Alec Difrawi
Country: United States
On April 28, 2016, long time Mob Boss and cyber-criminal Ayman A. Difrawi aka Alec Difrawi aka Ayman A. El-Defrawi aka Michael Difrawi aka Alec Defrawy aka Alexander Simon AlexanderSimon02@aol.com has admitted to FRAUD - Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
FTC PRESS RELEASE:https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/press-release ... ing-job-seekers

The Complaint and Stipulation published by the FTC seem to say that in 2012 mobster Alec Difrawi started Softrock, Inc., Gigats and his other business enterprises engaged in deceptive and fraudulent practices in generating leads for educational institutions. Quite the contrary.  The lead generation is just a cover for Mr. Difrawi business practices online.

To the many bloggers and other cyber security experts who Mr. Difrawi have sued and threaten over the years, this is a slapped in the face. Mr. Difrawi engaged in these practices beginning 2004 and was written about by blogger Klaas.de, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, Helen Hunt of the Orlando Sentinel as the internet was flooded with his business practices.

Three bloggers stood up to Mr. Difrawi threats. Tabatha Marshall, Investigator Reporter Les Henderson and the founded of scamFRAUDalert Archie Garga-Richardson. What recourse do these bloggers have against the chain of collaborators that aided in this FRAUD.

We believe Alec Difrawi should be in prison along with Lou Pearlman. This is the rightful place for Mr. Difrawi and the FBI should act sooner rather than later.

    I have been reviewing the case of EXPAND INCORPORATED dba SOFTROCK (Plaintiff) aka Alec Difrawi or Ayman A. Difrawi vs INSIDERSREFERRRAL COM INC Case # 2015-CA-008255-O. in the Ninth Circuit of Orange County, Orlando, Florida with some dismayed.

    Judge Lisa T. Munyon issued an Order of Dismissal on Feb. 22, 2016 for lack of Jurisdiction with prejudice citing case laws:
    "Plaintiff alleges that Defendant "owns and operates jobs-to-careers.com domain and website that is accessible and has been accessed in Orange County,

    Florida." Am. Compl. 1T 5.
    The difference between a passive website and an active website has been described as follows: "A passive web site only makes information available to those interested in viewing the web site in foreign jurisdictions whereas an active web site allows for those interested in foreign jurisdictions to enter into contracts over the Internet with the defendant."

    Internet Sols. Corp. v. Marshall, 39 So. 3d 1201, 12ll-12 (Fla. 2010) (quoting Miami Breokers Soccer Club, Inc. v. Il'omen's United Soccer Ass'n, 140 F. Supp. 2d 1325,1329 (S.D. Fla. 2001)). See Caiazzo v. Am. Royal Arts Corp., 73 So. 3d245, 253 (Fla.4th DCA 20ll) (discussing Florida has never adopted the Zippo sliding scale test for determining whether to assert jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant in the internet context).

    While an active website may confer jurisdiction over a nonresident, allegations of a passive website, standing alone, does not. See Westwind Limo., Inc. v. Shorter, 932 So. 2d 57l, 575 n. 7 (Fla. 5th DCA 2006) (citing Miller v. Berman, 289 F. Supp. 2d 1327 , 1334-35 (M.D. FLa.2003)) ("[N]ot[ing] that 'merely post[ing] a passive website' does not constitute either the solicitation of business in Florida or the transaction of business in Florida, for purposes of a jurisdictional due process analysis."); Renaissance Health Pub., LLC v. Resveratrol Partners, LLC,982 So. 2d 739,742 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008) (concluding that "[t]he defendants' interactive web
    site which sells product to Florida residents . . . [satisfies] the initial burden under Venetian Salami. . . ."); see also Marshall, 39 So. 3d at 1216.

    Plaintiff s allegation describes Defendant's website as a passive website. See Marshall, 39 So. 3d 1201, l2ll-12; Shorter,932 So. 2d 571, 575 n. 7; Am. Compl. tT5. Furthermore, Plaintiff does not allege that Defendant committed a tortious act on their alleged website that was accessed in Florida. See Marshall, 39  So. 3d at Page 5 of 13 1216; Am. Compl.'lTfl 3l-33,36-40. Accordingly, the Court agrees that, based on the allegations of Plaintiff s Amended Complaint, Defendant's alleged website is insufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over Defendant. See Wendt,822 So. 2d at 1257; Bryan,433 So. 2d at 578; Am Sampling, Inc., 564 So. 2d at 592; Mears, 421 So. 2d at744."

    Judge Munyon reference Internet Solutions Corporation abbreviated "Solutions"- (Internet Sols. Corp. v. Marshall, 39 So. 3d 1201, 12ll-12) (Fla. 2010). Internet Solutions Corporation owner is Alec Difrawi aka Ayman A. Difrawi and also were the Plaintiffs in the case of EXPAND INCORPORATED vs. GLADWELL, TERRI, CASE#: 2013-CA-002582-O for which the Judge presided. This Judge also presided over the case of INTERNET SOLUTIONS CORPORATIONet al. vs. GARGA-RICHARDSON, ARCHIE, Case # 2009-CA-000712-O.

    Plainntiff then filed a fraudulent amended complaint for which Judge Munyon proceeded to set a pre-trial date for July 31, 2017. This Judge has repeated ruled in Expand Inc. aka Alec Difrawi favor ignorging the facts and rule of law.

    Have Judge Munyon been made aware of the recent FTC stipulation regarding Expand Incorporated dba Softrock, Inc. dba Internet Solutions Corporation, etc. etc. etc.?   Expand Incorporated and it's Principal Owner Alec Difrawi has pleaded guilty to FRAUD on April 28, 2016 and agreed to a joint stipulation by the FTC.

    So why did Judge Lisa Taylor Munyon (Lisa T. Munyon) had a changed of heart on her road to Damascus in the case of EXPAND INCORPORTED dba SOFTROCK, INC. CASE NO.: 2015-CA-008255-O  dba Internet Solutions Corporation dba Career Network aka Ayman Difrawi aka Ayman A. El-Difrawi aka Alec Difrawi aka Alec Defrawy vs. INSIDERSREFERRAL.COM, INC., dba JOBS2CAREERS.COM or Jobtocareers.com reverted to her original ruling that Florida Courts do not have Jurisdictional powers over non-resident individuals?
    Quote
    To determine whether Florida long-arm stature (section 48.193) jurisdiction has been correctly invoked to confer jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant, "[first, it must be determined that the complaint alleges sufficient jurisdictional facts to bring the action within the ambit of the statute; and if it does, the next inquiry is whether sufficient 'minimum contacts' are demonstrated to satisfy due process requirements."

    Note: Due process requirement. Does Judge Munyon believe that Due Process Requirements were met in the case of INTERNET SOLUTIONS CORPORATIONet al. vs. GARGA-RICHARDSON, ARCHIE, Case # 2009-CA-000712-O? Judge Munyon was the initial residing Judge and subsequently replaced by Judge F. Rand Wallis and now Judge John Marshall Kest.

    My guess is that Federal officials are now observing these Judge's rulings having obtained an Injunctive Relief against Ayman Alec Difrawi, a well known criminal in the Orlando, Florida area.

    Now that the FTC have issued it final Order against cybercriminal Alec Difrawi aka Ayman A. Difrawi aka Ayman El-Difrawi aka Alec Defrawy dba Expand, Inc. dba Softrock, Inc. dba Internet Solutions Corporation and other entities which enjoined Attorneys associated or affilated with Expand, Inc. or Alec Difrawi, it is only fitting to list those Attorneys that were egregious in their participation in prosecuting bloggers.
