US v. Poupak Jannissar

In an effort to assist those individuals who have been affected by this case, this webpage has been developed to provide court hearing dates and case-related information. 

According to court documents, Poupak Jannissar, of Quebec, Canada, operated and controlled sham companies that used fake checks and other fraudulent debits to steal from his victims’ accounts at banks in the United States. The defendant and his co-conspirators used various names for the sham companies, which pretended to sell various internet-based services for consumers, such as cloud storage, internet faxing, and online books. However, the sham companies did not actually provide any real product and service. Instead, the sham companies served as a cover story for Jannissar and his co-conspirators to steal money from bank accounts.

An indictment in the District of Nevada charges Jannissar with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of money laundering. The sham companies identified in the indictment include Computer Run, EBooks, Joreeb, Memo Storage, Our Online Backup, You Can Fax Too, and Your E-Library.  View the Indictment.

Please note that hearing and trial dates and times are subject to change.   Any case related updates will be posted to this webpage.
