Steve Rodrique from Riviere-du-Loup, big time computer fraud artist
 

I don't know if you guys remember this dude but on our local newspaper (Journal de Montreal) the RCPM (i.e. similar to the FBI) computer crime unit raided his place for frauding banks of more than $60,000. Plus they found, stolen credit cards, fake IDs, etc.

Three or four years ago, I paid this guy to make me a simple feeder site because he was claiming on another porn webmaster board that he could make sites that convert above average. But I never got, the site he promise to make, just excuses after excuses (i.e. the site was save in a disk and snailed mailed to my address, the site was e-mailed, the site was too big to pass thru the e-mail, etc.)

Plus today on the news I found out he is only 19, so that would when frauded me a few nickles and dimes, he was only 16 and and an active porn webmaster and an affiliate of many sponsors.:mad:

of course I know this guy! he owes me $800.

he came at my house, we went drinking beers I tough he was a friend, but all he did was to rip me off. He's such an homo.

so they busted him? NICE!

Alex, ICQ me would you?

thanks

lol, i remember him!

His nick on AWI was "Rod".

AWI, home of the bank fraudsters :winkwink:

exactly that was him!

ALEX please get to me on ICQ! :thumbsup

OMFG WTF

Sorry but I don't do ICQ, you can call me at 514.299.2589 or email me at racainternet @ hotmail.com

he owes me and David a bunch of money!

ok n/m, I just wanted to know if thats in today's newspaper, if yes I'll go out and buy it just to read about this fag :)

I'm so fucking happy he's busted, you have no idea

BUSTED!

Alex, can you scan the article, and post the url for the scan?
I want to read about this faggot retard, thanks ;)

Yes it is on today's newspaper on pages 50 and 51 of Le Journal de Montréal.

It is in French, I tried to find the online version of the article but couldn't. My scanner is too cheap to scan newspapers (it comes out ugly and very readable). I'm sure someone here has a better scan tho! if not I'll upload mine...

For all of you that can read french...

Check it out !!!

We made some deals in the past like trading traffic for CJ design. I sent him traffic, the CJ design had shitty prod. Then I sent more traffic in exchange of a text link in his TGP, another shitty deal.

He was always bragging about how productive his CJ designers were.

----
C?est pour montrer sa bonne foi et « éduquer la population sur les fraudes par Internet » que Steve Rodrigue a livré son récit au Journal de Montréal.

« Je sais que ce que j?ai fait est criminel mais je veux prouver que je ne l?ai fait que pour voir si ça marchait, dit le jeune homme de 19 ans. Je suis prêt d?ailleurs à aller en prison et à repayer tout ce que j?ai reçu. »

Des 57 000 $ qu?il avoue avoir fraudés, Steve Rodrigue dit n?avoir reçu que 25 000 $, dont 17 000 $ auraient été dépensés pour poursuivre ses « recherches ».

Alex, je suis full fluent dans les 2 langues ;) mais c'est beau, le url de canoé va etre ok ;) merci quand meme ;)

I meet that guy in september 2003. Funny to see what happen to him. But already than he was going around the system to make sales from movie post.

dude wtf? AWI has allways been a great place to post... was the 1st adult forum I found, it got hurt by the ddos attacks but it's come back.. I've never dealt with any scammers there.. everyone has been more than helpful on that board.

J'espere sincerement que Bubba le gros noir de la prison va s'ocp de lui et l'enculer tout les soirs avant l'heure du dodo ;)

:thumbsup

he only gonna get charged for scamming $50,000 with fake bank sites. We gotta call the media and give them this link LOL

make it the everyone who got scammed by Rodrigue thread.

alot of people have before that fake site scam bust hes suffering right now. I want the judge to know that he wasn'T "just experimenting to see if he could do it" like he's claiming. I want this fag in JAIL for a while!

BTW, $60K is not such a big fraud.

thats excluding all the webmasters he scammed

he's up to 100k I'm sure

that guy has the innocent kind of look, we need proofs against him so that he gets what he deserves.

I wonder what would happen if some of us digged up some old posts of him on various boards and e-mailed them to the journalist of Journal de Montreal!:)

he'd sure look less like an innocent fagget. That's what he's trying to do right now, look like he was just a kid trying something he heard about to see if it worked.

Fuck that he did this shit for the money, period!

scammer should all meet bubba ;)

who busted him ?
Gosselin ?

he's still under investigation, but GRC showed up at his house to get all his material.

« I am ready to go in prison and to pay again all that I received » ? Steve Rodrigue

This is to show his good faith and « to educate the population on the frauds by Internet » that Steve Rodrigue delivered his narrative to the Newspaper of Montréal.

« I know that this that I did criminal east but I want to prove that I did not do it that to see if that walked, says the young man of 19 years. I am ready besides to go in prison and to pay again all that I received. »

Of the 57 000 $ that it had to have cheated, Steve Rodrigue says to have received only 25 000 $, of which 17 000 $ would have been spent to follow its « researches ».

« My accomplices received the remainder », he says.

Even if the search was done to the residence of its parents, the young Rodrigue succeeded convincing them of his innocence until last night.

« I lied to my parents and to the agents of the GRC that came to investigate for I wanted time to write my narrative and to deliver it to a media before my arrest. I wanted the luck to prove my good faith. Now, I am ready to plead guilty. »

Classical defense

When they do to pinch themselves, the computer pirates have the habit, as Steve Rodrigue, to proclaim that their méfaits were committed only for « to educate itself and discover weaknesses in the systems ».

This is besides the defense that used Kevin Mitnick, the most famous American computer pirate. Mitnick purged 46 months of prison between 1999 and 2002 for have introduced itself in a multitude of computer systems.

While proclaiming the right to apprenticeship, Mitnick was able to elude most of the introduction accusations by effraction in the systems. His prison sentence especially resulted from flight of a software of the firm of cell Nokia, safeguarded on one of the waiters that Mitnick succeeded pirating.

According to the emitted search warrant November 13 to Montréal, Steve Rodrigue could be accused non authorized usage of a computer, of illegal possession of passwords, of damages to computer data and of fraud of more one than 5 000 $.
