The never ending Sex.com saga: hijacker who earned millions pleads poverty
[quote author=regic link=topic=1010.msg35997#msg35997 date=1165782190]
Quote:is due back in court in San Jose on 26 February to tell the judge how that search has gone...

Stay tuned for the next article on February 27th: "conman on the run again"  :Smile
[/quote]

Wrong on both counts! :imptongue:  He kept his court date and the next article is called "millionaire conman pleads poverty".


Quote:A man who siphoned millions of dollars from a pornography Web site and fled to Mexico cried poor Monday and asked a judge to erase the $65 million he owes the rightful owner of Sex.com.

Stephen Michael Cohen was released from prison in December so he could surrender assets to Gary Kremen, the online entrepreneur who registered the domain name in 1994. But Cohen told U.S. District Court Judge James Ware that he's jobless and broke.

Cohen also claimed the court deliberately lost important documents he filed detailing his financial plight. Cohen said he's called the FBI in hopes of recovering the records.

"We're far from ending this case," the mustachioed 59-year-old said as he appeared dressed in faded jeans, a shabby sweat shirt and a ski jacket...

Sex.com the book released
[quote author=mandy link=topic=1010.msg20714#msg20714 date=1155461696]
A related article: the sex.com story will be published as a book.

Quote:The decade-long tussle over the world's most seductive internet address is a retelling of the Trojan war story for the digital age...

I never stole it. He stole it!" cries Stephen Michael Cohen, pointing wildly at the man who had been chasing him for over a decade. "It was you guys who went into court and explained that there was some cockamamie list and therefore he was the owner. The name sex.com has always been mine." The cockamamie list referred to is the internet's most valuable document: a list of the owners of all the internet domain names ending with ".com".

And the owner of the dotcom mentioned - the infamous sex.com - is the man responsible for making all those millions of domains into property in the eyes of the law. On January 19 this year, Gary Kremen made the most of his extraordinary legal victory by selling that property for a record $12m (£6.3m)...
Quote:Kieren McCarthy's book Sex.com will be published by Quercus Publishing on November 2.

The book was released in the UK on 21 May 2007 through Quercus Publishing (ISBN: 1905204663).  The author is looking for a US publisher.
