Compliments of 'catlady' hehe magneticdiary.com

Speaking of operatives the indictment is rather revealing about who had acct information, co-conspirator (Hansen) pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit securities fraud over a year ago. hehe
x) For the purpose of advancing his illegal stock trading schemes, the defendant AMR I. ELGINDY and other co-conspirators communicated with other short sellers nationwide, including short sellers and other investors within the Eastern District of New York, via the Internet, e-mails, electronic messages, the telephone and facsimile transmissions. To facilitate these communications, ELGINDY founded Pacific Equity Investigations, which operated a public website named InsideTruth.com, and a subscription e-mail service and website named AnthonyPacific.com. The service provider for ELGINDY’s websites was Electronic Information Management Systems ("EIMS"), an Internet hosting service operated by a co-conspirator from his home in Melbourne, Florida.
xi) In addition to hosting the websites, EIMS received and processed subscription fees paid by the members of AnthonyPacific.Com, including subscribers who lived and worked in the Eastern District of New York ("EDNY Subscribers"). The subscribers of AnthonyPacific.com paid fees of up to $1,400 per month. Subscribers to ELGINDY’s e-mail newsletter paid up to $100 per month. The fees enriched ELGINDY and funded the cost of maintaining the websites.

Defendant pleads guilty in FBI insider trading case

NEW YORK - A webmaster pleaded guilty Tuesday to a charge of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in a case that involves the alleged use information from FBI databases to trade stocks.

Robert Hansen was charged as part of the Anthony Elgindy securities fraud case in the Eastern District of New York.

Short-seller Elgindy, two FBI agents and three others are accused of using information obtained illegally from FBI databases, mostly to sell stocks short.

Hansen, who was Elgindy's webmaster, is the second defendant to plead in the case. Last year, Derrick Cleveland pleaded guilty to racketeering.

Like Cleveland, Hansen is now cooperating with the government.

Hansen appeared in court Tuesday. As part of his plea, Hansen said that he and others "obtained material nonpublic information which they used to make decisions regarding whether to purchase or sell the stock of companies."

As part of the conspiracy to use nonpublic information to trade stocks, Hansen said that Elgindy founded Pacific Equities Investigation and two related Web sites to help spread information about the companies targeted.

Elgindy, the two former FBI agents, Jeffrey Royer and Lynn Wingate, former trader Troy Peters and fund manager Jonathan Daws have pleaded not guilty to the charges.
