Within months of her glamorous London debut, Ignatova vanished after defrauding over $4 billion from investors worldwide. Her company, OneCoin, operated like a pyramid scheme, promising huge returns that never materialized.
Ignatova, now one of the FBI's most-wanted fugitives, disappeared in 2017. Despite international efforts to locate her, she remains elusive.
