According to CoinMeta, the Virtual Currency Department of the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office, in conjunction with the FBI New York office, shut down 241 fraudulent domain names and 112 servers on October 14. This network was involved in cross-border fraud over a period of three years, with servers located in Eastern Europe and the United States. The fraud mainly targeted Russian-speaking communities, involving false investments and secondary scams, resulting in losses of tens of millions of dollars. The prosecution has so far recovered approximately 300,000 dollars for the victims, and no one has been arrested yet. Data from the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center shows that Americans lost 11.366 billion dollars due to crypto fraud in 2025.
