Conviction for fraud and driving offenses On 18 November 2025, Denoon was convicted at the Bülach District Court on charges of commercial fraud, driving without authorization and gross violation of traffic rules in connection with exceeding the signaled speed limit.

He was then able to claim the refund before the package arrived back at the vendor. He admitted to doing this 44 times for a total cost of more than 70,000 francs.

The punishment he received was two years in prison and a fine of 45,000 francs, both suspended for two years. In addition, there is a fine of 3,000 francs and the procedural costs of 5,000 francs. He has to pay back the 70,775 francs he had stolen from Digitec-Galaxus.
