[b]The California attorney general's office says it has arrested the operator of a website that illegally posted more than 10,000 sexually explicit photographs of individuals alongside their personal identifying information without consent. State Attorney General Kamala Harris announced Tuesday the arrest of 27-year-old Kevin Christopher Bollaert, of San Diego, who allegedly ran the website "ugotposted.com." Bollaert is not only charged with crimes related to posting the photos, but also extorting a total of more than $10,000 from victims wishing to have their photos removed from the site which was in operation from December 2012 until September 2013. “This website published intimate photos of unsuspecting victims and turned their public humiliation and betrayal into a commodity with the potential to devastate lives,” Harris said in a statement. Bollaert created the website ugotposted.com in December 2012, which allowed users from across the country to anonymously post private photographs containing unclad and explicit images of individuals without their permission, the release said. The photos are typically obtained consensually by the poster during a prior relationship or are stolen or hacked. Unlike other such revenge sites, ugotposted.com required that the poster include the subject's full name, location, age and Facebook profile link. People are calling my work place and they obtained that information through this site!” one victim, known in Bollaert’s arrest warrant as “Jane Doe #6,” wrote to ugotposted.com’s email address in July. The victim, who told investigators she believed her email account was illegally accessed, also claimed that nude photographs of herself were emailed to relatives, and said she was scared to return to work. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/12/10/alleged-revenge-porn-site-operator-arrested-in-california/ [/b] |
