Identifying the Crypto Entrepreneur Linked to Popular Forum Trading in ‘Leaked’ Nudes of Women
A former track and field coach, Steve Waithe, was sentenced to five years in prison for extortion and distributing non-consensual intimate images of women via a forum called LeakedBB. Investigations link the forum to Jitendra Maharaj, co-founder of cryptocurrency startup Pay It Now, through domain records and payment data. The Press contacted Maharaj, after which LeakedBB became inaccessible.
