Ca: Laval man faces cybercrime charges from 2018 and 2019, RCMP says

Posted on March 29, 2022 by Dissent

Canadian Press reports:

A 22-year-old Laval man is facing multiple charges in connection with two police investigations into cybercrimes dating from 2018 and 2019.

In a statement issued Tuesday, the RCMP said that Chris Tyrone Dracos had been charged in Quebec Court last Friday with unauthorized use of a computer and having obtained a device to allow that use.

Back in January, Dracos had been named — and fined $150,000 — for violations of the Canadian Anti Spam Law as the alleged creator and administrator of the marketplace known as CanadianHQ (The Canadian HeadQuarters). Dracos was allegedly known online as @Poseidon.
