Techub News reported, according to Ming Pao, a man carried HK$2 million to a money exchange shop in Tsim Sha Tsui intending to exchange it for USDT. As requested by the shop, he handed the cash to two youths inside the shop, who then placed it in a safe. Subsequently, the shop owner discovered the cash was missing. When confronting the two youths, it was revealed that the safe had a passage leading to a neighboring shop. The two youths attempted to escape through the passage but failed and were ultimately arrested. The two youths later admitted to fraud and were sentenced to a training center yesterday at the District Court. The judge noted that the two defendants were not the masterminds but were indispensable "pawns" in the involved scam.
Techub News, according to Bloomberg, U.S. prosecutors have charged a Canadian citizen, Nathan Gauvin, with orchestrating a fraudulent scheme that raised over $42 million through false advertising, targeting individual users on the chat application Discord platform, while claiming to invest the funds in traditional finance and cryptocurrency sectors. He used most of the money for investor withdrawals, purchasing luxury jewelry, and paying credit card bills, and also obtained $800,000 in credit from a fintech company through fraud for personal expenses. From May 2022 to October 2024, Gauvin and others lured investors to invest in Gray Digital Capital Management Inc. and its fund, Gray Fund, claiming to offer clients an opportunity to invest in a fund blending TradFi and DeFi. He misrepresented his qualifications, the company's asset performance, presented falsified account statements, and once claimed that Gray Fund achieved a return rate of 4384%. Authorities arrested Gauvin in the UK on Wednesday, and it is currently not possible to immediately identify his private attorney. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has also filed similar securities fraud charges, alleging that Gauvin lied to and submitted false documents to the regulator when the investigation began.
