When I read the complaint, I was starting to wonder if "redandwhite" was an undercover cop.

R&W was the alleged supplier of the guy who wanted to blackmail Dread, and he's the one Dread reached out to to kill him. He emailed photos of proof and got paid, but the FBI said they didn't have any evidence of a murder as described in the correspondence going down.

And then when Ross wanted forged IDs to rent out servers without getting them all traced to him, R&W was the one who agreed to get it done, but his package was intercepted.

I wasn't paying much attention at first, so my first thought was that perhaps R&W was a Fed, and I wondered why that didn't come up in the complaint. Then I read through again and realized R&W is Canadian.

How far fetched would it be for a US investigation and a Canadian sting operation to unknowingly bump into each other?
