The most recent case, uncovered by Vice’s Motherboard, focuses on one Curtis “Dola” Alexander. In a search warrant filed on Oct. 22, agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigations stated that Alexander was allegedly involved in a “multi-kilogram level” cocaine deal. As the narrative goes, an FBI source reportedly requested nine ounces of cocaine via the PS4 messaging client. Curtis, believing that in-game voice communication was more secure than text chat, asked that the transaction continue “during game.”
