DEA Agent Carl Force Created a Fake Identity and a Backstory

Carl Force was asked to help the Baltimore Homeland Security team build a case against Silk Road in 2012. Carl believed it was a huge case, but he had no specialized computer knowledge so wasn't something he could handle. He jumped at the opportunity and started researching the site every day after work. On April 21, 2012, DEA agent Carl Force registered on Silk Road with the username, NOB The first thing Carl did when he registered was send the Dread Pirate Roberts a message saying he was a graded mirer of his work And then introduced himself using the backstory he had created Using that backstory, Carl wanted to make a proposal about buying the site.
