George News Cyber Criminal May Face Charges Soon
The New Mexico Office of Attorney General received a criminal complaint against Marcus Goldfinch, the CEO of George News and a Qanon influencer, for theft of identity and obtaining identity by electronic fraud, as part of a multiyear malicious cyberstalking campaign. The complaint was submitted by Tim Ozman, the host of Infinite Plane Radio, who claimed that Goldfinch appropriated his identity, trademarks, copyrights, and even his recorded voice, and falsely represented his work as his own. Goldfinch used electronic fraud to steal Ozman's business name and convinced YouTube that he was the owner of his podcast, voice, and content. Using Ozman's stolen identity, likeness, and voice, he falsely represented his work as his own and obtained his copyrights and trademarks illegally. From 2018 to the present, he has represented himself as Ozman on YouTube and holds his copyrights in their view. Additionally, Goldfinch committed wire fraud by soliciting donations to a Paypal account
