So I want to go back to that affidavit by Special Agent Babs. And she mentions interviewing two people who are incarcerated in the Philippines. The other person that is, I don't think he's even mentioned in the affidavit, would be this guy near Islam. Yeah. But that's so far in the future. We're not even there yet. We're in the petty days of 2010. Everything's great. Is this what people are doing on Xbox Live? I think that this is what people were doing on Xbox Live. I think that actually we kind of will talk about it much, much, much later. I know. This has kind of moved under Roblox and Minecraft now. Minecraft. Yes. I still don't know what that is. No, but I think you should get into it.

I don't really get it either.

So back in 2010, we're giving a little more context here, the FBI made a website to trade credit card information on called Carter Prophets.

And Mir Islam got busted.

But who is Mir Islam? So this is according to his own lawyers.

Islam was born in Bangladesh on June 24, 1994.

His family emigrated to the United States in 2000 and settled in the Bronx, New York.

After a fairly normal childhood, Islam developed several mental health problems in adolescents,

including bipolar disorder, chronic depression,

OCD, and attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, one of the most deadly viruses known to man.

None of these conditions were treated.

Around the same time, Islam began immersing himself in online gaming, chatting, and other activities.

Bad combination.

These activities function as an addiction, both soothing and exacerbating his mood and attention disorders. As a result, Islam dropped out of high school and began spending 15 to 18 hours a day online without interruption or parental intervention.

Oh, no. So like I said, Islam is this guy, and we've even moved on from Troy Woody. We're going even further back than Troy Woody than this. This guy, Mir Islam, is this like young kind of immigrant kid. He's a little fucked up. He's spending all this time online. He's kind of like learning how to do maybe not so great stuff online, like hacking, and stealing credit card information

and selling credit card information. This is still like a pretty lucrative market on the

internet. Like this exact kind of stuff still happens. This was relatively, not super early,

but like relatively early because it was 15 years ago, in like the life cycle of these kind of crimes.

And so like the FBI was like, oh, you know, we're going to do like a big like sting operation.

And to do that, they did Operation Card Shop, like I mentioned.

You know, they set up this website that the FBI itself was like monitoring and running for people to like essentially sell credit card information that they hacked and stole to other people who would then use it for like cyber crimes.

So Operation Card Shop netted a bunch of people around 34, including such illustrious members of society as I Wear a Magnum and The Boner One.
