休斯顿联邦调查局 (FBI) 负责人助理特工阿曼达·卡尔弗 (Amanda Culver) 称 ICHCoin 既是“阴谋”又是“骗局”。
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The FBI is searching for additional victims of a fraudulent cryptocurrency platform that has taken millions of dollars from people across the U.S.
德克萨斯州休斯顿 (KTRK)——联邦调查局正在寻找一个欺诈性加密货币平台的更多受害者,该平台已从美国各地的人们手中骗取了数百万美元
FBI Houston's Assistant Special Agent in Charge Amanda Culver called ICHCoin both a "scheme" and a "scam."
休斯顿联邦调查局 (FBI) 负责人助理特工阿曼达·卡尔弗 (Amanda Culver) 称 ICHCoin 既是“阴谋”又是“骗局”。
She said it starts with someone reaching out to the victims on social media, including Instagram or Facebook, and asking if the recipient wants to learn more about investing in cryptocurrency. She said the profiles reaching out are fake. The victims are then directed to WhatsApp to communicate with individuals claiming to teach them.
她说,首先有人在社交媒体上联系受害者,包括 Instagram 或 Facebook,并询问收件人是否想了解更多有关投资加密货币的信息。她说,联系的个人资料是假的。然后,受害者会被引导至 WhatsApp,与自称教过他们的人进行交流。
From there, Culver said that people are urged to lie to their banks about the large wire transfer from the account to ICHCoin.
卡尔弗表示,人们被敦促就从账户到 ICHCoin 的大额电汇向银行撒谎。
According to the FBI, the victims can track the return on their investments on an ICHCoin app, but ultimately, there is no return on the investment.
据 FBI 称,受害者可以在 ICHCoin 应用程序上追踪其投资回报,但最终投资没有回报。
Culver said when the victims try to collect their money from the platform, they are ghosted and cannot get their money back.
卡尔弗说,当受害者试图从该平台收钱时,他们就像幽灵一样,无法拿回钱。
Throughout the investigation, the FBI found people who had lost their entire life savings on the fraudulent platform.
在整个调查过程中,联邦调查局发现有人在该欺诈平台上损失了全部毕生积蓄。
"The average person could certainly be fooled by this scam," Culver said.
“普通人肯定会被这个骗局愚弄,”卡尔弗说。
ABC13 asked Culver if the person or persons behind it were in the U.S. or abroad, and she said they were working to find out.
ABC13 询问卡尔弗幕后黑手是否在美国或国外,她表示他们正在努力查明真相。
"I think it's important for people to know that any time you receive unsolicited messages from people asking you to invest, promising high rates of return on your investment, telling you that they're going to give you free money for you to invest, anything along those lines, those are red flags," Culver explained. "We want to make sure the word is out there that these fake platforms exist."
“我认为让人们知道这一点很重要:每当你收到人们主动发来的信息,要求你投资,承诺高投资回报率,告诉你他们将给你免费的钱让你投资,任何事情沿着这些思路,这些都是危险信号,”卡尔弗解释道。 “我们希望确保这些虚假平台的存在。”
Since December 2023, the FBI has found that approximately $30 million in the U.S. has been lost to the platform.
自2023年12月以来,FBI发现该平台在美国损失了约3000万美元。
"It is extremely easy to use these platforms to bamboozle people," Culver said. "It's a whole new world for folks. People are very interested in investing in cryptocurrency, and crypto is one of those platforms on which folks recognize that there can be a return on investment. The concern is that homework needs to be done."
“利用这些平台来欺骗人们是非常容易的,”卡尔弗说。 “这对人们来说是一个全新的世界。人们对投资加密货币非常感兴趣,而加密货币是人们认识到可以获得投资回报的平台之一。令人担忧的是需要完成作业。”
They have already identified victims of ICHCoin in Houston but are looking to hear more from them.
他们已经确定了休斯顿 ICHCoin 的受害者,但希望听到他们的更多消息。
Anyone who believes they have fallen victim can answer the questionnaire on the FBI's website.
任何认为自己已成为受害者的人都可以回答联邦调查局网站上的调查问卷。
