Shkreli, who had been in the low-security prison in Fort Dix serving a seven-year fraud sentence, now is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown Brooklyn, according to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.

Using a cellphone behind the vast redbrick walls of Fort Dix is against the rules, but Liverman claims it isn’t difficult to obtain one. Fort Dix is like a "cellphone heaven.... There are hundreds of phones on this compound.

He will remain at the facility — not far from the location of his conviction in Brooklyn federal court — until he is transferred to his new home, a federal prison facility in Allenwood, Pennsylvania,

Reports of Shkreli's mobile phone use while in prison prompted one lawmaker to propose a bill last month that would jam mobile phone signals at prisons, blocking contraband usage.

"'Pharma Bro' Martin Shkreli is in jail for fraud, yet was able to continue his scam thanks to a contraband cellphone," Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Arkansas. "My bill would allow prisons to jam cellphones so inmates can't continue their crime sprees from behind bars."

The punishment for inmates caught with cellphones depends on how the case is handled.

If it's prosecuted in court, a conviction could tack on up to an extra year of prison time.

Within the inmate discipline program, having a cellphone is considered a 'greatest severity level' offense and carries sanctions ranging from loss to privileges to up to a year in solitary confinement.

In Shkreli's case, he could face more punishment if he's also found to have conducted business while locked up.

Other than the alleged cellphone flap, Shkreli has been pretty well behaved.
