Brooklyn DA Shuts Down 40 Fraudulent NFT Websites After Artist Scam

According to Cointelegraph, the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office has successfully shut down 40 fraudulent non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace websites following a scam that defrauded an 85-year-old artist of $135,000. The artist was deceived by an individual posing as an art dealer on LinkedIn, who persuaded him to mint his artwork on a counterfeit NFT marketplace designed to mimic the New York-based OpenSea platform. The scammer falsely informed the artist that he had earned $300,000 in profits. However, to access these supposed earnings, the artist was required to pay a $135,000 fee. To meet this demand, he liquidated his retirement account, used credit card payments, and took out a loan. It was only after these actions that he realized the promised $300,000 was a fabrication, leaving him both emotionally and financially devastated. District Attorney Eric Gonzalez highlighted that the tactics used in this case led investigators to uncover a network of fraudulent websites targeting artists. He expressed hope that shutting down these domains and raising awareness would prevent further victims. The office also reported that two other artists from Georgia and California fell prey to the same NFT scam. The District Attorney’s Virtual Currency Unit traced the stolen funds to accounts at a Nigerian exchange, where they were primarily converted into Nigerian currency, making recovery efforts challenging. The investigation revealed that the fake OpenSea website appeared to be controlled and funded from Nigeria. Some of the fraudulent websites even prompted visitors to enter their crypto wallet seed phrases, potentially allowing scammers to drain the contents of users' online wallets. The Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office stressed the importance of using only reputable NFT marketplaces for selling artwork and remaining vigilant against phishing attempts via email or websites that mimic well-known NFT platforms. Artists were also advised never to disclose their crypto wallet seed phrases. The office cautioned, "If it seems too good to be true, it likely is," urging individuals to conduct thorough research and seek advice from fellow artists.

Brooklyn DA Shuts Down Fraudulent NFT Domains in Scam Crackdown

According to DLNews, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez has announced the closure of 40 fraudulent NFT marketplace domains as part of an effort to combat a scam targeting artists across the United States. This operation was initiated following an incident involving an 85-year-old Brooklyn painter who was defrauded of $135,000 by scammers posing as art dealers. The victim was approached on LinkedIn by individuals claiming to represent 'OpenSea/Private Mint,' a counterfeit platform designed to mimic the legitimate NFT marketplace OpenSea.The scammers convinced the artist to mint his artwork as NFTs and pay fees to access over $300,000 in fabricated Bitcoin earnings. Believing he would earn a substantial profit, the artist liquidated his IRA, maxed out his credit cards, and took out a loan to pay the scammers. DA Gonzalez stated, 'These were the tactics used in this case, leading our investigators to a network of fraudulent websites that specifically scammed artists.' He expressed hope that by shutting down these domains and raising awareness about the scheme, others would be prevented from falling victim to similar scams.While the seizure of 40 domains marks a significant achievement, it is not a permanent solution. Scammers can easily replicate the scheme by using identical templates and slightly altering domain names to continue their operations. Numerous other cases have been reported where artists have fallen prey to similar scams, with fraudsters exploiting social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter. They often approach artists with offers of exorbitant payments in cryptocurrency to create NFTs, only to charge fraudulent 'minting fees' through fake platforms.This crackdown occurs as NFTs are experiencing a resurgence in popularity and cryptocurrency prices are reaching record highs. The operation underscores the ongoing challenges in combating digital fraud and the need for increased vigilance among artists and other potential victims.

UK Tax Authority Faces Challenges In Valuing Seized NFTs

According to DLNews, nearly two years after British officials seized three non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in a tax fraud investigation, the UK's tax authority is still grappling with how to value these digital assets. Since the 2022 operation, no additional NFTs have been seized, and Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is in the preliminary stages of developing methods to appraise the worth of NFTs. The agency disclosed this information in response to a Freedom of Information request, stating that it is "exploring options regarding the valuation [and] appraisal method for seized NFTs." The NFTs were seized alongside approximately £5,000, or $6,345, in cryptocurrency as part of an investigation into a £1.4 million VAT fraud scheme involving over 250 suspected fake companies. This incident, first reported by the Daily Telegraph, marked the first NFT seizure in the UK. HMRC has not commented on whether the three seized NFTs have been sold. At the time of the seizure, Nick Sharp, the deputy director for economic crime at HMRC, issued a warning to those attempting to hide money from tax authorities, emphasizing that the agency constantly adapts to new technology to keep pace with criminals and evaders. HMRC has declined to provide further details on the options it is exploring or how it manages custody of NFTs, citing concerns that such information could enable opportunists to undermine compliance activities and prejudice the agency's ability to prevent or detect crime. The agency also expressed concerns that revealing its retention methods could increase the risk of criminals targeting HMRC staff or other parties in attempts to recover seized assets. Additionally, disclosing its tactics could allow criminals to develop techniques that might inhibit HMRC's ability to identify or seize assets in the future. NFTs, such as those in the Bored Ape Yacht Club collection, are typically valued based on factors like rarity, cultural significance, and the fluctuating crypto market. Once popular among speculative investors and celebrities, the NFT market has cooled significantly since its peak in 2021.
