According to Odaily, the Boston division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is calling on individuals potentially affected by cryptocurrency scams to actively participate in an ongoing investigation. The bureau has explained that leaders from four cryptocurrency companies and four market makers are facing charges related to fraud and market manipulation. These individuals are accused of coordinating trades to create false trading volumes, misleading investors, and artificially inflating cryptocurrency prices through 'wash trading.' The scheme targeted several cryptocurrencies, including Saitama, Saitarealty, Saitachain, Robo Inu, VZZN, Lillian Finance, and Nexfund AI.
The FBI stated, 'If you have purchased or sold any of the aforementioned cryptocurrencies, or otherwise believe you may have been affected by the alleged conduct, please contact us. The FBI's legal authority is to identify victims of federal crimes under investigation. Victims may be eligible for certain services, compensation, and rights provided by federal and/or state law.'
