Talking About Illegal Things On The Internet? It’s the FBI

There’s dumb, there’s really dumb and then there are those so arrogant that they think what big banks do on a daily basis can be done by them without going to prison.
The official FBI New York Twitter account confirmed on Thursday the seizure of Silk Road 2.0, saying that the site’s alleged operator, Blake Benthall, was arrested in San Francisco on Wednesday.
He now potentially faces life in prison, the FBI says.
Benthall is a former employee of SpaceX, Elon Musk’s private rocket company. SpaceX confirmed to Business Insider that an employee with that named worked at the company from Dec. 9, 2013 to Feb. 21, 2014.
Sorry, but if your last name is not “Dimon” or similar this sort of thing is a bad idea.
