Was sagt ihr dazu? Die bulgarische OneCoin Founderin/Scammerin, Ruta Ignatova auch als "Crypto Queen" bekannt, hat es auf die Top 10 Most Wanted List vom FBI geschafft.
OneCoin war ein Multi-Level-Marketing-Scam mit dem Token "OneCoin", der nicht einmal auf einer Blockchain lief und auch nicht auf CoinMarketCap gelistet war.
Trotzdem fielen potentiell Millionen User auf den Scam rein. Der Schaden soll sich auf Milliarden belaufen. Irre.
2017 tauchte die Scammerin unter.
Ihr Bruder hat versucht das Geschäft eine Zeit lang fortzuführen, wurde dann aber verhaftet.
Kopfgeld beträgt 100K Dollar.
Was sagt ihr dazu? Ist ziemlich abenteuerlich.
