Kim Dotcom Dismissed As Fraudster By Twitter and Facebook

The U.S. Government has accused Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom of conspiracy to defraud , and now two tech giants appear to be having trouble trusting Dotcom as well. Despite faxing over official government-issued ID, he still can’t get Twitter to believe he’s the real deal. Furthermore, Facebook won’t accept ‘Dotcom’ as a valid surname for a personal account. So, inspired by Reddit, we have something that will hopefully do the trick, at least with Twitter.

Like many famous people and other celebrities online, Kim Dotcom has many tens of thousands of fans and followers. However, not all of these people have his best interests at heart.

The problem comes when people do a search for Kim’s Twitter account using Google. Although his own account with more than 113K followers appears right there in the top results, so does another bearing the Kim Dotcom name.

The account is fake, but it is set up to look like the real thing. People who know Kim will hopefully realize that tweets such as “EFF THE FEDS. IMMA BUST OUT OF JAIL TODAY. WATCH ME. MY MEGAESCAPE WILL BE BROADCAST LIVE ON THE INNANET. MEGAUPLOAD.COM 4 LYF,” aren’t genuine, but nearly 9,300 followers of the account appear not to.

To try and add further credibility to his own account, Kim asked Twitter to terminate the fake and give him a verified account. His correspondence with Twitter shared with TorrentFreak a few minutes ago is detailed below:

—

KimDotcom, Jul 09 07:57 pm (PDT):

Full name: Kim Dotcom
Username of reported account: @Kim_Dotcom

Description: This account is impersonating me. Using my photo, etc. Please terminate that account because a lot of people who search for me find the Impersonator instead of me.

Email address: [REDACTED]
Twitter username (optional): @KimDotcom

Anything else? (optional): I would also humbly ask to please verify my account so that I have the verify label.
Kind regards,
Kim Dotcom

Of course, when it comes to being identifiable, Dotcom can quite literally put most of us in the shade – the man is a giant in every sense of the word, especially online. So to accompany his application he sent over some photo ID – his driving license. Things didn’t go well.

“Here is the reply I received [from Twitter] after I sent them a copy of my Hong Kong international driving license with photo and government stamp,” Kim told TorrentFreak.

“@Twitter declines to certify me. I faxed an ID. They think it’s fake. A search for my name shows imposter as the first result. Might quit!” Kim said in response to the rejection.

But hold on, there might be another way. Like millions of others, here on TorrentFreak we’re massive fans of Reddit and their AMAs. The site has a number of accepted ways for people to show who they say they are, so we suggested one method to Kim. Hopefully this will be enough for Twitter.

The full, genuine, real deal, verified-by-the-people Twitter account of Kim Dotcom can be found here, but with Facebook there is another problem, as illustrated in their email to Kim shown below.

—
We will not be able to assist you with your inquiry based on the ID you provided. Facebook requires all users to use their accurate first and last names. It is also important to note that using fake identification is against the law.
—

The problem? Dotcom is not accepted by Facebook as Kim’s second name.

So using a fake ID on Fagbook is against the law.

What fucking law ?
- PeterIcedale
  
  Using a fake ID is illegal in most countries, what you use it for is on little importance. Though most countries will react differently between the underage drinker using it to acquire alcohol and the “professional” using it to fraud people out of money.
  
  In my country it goes under (roughly translated) “falsifying official documents”
  - Guest
    
    Actually that’s wrong, if he’s imitating someone then he’s guilty of attempted identify theft and other offenses, but using a completely fictitious name on Fagbook is NOT against ANY law in MOST countries. Now using a false name for government/public sector purposes is another matter entirely.
    - Torrentfreak
      
      Yes be we aren’t talking about using a fake NAME on facebook, we are talking about using a fake ID to verify your identity with facebook. as PeterIcedalesaid using a fake ID for any purpose (however trivial) is against the law in the most countries.of course its all moot to this dicussion since Kim didnt use a fake ID in the first place
  - ANoi
    
    A facebook ID is not an official ID…..or is there a new law for that
    - Cunty
      
      Bouncers on some bars and clubs are now asking to check people’s facebook as a counter to easily obtainable fake id.

  but he used valid ID
  - http://twitter.com/bob_love Bob Love
    
    (And @twitter-175323965:disqus below) No, he didn’t. He sent a copy of a Hong Kong international driving licence. He probably could have sent a proper (and more valid) form of identification but that would have simply served it’s purpose and wouldn’t have got him any publicity.
    - Timmy Junior
      
      Can you point out why a Hong Kong international driving license isn’t a “proper (and more valid) form of identification”?
    - kwame
      
      What form of identification would you suggest? His passport? That’s been confiscated.

      I’m not in the least surprised a HK license wasn’t accepted. Had he sent his NZ one it probably would’ve been (NZ, unlike HK, has no National ID card so the NZ DL is widely accepted as proof of identity).
      
      Anybody who thinks *every country’s* driving license is guaranteed to work as “proof of identity” and especially, across international borders is sadly mistaken.
    - Guest
      
      The guy is a citizen of NZ. How can Hong Kong’s driving license work as a valid proof?

    I’m British and “fag” means the thing you smoke with. >_>
    - Guest
      
      That’s not the primary meaning of the word nowadays. It’s a pejorative against homosexuals. Your definition may be valid, but the pejorative usage is far more common, particularly on the internet. I’m sure you’re already aware of this, so I’m not quite sure why you posted in the first place.
    - Lnqd
      
      I agree. I just took a drag on my fag (big fat 12 inches long) and something thick white hot expelled from my mouth. mmmmmm… it was a nice blow. I keep this in my pants. You want some?
    - Mark
      
      No it doesn’t fag is short for faggot. The word you’re looking for is cig.
    - ANoi
      
      people use “fag” to imply cigarette
      people use “fag” to imply idiot
      people use “fag” to imply “gay person”
      Among others……
      Context is a fine thing.
      
      All these “defenders” of LGBT people are obsessed with words they are ashamed to use, because of fear of being seen, to be homophobic, so they CEMENT them as being gay slurs. NOT HELPING. (good intentions but NOT HELPING)Want to help ?Redefine the slur to not mean homosexual.

      @9684bc8608dc65c95e51baebe9528fb9:disqus “a pejorative against homosexuals”
      
      Thanks for clearing that up.
      Facebook has nothing to do with homosexuals directly. So when called Fagbook it’s good that you make it a LGBT slur.
      Keep it that way… Make sure it stays like that….Protect the term “fag”
      
      I am a proud homosexual btw ….
      
      At least I am not a fag. PIC (highly) RELATED

      Growing up as an IT nerd in a mill community I was called “Fag” atleast a dozen times each day. I feel that I have the right to call whomever I want a fag. That faggot facebook is full of so much faggotry. Problem?
  - No1_2_u
    
    Pull your head out of your sandy vagina & don’t jump to conclusions.
    
    Just because you use the term “Fag” for a homosexuals, it doesn’t mean the rest of us do.
    
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fag_(disambiguation)
    Fag may refer to:
    Fag, a colloquialism for cigaretteFag, a junior boy who acts or acted as servant (“fagging”) to a senior boy at a British independent schoolFag, or faggot (slang), an American English slur for a homosexual or effeminate man.A short form used among stock exchange traders for the stock of Antofagasta PLC
    
    FAG may refer to:

    - John Spartan
      
      Fag means an extreamly annoying biker / or other annoying person.
      
      ‘Fag’ is only a prerogative term against LGBT community because you and them allow it to be. Grow the fuck up and stop living in the fucking 90′s, your as bad as the MAFIAA for holding onto shit as long as possible.
    - Guest
      
      I dislike over sensitive people, I call those fags.
      So there’s an angry fag there and it’s got nothing to do with taste in gender.

  - Guest
    
    It’s his right to use whatever terminology he desires, if anyone wants to go ahead with fascist claims to oppress or censor his opinion then show some proof that he is intentionally trying to hurt someone.
    Otherwise anyone getting merely offended by something holds no value and the baseless accusations are quite harmful to his psyche and his honor.

      When I was young the proper and respectful term for someone with “Down Syndrome” was “Mongoloid”. That alway’s confused me because I assumed that you would call something made by a person from Mongolia “Mongoloid” or as a physical description being characteristic of or resembling a Mongol person, but it seems with political correctness that the term “Mongoloid” isn’t politically correct in any conversations anymore. Genghis Kahn IMO was a Mongoloid.
      
      Same thing with the term “Negro”. Call a black person in the US a “Negro” today and in most cases they will take offence even though in Spanish the word for black is negro. Only blacks can get away with the liberal use of the word “Nigger”. When I was in First Grade the teacher explained that the word “Nigger” in the dictionary was used to describe someone that was “dirty or uncouth”. The derivation of the word “Nigger” came from referring to a person, likely a slave, as someone from the African nation of Niger, but with time the term “Nigger” came into broad use as describing all black people as “Niggers”, and at first wasn’t meant as a slur or insult.
      
      Even though words are just words, they can often have deeper implications. Alway’s wondered why the Brits started calling Cigarettes “Fags”.

      yup, there are no bad words, just people who take ofence at these words.
    - Guest
      
      Nope, we now call them “mentally challenged” instead, althrough I have to disagree, some people still call people retards, as to mean they’re mentally retarded, as opposed to retard meaning idiot.

      In what way has the word “Fag” changed? where I come from, it is still an insult to a incredibly stupid person OR can refer to the gay/queer community.

    I am homosexual. Guess I must be homophobic too.
    I never knew that about myself.
    
    When people say “fag”.I take it out of context and assume it’s me they insult.
    
    I bet $100 you are straight, trying to “protect” poor helpless gay people ?
    
    “Fagbook” for a good reason.

    Now the subject at hand :/ it looks like they’re going to fight Dotcom to the bitter end which is sad. I mean they’re considering dropping the case ffs. If he was really guilty there is no way in hell they would drop it.
  - ANoi
    
    @GoDXIlE:disqus true….WBBC is muff cabbage of hate and intolerance.
    Throw every slur they have back at them, they are the ones butthurt by LGBT’s.
    
    Get’s me going but, when people “think they are doing good” by reinforcing the fag label on gay people. FFS some even say it’s not used to describe cigarettes in the UK, which it is (fact), all to “protect” ME and other LGBT’s.
    Do they really want “fag” to be used only for gay people, or are they too short sighted and stupid to see, the positive reality the redefinition creates.
    People use it all the time to describe asshats of unknown sexual orientation (which is good for gay people) Redefining that slur is win #obvious.

Didn’t he have his name changed by DPOL, so his legal surname is actually Dotcom? Seems good enough for me.

    there was someone called James Bond that was the inspiration for the books (the name only, he was an american ornithologist)
PeterIcedale

Well, even though I support the defendants in the MegaUpload case, I can actually understand Twitter and Facebooks hesitation.

He has a changed his last name to a “joke” and its no problem faking an ID to Amanda Hugandkiss or I.C Wiener.

I guess the answers are just boilerplate answers and that no one at Twitter and FB have looked closely at the case. I guess that if he are sending copies of credentials by registered post with a stamped document from whatever authority in NZ that handles name changes and such he will have no issues. Kind of ironic that “cutting edge” internet companies should require such in this day and age.

On the other hand, Mr Dotcom is fond of portraying himself as a “persecuted man of the people” (in some areas he is persecuted) so it can explain the fuzz he and TF is making out of something that is easily handled, even if it takes time.
- Guest
  
  It doesn’t matter what he changed his last name to. It’s still his actual, legal name.
  - PeterIcedale
    
    I agree with you, but when your name sounds like one of Bart Simpsons prank calls you should not be surprised if you are not believed at first. How would you react to Bea O’ Problem and I.P. Freely?
    
    Like I said, I think this is a boilerplate answer from FB and Twitter, and I guess that a scanned copy of a ID is not enough for anyone to get the “official” status. My guess is you need to send them an actual god-damn letter bearing an actual ink stamp from some sort of recognized governmental body. Mr Dotcom and TF are blowing this way out of proportions.

  There’s no law regarding fake ID on the Internet. You cannot of course use fake ID for driver’s licenses or any other form of official government ID, since that would be forgery. But there’s nothing in the law stopping a person from using a handle or penname on a website.

    Unfortunately, there are now laws about using fake ID on the Internet, at least for some Americans. One such law goes into effect today in Louisiana (along with around 500 other laws we don’t really need).

no one seems to think that there has been any pressure put on to these two organisations. perhaps it’s just me then that thinks the US DoJ will go to any lengths possible to continue to fuck the guy up. it’s nothing other than orchestrated vindictiveness because of the complete balls up that has been made over what was regarded as a forgone case win against Kim. still waiting for the next revelation in the case and what shit excuses are used by the US to NOT dismiss the case against him

    True that you can change a name, but would you take a person that introduces himself as Oliver Clothesoff or I.P. Freely at face value? If you have a name that sounds like one of Bart Simpsons prank calls you should be prepared to have to convince people. And as Mr Spartan states, send them an document from the NZ authorities and its no problem. Its just a bit more bureaucratic.

I actually find this quite amusing, in a weird and unknown way. I bet the email that facebook sent Kim Dotcom was automated. Any person who looked up details could find out that Kim Dotcom is real, and not a fake. As for that second twitter account, I bet that some people follow it knowing that it is a joke, and they get a laugh at the patheticness of the impersonation.

Also, another thing about that fake twitter account, there haven’t been posts since January. It is all just some goof joke. I think that anyone with common sense would see that. Then again, not everyone has that anymore…

Basically the two government agencies that pretend to be social media sites are not willing for Kim to have a verified place to speak. The imposter account is probably a FBICIA run account anyway.

It is just stupid for twitter not to do the right thing. By not checking out Dotcom and verifying his identity they are encouraging fraudulent behavior by the poser and setting an example as if to say “We really dont give a shit if you want to spam and be a twitter fraud. We are less than competent so do whatever you want”

I would not want an account with twitter anyway. Just too damned cheesy for me.

by Reddit, we have something that will hopefully do the trick, at least
