A federal jury in Las Vegas convicted David Ray Camez (aka “Bad Man”), 22, on two RICO charges related to participating in — and conspiring to participate in — a racketeer-influenced corrupt organization. That organization allegedly ran a “carder” site, selling fake IDs or counterfeit credit cards, named “Carder.su” It’s the first time that the RICO Act has been used in a cybercrime case that resulted in a guilty verdict. “RICO gets you certain sentencing enhancements, certain statute of limitations provisions, certain remedies — like forfeiture,” says former prosecutor Mark Rasch.”]
