The OP may be guilty of some crimes, I have not looked into this. However this does not excuse the extortion attempt by Lauda.

If an extortion attempt was sanctioned by a federal law enforcement agency then there is a decent chance that someone would be getting impeached, either the director of said agency or worse. I doubt there are any sanctioned extortion attempts by law enforcement.

The law that you are talking about does not apply to me nor Tman, it also greatly varies depending on where you are located:

Quote

17.(1) It shall be an offence for any person who, with a view to gain for himself or another or with intent to cause loss to another, makes any unwarranted demand with menaces.
(2) For the purposes of this section
(a) a demand with menaces shall be unwarranted unless the person making it does so in the belief
(i) that he has reasonable grounds for making the demand, and
(ii) that the use of the menaces is a proper means of reinforcing the demand;

I scammed people? What people? Give a list.

Participating in HYIP, especially when you knew it was a botnet (which is illegal by itself) makes you also guilty: https://oag.ca.gov/consumers/general/pyramid_schemes
I believe that a similar law is in place in the EU considering their stance has been shifting towards stronger regulations and sanctions in this area.

That's your excuse? Seriously? Oh geez. RIP bitcointalk.

And why exactly are half of the people here avoiding the extortion attempt and just accuse OP back? It's as if you guys think the extortion attempt will be justified if zeroxal is proven guilty.

the extortion was a ruse for information... please read all before you quote with more alts Zerox.

Haha, accusing me of having another alt again. It's so funny how your accusation process works.
