Maxi Sopo Is The Fugitive That Gave Facebook Updates On His Whereabouts!

Maxi Sopo is the dumb ass fugitive that snitched on himself by posting updates on his whereabouts & lifestyle on Facebook! Talk about your stupid criminals.This fool is going to go down in the annals of history as one of the dumbest criminals on the face of the earth!

Here's more on this idiot from The Post and Courier:

"Maxi Sopo was living the dream of a fugitive abroad, kicking back on the beaches of Cancun by day, partying in the clubs by night.

Then he did two things that are never a good idea when you're on the run from authorities: He started posting Facebook updates about how much fun he was having, then added a former Justice Department official to his list of friends.

Because of that indiscretion, the 26-year-old native of Cameroon is now in a Mexico City jail awaiting extradition to the United States on bank fraud charges. Federal prosecutors said he and an associate falsely obtained more than $200,000 from Seattle-area banks and credit unions.

"He was making posts about how beautiful life is and how he was having a good time with his buddies," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Scoville, who helped find Sopo. "He was definitely not living the way we wanted him to be living, given the charges he was facing."

Even in the hold-nothing-back world of social networking, where police search Facebook photos for evidence of underage drinking and watch YouTube videos to identify riot suspects, it's rare that a fugitive helps authorities this much.

In status updates, Sopo said he was "loving it" and "living in paradise."

"LIFE IS VERY SIMPLE REALLY!!!!" he wrote June 21. "BUT SOME OF US HUMANS MAKE A MESS OF IT...REMEMBER AM JUST HERE TO HAVE FUN PARTEEEEEEE."

Sopo, who came to the United States in about 2003, made a living selling roses in Seattle nightclubs until, according to prosecutors, he moved on to bank fraud.

He apparently drove a rented car to Mexico in late February after learning that federal agents were investigating the alleged fraud scheme.

Investigators initially could find no trace of him on social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace, and they were unable to pin down his location in Mexico.

Several months later, Secret Service agent Seth Reeg checked Facebook again, and up popped Maxi Sopo. His photo showed him wearing a black jacket as he stood in front of a party backdrop featuring logos of BMW and Courvoisier cognac."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
