A lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James alleges that a ring of crypto scammers stole at least $2.2 million from New Yorkers through fake remote job offers. James seeks to become the first regulator to file a lawsuit against anonymous airdropped NFT scammers.
New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a new lawsuit Thursday seeking to recover $2.2 million in frozen stablecoins from an alleged ring of scammers targeting New Yorkers seeking remote work opportunities.
While the identities of the alleged scammers are currently unknown, James’ lawsuit describes a sophisticated network that recruited victims by claiming to offer remote work opportunities before directing them to deposit stablecoins into a wallet controlled by the scammers.
