I only can hope that the domain was sized
If the domain was seized, the DNS entries would have been changed. That didn't happen:
Code:
Domain:             bettercallraul.it
Status:             ok
Signed:             no
Created:            2023-02-22 04:40:56

And also, there would be a notification on the Department of Justice website, and news outlets would've been covering it in a frenzy just like Chipmixer.

It leads me to think that the two services are totally unrelated and that BetterCallRaul just did an exit scam copying the template from chipmixer.com

Also, I have noticed evidence of slight photoshopping of the service name text (where it says "chipmixer and bettercallraul").





In exhibit B, we have the notice by Raul with a stronger white font than the one used in Chipmixer. This font does not match up with the rest of the notice. That must mean some clever swindler must have carefully erased the previous text (this is every easy to do if you've seen my Background Eraser service) and then wrote his own text on top of it. Apparently they did not have the same font installed on their computer as the one used in the notice.

You cannot see the difference even in this size. You must download the images and open them at 100% zoom to see the difference. They are both in 720p size.

Meanwhile in Exhibit A we see the BetterCallRaul logo plastered on top of the notice, on the left and the right. The only problem is, the swindlers pasted the logo on top of part of the chipmixer logo. You will never see any law enforcement organization make this simple mistake. OOPS!  Roll Eyes


Other suspicious evidence:

- The exact same warrant as Chipmixer was printed on Bettercallraul site, normally a seized website gets a different notice.
- The warrant mentioned on Bettercallraul.it seizure image does not contain any information about bettercallraul, only about Chipmixer.
- The exact same law enforcement stickers printed at the bottom of both sites although theoretically this cannot be possible unless Bettercallraul servers were hosted in the same area as CM's was
- There are no FBI Wanted signs for Raul or any other staff (although I suspect that if this scandal blows up there very well might be). We saw how quickly DBI identified Minh Whatshisname as the CM operator and indicted him.

Once again: I strongly suspect that BetterCallRaul pulled off an exit scam and they just fed ridiculous excuses to Royse and their person-in-contact.

Both websites have been saved to archive.org and archive.ph (aka archive.today) to preserve the evidence.


I will add for making a reference link that metadata from the stub image shows that the file was modified to add BetterCallRaul additional logo and text. It took 30 minutes and was done on 18th of May. So it was not made spontaneously.
