The saga of the Cryptoqueen: Ruja Ignatova and the $4B OneCoin Ponzi scheme
Ruja Ignatova is alleged to have defrauded investors in an apparent $4 billion Ponzi scheme from the inception of Onecoin in 2014 until the 2017 collapse
A High Court of Justice in the United Kingdom has issued a Worldwide Freezing Order on Aug. 7 against Ruja Ignatova, also known as the “Cryptoqueen,” and several of her alleged accomplices in the OneCoin scheme.
Over 400 victims who lost their funds in the OneCoin collapse joined forces to petition the court and freeze the assets of Ignatova, OneCoin co-founder Sebastian Greenwood, Christopher Hamilton, and Robert MacDonald, who allegedly helped launder funds on behalf of OneCoin, and four influencers who advertised OneCoin to the public.
さらに、イグナトワがワンコインから資金洗浄し、資産を購入するために利用したとされる事業体も、世界的な資産凍結の対象となった。
クリプトクイーンの物語は続く
Ruja Ignatova は、2014 年の Onecoin の開始から 2017 年の詐欺プロジェクトの崩壊と Ignatova の失踪まで、見かけ上 40 億ドルのポンジスキームで投資家をだまし取ったとされています。
クリプトクイーンは2017年にギリシャのアテネで最後に発見され、それ以来目撃されていないため、連邦捜査局(FBI)は彼女を最重要指名手配リスト10人に入れました。
2024 年 1 月、米国国務省はイグナトワの捕獲と有罪判決につながる情報に対して 500 万ドルの懸賞金を提供し始めましたが、イグナトワの目撃情報は依然として掴みどころがなく、クリプトクイーンの所在も同様に不明のままです。ワンコインの共犯者は正義に直面する
ルジャの弟、コンスタンティン・イグナトフは、2019年にマネーロンダリングと詐欺の罪で有罪を認めた。ワンコインの共犯者は、ねずみ講での役割で最高で懲役90年の刑に処せられる可能性があったが、3年後に釈放され、共謀したことで懲役刑を言い渡された。米国の捜査員と法廷でワンコインの弁護士マーク・スコットに対して証言
2019 年、スコットは銀行詐欺とマネーロンダリングに関連した罪で有罪判決を受け、米国検察が妥当と主張した 17 年よりもはるかに軽い刑期となった。
ワンコインの共同創設者カール・グリーンウッドも2023年に有罪判決を受け、この計画における役割で懲役20年の判決を受けた。グリーンウッド氏はまた、ワンコイン詐欺を助長したことで受け取った3億ドルの支払いも引き渡さざるを得なくなりました。
