After the SIM swap was performed, prosecutors said, Council then performed Internet searches that incriminated him in the fraud conspiracy. The searches included: “SECGOV hack,” “telegram sim swap,” “how can I know for sure if I am being investigated by the FBI,” and “What are the signs that you are under investigation by law enforcement or the FBI even if you have not been contacted by them.”
