A California court has ordered five individuals involved in the IcomTech Ponzi scheme to pay over $5 million for fraud. The group, including David Carmona and Juan Arellano Parra, misled 190 investors by promising Bitcoin investments through a fake platform, ultimately misappropriating $8.4 million. Each is fined $1 million and must pay restitution, while being banned from CFTC markets. Carmona, the scheme's mastermind, received a 10-year prison sentence, with others receiving similar penalties. IcomTech lured victims with promises of 100% returns and lavish events.
