This one is getting interesting:

- Sam Jain had a warrant issued for not showing up in court.  He's also got ongoing criminal cases against him going on elsewhere.

- Looks like Reno was providing an integral piece in deceiving users with the customer service call center (which basically tried to obfuscate and avoid reimbursing people who figured out the product did nothing).  He's also been working with Jain and Sundin since the eFront fiasco, so he had every reason to know things weren't above board.

- Daniel Sundin was probably the brains behind the whole thing, so let's hope the Feds go after him as well.
