The South Korean police reported on the detention of the alleged organizer of a large fraudulent crypto scheme, the victims of which were 158 investors. In total, the criminal lured 16 billion won ($12 million) from them.
The suspect is accused of creating a fraudulent crypto investment scheme that existed from November 2021 to June 2022. Depositors were promised a monthly income of at least 18% of investments in the mining of digital assets.
Ten months ago, an investigation was launched against the suspect and an arrest warrant was issued. He managed to evade justice for a while, changing his appearance with the help of makeup and plastic surgery, which cost about 21 million won ($16,000).
However, according to South Korean law enforcement officers, the police managed to identify the criminal by analyzing video surveillance recordings, telephone conversations and the history of his search on the Internet.
