Daniel Rigmaiden was born in Seaside, California, and moved around the coast after graduating from high school, residing in a series of college towns.
He became an expert at creating fake IDs and sold them online to beer-obsessed college students for a tidy profit. He avoided college towns in favor of beach motels, tent camping, and rural camping.
He was arrested and imprisoned in May 2008 on charges of stealing $68,000 while using an AirCard. In 2014, he was released from prison. Daniel moved to Phoenix after being released from prison.
Rigmaiden worked from prison to decipher decades of secret, eventually becoming the world’s leading expert on the Stingray device, which had placed him in prison. By the time he was through, a covert surveillance device and the gear that kept it hidden would be exposed to the public for the first time.
Rigmaiden devised yet another method, this time involving the submission of tax returns for the recently departed, which he loved because it was essentially victimless.
Daniel became a government transparency crusader when US law enforcement used a secret cell phone surveillance device called Stingray to locate him inside his home.
Before Daniel made Stingray cell phone surveillance public in 2011, law enforcement kept the device secret from judges, defense counsel, and defendants, and frequently used it without a warrant.
Daniel has also testified in federal and state courts as a defense expert in cell phone spying cases.
He is a shy and friendly introvert who enjoys exploring the natural world. He spends some time sleeping in the woods, and other times free climbing and conquering cliffs.
Rigmaiden currently lives a simple life and earns no money from his legal practice, according to theverge.com. He had instead resigned from his telemarketing job.
The well-known con artist is active on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, where he keeps his followers up to date on his activities.
