Techub News 消息,据 The Block 报道,Praetorian Group International(PGI)首席执行官 Ramil Ventura Palafox 因操纵 2 亿美元比特币庞氏骗局,欺诈全球逾 9 万名投资者,被判处 20 年监禁。
2019 年 12 月至 2021 年 10 月期间,Palafox 向投资者宣称公司从事高额比特币交易,承诺每日回报率达 0.5% 至 3%。然而该公司实际交易规模根本无法产生此类收益。全球逾 9 万名投资者在此期间向 PGI 注入超过 2.01 亿美元资金,其中包括至少 3030 万美元现金及 8198 枚比特币(当时估值约 1.715 亿美元)。投资者最终蒙受至少 6270 万美元损失。Palafox 于去年九月对电汇欺诈和洗钱指控认罪。根据认罪协议,其同意支付 6270 万美元赔偿金。司法部声明指出,受害者可通过联邦调查局申请赔偿金。
