18 U.S. Code § 1001

Statements or entries generally.

A little #protip here … if you lie to federal agents, that’s covered by 18 U.S. Code § 1001

I’ve never heard of anyone being prosecuted for making a complaint via IC3.gov … like this one.

But if you’re gonna do it, it’s probably best to have the receipts to back it up.

I had some receipts, they were exculpatory in nature, and they got posted earlier today. This might lead to a grifter in Massachusetts getting a search warrant, but he can send a thank you note to his handler in SoCal, whose big mouth turned this from a theoretical action to reality.
