A Florida woman, Maria Vaca, has filed a lawsuit against Google, claiming the tech giant took three months to remove a scam crypto app that stole $5 million. Vaca alleged that Google made false representations about app authenticity, safety, and security. The app, Yobit Pro, claimed to be a crypto wallet but was operated by cyber criminals. Vaca deposited $4.6 million into the app, only to be asked for more funds under false pretenses. Despite complaints to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Google took action after three months, affecting at least five others. In a separate case, a Texas federal judge allowed crypto YouTuber Ian Balina to appeal allegations of promoting unregistered securities through Sparkster tokens. Meanwhile, Malaysian authorities arrested seven individuals for running an illegal Bitcoin mining operation near Kuala Lumpur. Norway's sovereign wealth fund increased its indirect Bitcoin exposure, while the US Marshals Service is suspected of selling Bitcoin from the Silk Road darknet market.
