The law enforcement divisions do care.. Using a computer to swindle carries Federal law violations that are tough charges and looked for by specific agencies that do just that..

I imagine he is just coming into the crosshairs of law enforcement. He has been banned from facebook, so his method of scamming has been reduced.

He also has a history of scamming would-be donors. Kolfage previously led a crowdfunding charge that claimed to raise money for veterans at military hospitals, but a spokesperson for the medical facilities told Buzzfeed News they have no record of Kolfage donating a penny.

You really should verify information, especially if it comes from BF. Here is a link to Brian's FB page.....https://www.facebook.com/Brian.Kolfage.jr/ This is not the first person that BF has tried to tear apart. But, that is their issue. If you want to retain integrity, do verify what they say because more than 90 percent of what they print is hogwash.

Snopes agrees with you on the wall funding.
He had other facebook accounts, not personal, that were blocked.

Facebook has "purged" their system, deleting the vast majority of conservatives and out spoken Christians. Facebook titled many people and groups as "provocateurs, or ‘dangerous’ accounts." They started this last year, I suppose in response to the then on going Mueller investigation and the heat they took for the Russian "propaganda" and spamming. Whether you agree with them or not, many people have been removed, blocked, or otherwise banned from facebook. When asked, they simply say the person or group was a causality of zuccing. So, do not be too quick to call a person or group as "bad" or "wrong" because they were removed, they just might be a victim of zuccing.

Buzzfeed is liberal so what would you expect to be any different? Show me a conservative report saying the same thing and I will backtrack and say I was wrong.

Facebook accounts that BF say have been banned from belonging to Brian Kolfage ..... are still there:

https://www.facebook.com/Fight4Speech/
https://www.facebook.com/UpliftMEnow/?ref=py_c

And of course the wall facebook (see earlier comment)

These are the only three that FB has record of, none have been "deactivated" or "blocked." As yet he has not been a victim of zuccing.

I also have to give a "big thank you" to admin support at FB for doing the research for me so quickly.

No...they weren't. You know this as well as I do.

Sometimes intent can be hard to prove, perhaps they are still trying to gather evidence showing intent. running a failed campaign should NEVER be a criminal act, engaging in a scam campaign ALWAYS MUST be considered a criminal act, therefore intent is crucial.

Those pages weren't listed in any of the articles I have read concerning his fake news empire. It is likely that he hasn't used those to push fake news yet and maybe he never intends to with those pages. only pages that break the rules should get banned, though it was further stated that he himself is banned from FB, in that case they should dump those pages too.

As for your "These are the only three that FB has record of, none have been "deactivated" or "blocked." As yet he has not been a victim of zuccing. " statement, true, they have no record of deleted pages, that is typically the difference between a temporary ban and a deletion.
