The_last_name_left found this link a while back. At the end, a list of contacts with addresses was provided. One of them was for disinformation personality Michael Rivero of WhatReallyHappened.com.


Michael Rivero
20500 W. Country Club Drive
Aventura, Florida 33180

That's the same address BankIndex.com used to provide on their contact page.

socrates :: Internet Disinfo Racket Tied to Former Department of Justice Employee
Instead of Rivero finally owning up to who has been behind the success of his website, he denied the connection in an email sent to the administrator of the board where TLNL had first posted that shocking information.

...providing private details such as my brother's previous address for the purposes of applying coercive pressure is defined as an act of terror under the USAPATRIOT act.

His brother? I don't think so, but thanks go out to Mike anyway for not coming up with a better cover story. It looks like we now know exactly who has been bankrolling the What Really Happened website.

Thanks also go out to J. Conti of BankIndex.com, who years ago gave an interview to the right wing, disinfo writer. That was quite the strange partnership. I'm guessing that ever since the mysterious S. Boyle exposed that relationship, a decision was made to take the scrub brush out of the closet. Both BankIndex.com and PMC4.com have been flushed down the memory hole. BankIndex.com used to do a number of those with kooky conspiracy theorists. I see through google that at a minimum, BankIndex.com interviews with Henry Makow, Victor Thorne, and Jim Marrs also took place.

In December, 2002, the mysterious S. Boyle wrote the following.


So why would Michael Rivero, an avowed anti-globalist, anti-corporate champion of the truth be working for (or very closely with) a corporate operation like PMC4, LLC?

(http://www.pmc4.com/version2/index.asp) Perhaps a better [question] to ask is what kind of business is the Aventura, Florida corporation?

"From web hosting to options to multi-faceted revenue generation strategies, PMC4, LLC offers a variety of services and solutions intended to optimize your path to profitability.", and their objective is to specialize "in assisting small to medium sized businesses as well as Fortune 100 companies whose presence on the Internet is more than ancillary to their core business." (http://www.pmc4.com/version2/objective.asp)

The "About Us" section reveals five key figures behind the PMC4 corporate structure: James P. Garib, founder of an Intellectual property development firm; Peter Sordjan, a technology-focused financial entrepreneur; Ruben D. Lupulescu, a former computer engineer for Hughes Electronics and DirectTV Latin America; Lawrence D. Kruguer, a seasoned marketing VP for fat-cats like American Express, SportsLine, and Alamo Rent-a-Car; and Rico M. Sogocio, attorney and former member of the United States Department of Justice.

Here's the lowdown on Rico M. Sogocio courtesy of the wayback machine.

It's strange how BankIndex.com and pmc4.com have closed shop. I sense it's because of the work a few cybersleuths did back in the day. The disinfo fockers tried to intimidate S. Boyle with threats of lawsuits. S. Boyle seems to have made only one mistake.... or maybe he didn't? Carol Adler's Dandelion Books was the publishing house which worked with Michael Rivero. S. Boyle mistakenly assumed that Dandelion Books in addition to BankIndex.com was owned by PMC4, LLC. However, the only provable connection between Adler and PMC4, LLC was that books were being sold through GoOff.com, another PMC4, LLC owned subsidiary.  

I've got S. Boyle's back. I just found a little tidbit of information which may validate his assumption that Dandelion Books was actually owned by PMC4, LLC no matter how it has been spun otherwise. Remember that former Department of Justice employee who was one of the big five of PMC4, LLC? Apparently Rico Sogocio was Carol Adler's partner!

Carol Adler, Dandelion Books, promotes herself as "the authors' publisher".

In reality she is a Con Artist.

On March 10, 2003, I signed a Publishing Agreement with Carol Adler and her (then) partner Rico Sogocio....

Rico left a comment denying PMC4, LLC were partners with Adler.


Dandelion Books and PMC4, LLC were at one time engaged in a collaborative effort to promote and sell "non-mainstream" books through the website GoOff.com.

Any contracts bearing my name were signed in my capacity as general counsel and authorized representative of PMC4.

Due to minimal book sales and internal changes within PMC4, Dandelion Books and PMC4 ended the collaborative effort in May 2003 and GoOff.com became defunct.

Although I have no recollection of this specific author or her book(s), relatively few books ended up being sold via GoOff.com....

Can anyone say lipstick on a pig? It looks like this story evolved into damage control ever since PMC4, LLC got outed by the mysterious S. Boyle. I think we might have found the head of the disinfo octopus or at least a major tentacle. I think they got busted, plain and simple. Rivero wrote some book for Dandelion. He was interviewed by Bank Index. Now we know that Mike Rivero's work address was the same as BankIndex/PMC4, LLC. Oops, Mike says his brother used to work there, not him. Yeah right, Mike! And the Joos control the world!!! And they did 9/11. And what a great guy you are for pimping for the Special Forces Underground, Willis Carto, Zundel, Rense.com, Alex Jones, Tinoire of Progressive Independent, Curtis Maynard, and many more dispensers of internet convolution!!!!! That's the ticket!

We now know who is behind Michael Rivero. We now know what has always been suspected. The rise of WRH was anything but organic.

That's fairly incredible for this to be hitting the mainstream. Dave Weintraub had a diary at DKos on Turner and his relationship to Hannity. I've a funny feeling MajorFlaw might be friends with that crowd. I could track down the two diaries I'm thinking of, if you want me to. I found Flaw's targeting of DFQ a bit strange, a bit too much. Have you heard of Danny Casolaro and the Octopus? It's a different story and actually bigger but it's where my mind is at now. That Max Blumenthal article hints that Hal Turner is part of a bigger milieu. The governor is now involved? Wow. I love it when respected journalists cover stuff like this which seems to never get any mainstream coverage. I'm gonna run over to one of my websites and find you a screenshot of info pertaining to Hal Turner. Someone like that never should have been supported by anyone. He is as bad as Stormfront. He is a fringe lunatic. Or is he an actor? I don't think Rivero believes even 10% of the crap he spews. If Turner and Rivero don't fit the mold for internet cointelpro, then I don't know who would.

Hal Turner put up bomb making directions years ago. I don't think he ever got in trouble for that. It's in the second column down a bit. I didn't take this screenshot.

Here's the email hackers found concerning the FBI connection. You might want to grab your reading glasses. <-:)

Ok wow, I was going through DFQ diaries to find the stuff he wrote pertaining to Hal Turner. DFQ was all over him and Hannity. I'm not trying to overload anyone. The links are here if anyone wants to check them out. I'm just thinking no way was MajorFlaw doing what he did for free. I know my gut instinct is not proof, but I do feel it's an easy call to make that he was paid to post and working on behalf of some internet disinfo octopus. Dave posed a definite threat in regards to both the blogosphere and his ability to bring we the people together. I think he even aspired to someday become Mayor of NYC. I think he could have done it. I definitely advise folks to check out his Lessons of Long Island diary and see how Flaw flipped out trying to defend the likes of Fox News people. One would have to go further back to when Dave was blossoming in regards to confronting Mark Levin and Hannity, things to do with going to bookstores, to see when MajorFlaw first came across as cointelpro boy in regards to DFQ.

The Lessons Of Long Island
Did Sean Hannity Have Sex With Hal Turner?
HannityTurnerGate Widens
Nazi Hal Turner Acknowledges Friendship With Hannity

Eric S. was getting trolled on at FSZ just like myself, Lordship, donkeytale, and Noom. He recently made a guest post at DFQ2 on the big Al Giordano thread. I see he too had a diary on Hal Turner.

Hannity's Neo-Nazi Buddy, FBI front?

You know, the MajorFlaw story was huge, and I think it was an example of direct contact with internet cointelpro. FSZ deserves nothing but scorn for how they covered up the truth. MattyJack said that creep was a regular guy. He took down the UGOG files for a long time. I wish the DFQ website was still around. I could probably recreate some specifics. I have stuff on my comp and on threads elsewhere. Dave was a genius to figure out who MajorFlaw was and what he was doing. MF blurted out something about a case he worked on at his ugog site. It had to do with something called BAMRA. Dave would make a mistake here and there, and people jumped all over him. MattyJack tried to pervert what really happened. That's why myself and donkeytale stood up for Dave's legacy and confronted all the lies and whitewashing in real time. I only got to speak with DFQ a few times. Abbeysbooks was just about the only person who was in his corner. She was onto MajorFlaw and that KosKop bullshit a year before Dave was. DFQ was uniquely talented enough to not only figure it out but prove it. That guy was a genius, and I just want to say one more thing. It's not easy being a trollbuster on one's own. There's no one to help correct mistakes, to let's say watch one's back. A dude from Wales has also been into figuring out Michael Rivero's part of the disinfo Octopus. We have made some great advances because we have been able to work together. My strong belief is that internet cointelpro is real. I also believe it has been figured out. One can't always tell between who is an operative, political or intel, and who is a self-serving grifter along with those who are simply confused, which I'll add my name to that latter part at times. But the main characters have been figured out. There are nuggets. The story could be written and published today. I think one of the last things Dave wrote was that he wouldn't have to lift another finger, and the part of the disinfo octopus he figured out would stll be solved. I believe that. But there is so much more. So many more names. But they can all be connected. I think that's why I have been attacked so much. Because I was into trying to see the big picture and not get bogged down in one milieu. I think that's the one thing I'd advise a guy like Francis to do, move beyond just thinking about MAMZ, though that appears to be a big chunk of the total picture also. Please pardon my indulgence with this post.
