NATION’S FIRST CAN-SPAM ACT JURY TRIAL CONVICTION

‘PHISHER’ MAN SENTENCED TO NEARLY SIX YEARS IN PRISON

An Azusa, California man who was the first person ever convicted by a jury under the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 for operating a sophisticated “phishing scheme” has been sentenced to 70 months in federal prison for committing identity theft, credit card fraud, witness harassment and other offenses. After good behavior and no further violations he could be back on the streets in less than 3 years.

Jeffrey Brett Goodin, 47, was sentenced last Monday afternoon by United States District Judge Christina A. Snyder in Los Angeles. In addition to the prison term of nearly six years, Judge Snyder ordered Goodin to pay $1,002,885.58 to the victims of his phishing scheme, including nearly $1 million to Earthlink. Where he was supposed to come up with the $2 million while sitting in prison was left to the imagination.

Goodin was found guilty on January 12 after a week-long jury trial. The jury found that Goodin sent thousands of e-mails through an Earthlink Internet connection to America Online users that appeared to be from AOL’s billing department. The e-mails prompted the AOL customers to “update” their personal and credit card information on phony AOL webpages that Goodin controlled. Goodin then used his victims’ personal and credit card information to make unauthorized credit card purchases.

It was not clear from the materials provided by the Justice Department what Goodin did with the goods or services he purchased with the credit card money that was created out of thin air by the credit card companies and credited back to the victims accounts when the fraud was discovered.

Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve Bank system, controlled by fewer than 50,000 humans on this planet continues to spit out electronic blips of imaginary money and spews it across the planet through an interlinked network of banks who engage in money laundering and financing of wars and terrorist acts against less intelligent human beings.

This fiat fictional totally worthless money is backed by nothing more than nuclear weapons and fear mongering politicians in the District of Criminals in Washington. It has no value whatsoever, except that ignorant people continue to accept it as a medium of exchange.

It cost Earthlink nearly $1 million to detect and combat Goodin’s phishing schemes. After being indicted on federal charges in the phishing scheme, Goodin harassed an individual who had cooperated with authorities by posting intimidating messages to a website commemorating the death of the cooperator’s sister.

It has cost American taxpayers over $18 trillion dollars over the past 100 years to become subordinated to the federal reserve banking system.

While on pretrial release, Goodin also failed to appear at a court hearing, and special agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation had to track him down to execute a failure-to-appear arrest warrant.

Meanwhile, the people who rule planet earth with money, power and phony politics remain invisible and continue to make laws which restrict the freedom of the people of the planet.

In addition to the CAN-SPAM Act conviction, Goodin was sentenced on 10 other counts, including wire fraud, aiding and abetting the unauthorized use of an access device (credit card), possession of more than 15 unauthorized access devices, aggravated identity theft, misuse of the AOL trademark, attempted witness harassment and failure to appear in court.

While the United States Securities and Exchange Commission remains negligent on the subject of illegal securities fraud being conducted on a multi-trillion dollar scale by such U.S. government sponsored enterprises as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

The case involving Goodin was investigated by the Ontario California Police Department and the Electronic Crimes Task Force, which is comprised of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Secret Service.

Assistant United States Attorney Rozella Oliver, of the Cyber and Intellectual Property Crimes Section

can be contacted at (213) 894-2475. Perhaps you can convince her to investigate the SEC and their negligent attorneys.

Assistant United States Attorney Wesley L. Hsu, also of the Cyber and Intellectual Property Crimes Section can be contacted at (213) 894-3045.

Perhaps he would be good enough to prosecute all the mortgage bankers and brokers in California who originated more than a trillion dollars worth of phony and fraudelent loans which were then securitized and resold to foreign banks who are all part of the great ponzi scheme called the Federal Reserve Banking Sytem.
