An associate is trying to find an American who left the country to operate a high-tech business, possibly illegal, outside the U.S. to evade American laws. Think hacking/cracking, money laundering, child porn, black market. This is for a profile in _Details_ magazine. Any tips? My friend is discreet and trustworthy and lives in New York City. -Declan

If your "friend" is Charlie Platt, you should stay away from him - Charlie is a liar and a crook. Now, what was the name of that guy in Antigua... --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
I can't confirm or deny whether my associate is Charles, but I will say that he is not a liar nor a crook. Far from it. I vaguely remember a flamewar between you two on cypherpunks a few months back, centering around how you got kicked off of an ISP, so perhaps that explains your animus towards him. -Declan On Sat, 26 Apr 1997, Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM wrote: > Declan McCullagh <declan@well.com> writes: > > > An associate is trying to find an American who left the country to operate > > a high-tech business, possibly illegal, outside the U.S. to evade American > > laws.

Charles Platt is a liar and a crook. Ask his former business partners in the "Cryocare foundation". Re-read the bullshit that he's been posting to this mailing list. Re-read his sick sexual fantasies on alt.torture. > I vaguely remember a flamewar between you two on cypherpunks a few months > back, centering around how you got kicked off of an ISP, so perhaps that > explains your animus towards him. Charles Platt claimed that I was kicked off panix.com for "theft of services". He posted this lie to cypherpunks, to Declan's "fight censorship" mailing list, and several other forums. Platt's claim is an outright lie, like everything else he says. Yes, there used to be an account "vulis@panix.com", used mostly by my wife. We didn't like Panix's service, so we stopped paying for it, and the account was closed in October 96. We fired Panix. If Panix thinks we owe them something for their service, let them speak up. Declan's credibility as a journalist is severely hurt by his association with the proven liar and a crook - Charles Platt. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
