You don’t get raided for IPTV like that. Tax evasion and money laundering is why he got busted. IPTV is the least of his worries. There’s probably drugs behind it too.
Annnnd this is why you pay your damn taxes for
There is literally no proof as of yet that he was raided. Just his video and the service is down. Maybe he pulling a sly one
Dude was a moron
This does all seem a bit sketchy. You get 3 years to file your taxes. So I doubt the FBI raids him in November over that. It's also unlikely he gets raided without at least one but likely multiple cease and desists that he ignored. Also if the FBI raids your house(s) I doubt you're chilling at your buddy's apartment shooting YouTube live videos grinning ear to ear like a goof. This is a shady dude, always has been and sorry but if you have $50 million what the hell are you doing selling IPTV and risking it all...hire a good investor and you'd make more in dividends off that $50 million than you'd make selling IPTV.
So all of this is to say he's probably exaggerating what actually happened. Or he's a complete idiot to let it get this far.
And on top of that when you're making that kind of money you're an LLC, probably multiple LLCs which protects your personal assets so all of this sounds fishy.
Granted this guy was flossing his wealth but I think the smart providers with quality services should move to closed systems, invites only. Something similar to the way Smooth Streams does business. Enforcement will only get tougher and more frequent I think.
Edit: guys asking for a smooth streams invites. I wish I had them to give but I am not a member (not for lack of trying). I just am aware of their reputation and time in the game. I’m sure there are others like them out there. I was just citing them as an example of how not to get busted. That and don’t make YouTube videos.
Could not have happened to a more deserving schmuck!
Couldn't happen to a better guy IMO. He is such a douchebag to begin with. Flashing all your shit around, now look at you. Lol
Anyone who had any dealings with targetin1080p aka Omar needs to cut and run ..
He is going to lose alot of money and serve jail time ... unless of course he squeals to the fbi and informing on his sources of the iptv to begin with etc.
He says he is going to take the wrap for others he worked with ?
I very much doubt so ...
He will lose everything .. even the legit businesses now because he has to prove the funds to create those businesses came from legit money.
Also when you got so much income you don't go fucking bragging about it and buy $300k worth of diamonds and go on youtube to rep yourself .. lol
He most likely came under attention from being dobbed in by some jealous fucker or fuckers he pissed of back in the dexter tv reboot kodi days ..
The sheer number of services reassures there will always be alternatives. Plus with legit services being available there will always be a good method for capture.
he was hot wit it, shoulda stayed low key. he acted like pirating televisions streams were legal. was just a matter of time
For You, us, streaming media isn’t a crime. You do not own the illegal content, and you’re not redistributing any illegal content. There’s no law against what you are doing. Get a VPN if you are worried, but I wouldn’t worry. Not yet anyhow.
Net worth of 50M what the fuck kind of business this guy was into?
Omar has been a bragger as long as he has been involved. I very much doubt he is as rich as he pretend to be, and this story also stinks upwind.
Remember that other youtuber who claimed his house was destroyed in a snow storm. Soloman is the name.
Those youtube wankers have no scrupules
Any recommendations for a replacement? I liked gears for the consistency and reliability, I don't want 6000 channels. Do any of the other services come close?
Yeah boommedia got shut down too from broadcasting on YouTube..I don't know why resellers go on YouTube and broadcast it's just looking for trouble I think it's the glory and praise they get that's my opinion
Anyone on here that has a youtube and sells iptv , just dont post videos . You guys that are , are asking for problems . Stop it with the , I need subscribers to get my nickels . That's cool and all until they're using it against you in court . So, what it comes down to , stop being so damn ignorant . Your selling copyrighted material wether streaming is legal or not . Nuff said .
which service did he put out?
The worst part of his last video, was him saying he wasnt gonna talk about all his money. Then proceeds to drop hints about his car, properties, the cash laying around, etc. Every chance he got, he just repeated himself about how much money he had. Whatever he really got busted for, tax evasion or not, his youtube channel did him no favors. Seems like a very vain person and loved to boast about all his shit every chance he got. I'm sure those directors he talked about would love his life story now.
yikes.....
Is there any reliable reporting that this indeed did happen???
He came off as hood rich. I wouldn't be surprised if it was all bullshit and whoever is floating him is fed up. Or he is bowing out this way before being exposed as a fake. Him and his team of mods weren't professional. Then again it's a $20 illegal service... What can be expected? Their FB page and Discord was not support.... It was a platform for some early 20s nobodys on a power trip.
If he did get raided, we'll probably see something within the courts that spell out what he is being charged with. Will be funny if that exposes him as a fake.
Any body believes this shit..FBI raid his place and took everything but he didn't get arrested... I think he want out of this risky business after he made fortune and made this story so all his subscribers sympathize with him as the victim!!! ...
Omi ain’t got no hellcats
it was the best service out there great you tuber his work on reloaded on kodi was the best out there he help people out with his service
I don't think it actually happened... He got out cause the heat was coming
So I guess he is going to get a "trial"?
Glad I don't advertise like him lol... Dumb ass.
Way to many comments to read so here's my 2 cents: if the guy was cocky about it, he deserved to get fucked over! And also I have 2 providers, the 1st (my main provider) is recommendations only and doesn't appear on Facebook, twitter, reddit or anywhere else! I got lucky by joining at a time about 2 years ago when they accepted new subs and it was the best provider I could have hoped for, the xc takedown fucked them up but they are getting very close to being what they was! And my 2nd provider, I found on twitter is cheap as fuck and seems to have got better since the takedown so happy days all round... So far!
When it’s in torrent freak it’s true
flashy prick had it comming.
