An individual outside of m57.biz purchased a laptop from Craigslist. The laptop the individual purchased contained child pornography and they decided to inform the police about it.

Investigators were able to trace the laptop back to m57.biz. When the police contacted the CEO of m57.biz, the CEO reported that the laptop, as well as other items, had been stolen from the m57 inventory.
