Law enforcement’s crackdown on the Web’s anonymous black markets has reached beyond drugs: Now an alleged online gun runner has found himself in the Feds’ crosshairs.
On Thursday the Department of Justice said that it’s arrested 38-year-old Matthew Crisafi in New Hampshire on charges of selling unlicensed firearms, arms smuggling and money laundering after he allegedly attempted to sell firearms to an undercover officer of the Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations division. According to the officials, the deals were made through the anonymous marketplace website known as Black Market Reloaded, a competitor to the popular black market site Silk Road
Pretty stupid on his part. The feds must have been licking their chops over this one.
