Odaily Planet Daily News – The Attorney General's Office of Buenos Aires Province, in coordination with multiple judicial departments and police forces, launched a large-scale joint operation named 'Fake Coins' targeting fraudulent cryptocurrency investment schemes. Police conducted 90 simultaneous raids nationwide, resulting in the arrest of 24 suspects. The operation successfully intercepted and seized a total of 8 million USDT, valued at over $8 million, along with nearly 6 million pesos in cash and a large quantity of electronic devices.
Investigations revealed that the criminal group lured victims into investing through social media and fake apps, with the total losses involved amounting to nearly 3 billion pesos. Notably, the San Isidro judicial department seized the majority of the cryptocurrency assets during an investigation into a Chinese criminal group. This group was found to have developed malicious software to steal user information and launder money, with some of the funds being converted into USDT via Binance P2P transactions. (infobae)
