep us posted on the status and let the community know if you need financial assistance.

 

Well there will always be HATERS left and right trying to bring you down, what more can I say?

 

Let me give you some tips
before you post, read all the court doc which was provided on that site. Its not false allegations which is being posted on internet by lots of people.

 

lol nice information....

 

Matt Cutts just posted this on his twitter.
