The FBI announced the arrest of Blake Benthall, also known as Defcon, the alleged owner and operator of black market Silk Road 2.0. As of September 2014, the FBI allegedly processed $8 million in monthly sales according to the FBI. The original Silk Road website was shut down by the FBI in October 2013. This Silk Road, in whatever form, is the road to prison. Those looking to follow in the footsteps of alleged cybercriminals should understand that we will return as many times as necessary to shut down noxious online criminal bazaars. We don’t get tired.”]
