Tariq Malik, Pranknet's founder and leader, is pictured in a webcam still taken in his Windsor, Ontario bedroom.
I hope they nail his a$$ to the wall.

Sounds to me more like terrorism rather than pranks. Albeit on a low level - but still. Of course if his name were Ole Olafson I would have gone with the prank thingy.

Well, if TSG knows who he is and who his confederates are, why doesn’t the FBI lock his butt up?
Some of the pranks were funny but these guys need to nailed for all the destruction they caused. They will be extradited and prosecuted
That article is serious and deserving punishment.
And how could TSG track this creep down but not the FBI?
bump.
... OMG!!! break the mirror!
Gotta commend TSG for their tenacity and boldness in chasing down this scum where it lives.
[mark for later perusal]
On July 21, a pair of TSG reporters approached "Dex"'s building at 1637 Assumption Street in Windsor, where he lives in the ground-floor 'B' apartment. Calling to his mother, who was standing near an open living room window, a reporter asked her to summon her son. The woman disappeared into "Dex"'s adjoining bedroom, where the pair could be heard whispering. Despite repeated requests to come out and speak with TSG, "Dex" hid with his mother in his bedroom, the windows of which were covered with plastic shopping bags, a towel, and one black trash bag.
As the sun set and his room darkened, "Dex" did not reach to turn on a light. The notorious Internet Tough Guy, who has gleefully used the telephone to cause all kinds of havoc, was now himself panicking. He had been found. And, as a result, was barricaded in Pranknet World Headquarters with his mom, while two reporters loitered outside his window and curious neighbors wondered what was up.
That's when the online outlaw came up with a plan.
Tariq Malik, the 25-year-old founder and leader of Pranknet, decided to call the police.
Go TSG!
