Michigan attorney general uses Facebook message to serve $784K judgment

[TexasTowelie]

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel used a private message on Facebook to serve a court judgment to a 23-year-old man convicted of violating the Michigan Consumer Protection Act, officials said Wednesday.

After Christopher Carr, formerly of Troy, fled Michigan and stopped responding to traditional channels for court communications, Nessel obtained a judge’s permission to serve Carr a judgment ordering him to pay $784,328.

Carr formerly ran Fan Authentics and Printrageous, both online businesses -- but failed to deliver to customers after taking their credit card payments.

“Thousands of consumers were robbed of their money by Christopher Carr’s deceitful online business practices,” Nessel said in a statement. “I want this action to send a clear message that even if you leave the state, we will pursue you. This office will go after those who uses the internet to exploit consumers.”

1. Already a crook at the ripe old age of 23.

Ms. Nessel is not fooling around. She's been doing fantastic things since January 1st.
