An update on Mohammed Bassal Wanli:

a.k.a. Mohammed B. Wanli,
a.k.a. Moe Wanli,
or most recently, Basil,

Around 2017 (to current) he's switched gears and started to engage in civil scams instead criminal ones, typically rental scams. He will list on Craigslist the place he's renting and ask for cash deposit from unsuspecting renters and a few months rent. Then by the time people move in, they'll realize this scammer is actually living in the unit and now have to eat their losses or enter Residential tenancy branch dispute which can take 1/2 a year.

This guy is a career criminal.
