Members mvan1 Posted August 28, 2015 Members Posted August 28, 2015 On Tuesday of this week, the owner and five employees of rentboy.com were arrested as discussed in the below link. Information at the link will provide greater detail of what occurred. So far, two gay "escort" sites have been seized by the FBI, the DHS, the IRS and local police (myredbook.com and rentboy.com). The reason stated for the seizures is "prostitution." However, the seizure obviously includes more than just prostitution because of the involvement of the Internal Revenue Service. Considering that the Internal Revenue Service is involved in the seizures, is is obvious that the IRS is alleging that the site owners and/or the escorts who contracted with clients, did not include related advertising income and escort fee income in their income tax returns. The federal indictments went on, in detail, describing specific sex acts that were offered on the sites. There was no need to go into detail and name certain excorts except to sensationalize or ridicule the gay community.

Members RA1 Posted August 28, 2015 Members Posted August 28, 2015 As you state, the redbook has been seized by the FBI. The rentboy.com gives an error code. The tribwpix gives a pretty good description of rentboy and how it works. I must have missed the mention of the IRS which generally is a generic sensationalizer of most everyone (except certain Democrats). Best regards, RA1 MsAnn 1 Quote
Members mvan1 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Members Posted August 28, 2015 I must have missed the mention of the IRS which generally is a generic sensationalizer of most everyone (except certain Democrats). Best regards, RA1 With heavy site traffic, sometimes the web seizure notice page does not load. Try and try again. Considering that there is very little traffic at the http://myredbook.com/ site, if you click on that link, you will see that the IRS has joined in the raid. Look at the three emblems at the top of the linked page. On the far right is the emblem of the IRS. The first paragraph also mentions the IRS. - Quote
