Re: Nicholas Truglia sim swap fraud arrested
If nick did this in his house, with a burner and left the phone on....the feds can use a phone tracking device called stingray and ping the phone and find out the coordinates of the cell phone tower in that vicinity.......but the bitcoin addresses probably gave it away.......he did not practice very high level of OPSEC..........
I know how to completely evade feds if the situation was like that.....
If I did something like that,
Would be......go buy a sim card at walmart with sunglasses and a hat and drive a moped or motorcycle parked by the nearest residential neighborhood with no cameras.
then get my separate laptop - VMware - use hotspot in the middle of a very deserted area.......
only turn on the phone in the deserted area. turn it off in the same area.
then move the money to BTC then have it go to the phone or computer then move all it to zcash.........monero is not as strong as zcash. then save all the private keys on a usb thumb drive, then throw away the phone and laptop and any other identifiable clothing or transportation.
so the only thing the feds have is a btc address on a burner ip address, phone coordinates in the middle of no where, and a picture of a person walking around walmart with a disguise on with a sim card paid in cash.
any flaws in my thinking?
the feds will check every camera down the street around walmart and at walmart.
then check for the data packets routing through the ip addresses and hack through the vpn and the proxy chain...that should lead to nothing at the end once they break through the entire line of security. |
