Nyhet: Scamsider borte etter at eierne ble avbildet og navngitt

[Cubicle Dude]

fullreleases.com er drevet av 2 luringer som høster $ av de som ønsker tjenestene. I realiteten er det en "søkemotor" som scanner kjente torrentsider. Dvs at brukere betaler for tjenester de enkelt kunne søkt opp gratis selv.

 

Nettsidene deres er som sunket i jorden etter at navnene, bilder av dem og deres damer samt bilen med registreringsnummeret er godt synlig har blitt publisert. Disse luringene høstet flere millioner og har vistnok holdt på endel år med e-postsvindel + +. Ikke bare med fullreleases.com men også adultcreator.net, babeindexer.com, mp3reactor.org, sexler.net, og torrentlog.com

Scam sites vanish after owners' names, addresses posted

 

A pair of alleged scammers who made millions from unsuspecting Internet users have been outed, resulting in the disappearance of all their scam sites. Matt and Jake Dylewski infamously ran fullreleases.com, which sold monthly subscriptions in exchange for standard search results from popular torrent sites like Mininova and The Pirate Bay.

 

That's not all that "customers" of fullreleases.com were duped into, though. In addition to search results that were otherwise freely available to anyone on the Internet, the credit cards being used for subscription payments were often subject to other, mysterious charges. Canceling subscriptions was also near impossible, and the site generated numerous complaints across the web.

 

Fullreleases.com wasn't the only site the Dylewski brothers supposedly ran in order to scam users out of their hard-earned cash, either. According to fileclub.info, which currently hosts all of the information you could ever want on the Dylewskis, they also ran a handful of other sites, such as adultcreator.net, babeindexer.com, mp3reactor.org, sexler.net, and torrentlog.com. As it turns out, these two appear to have been in the scamming business for some time, getting their start in the Dark Ages by asking users to mail them money—yes, as in snail mail—in exchange for warez.

 

 

According to fileclub.info, the Dylewskis had turned scamming and defrauding into a fulltime business after having amassed "millions of dollars" over the years and evading taxes in Canada (where Jake resides), Malta (where Matt resides), and Poland (their home country). In addition to their personal contact info, the site has posted the official "office" address in Malta, numerous photos of both Jake and Matt, photos and addresses of their girlfriends, and Jake's car in Canada (complete with license plate).

 

As a result, it seems as if the Dylewski brothers have taken off—scam sites and all. As pointed out by TorrentFreak, all of their sites, including fullreleases.com, have been taken offline and replaced with parked pages. As for where the brothers (and their girlfriends?) have disappeared to, nobody seems to know. But one thing's for sure: anger enough people on the Internet and they will apparently fight back.
