欺诈者被勒令为外汇和数字资产诈骗支付 3600 万美元

联邦法院命令纽约居民 William Koo Ichioka 因参与外汇和数字资产欺诈计划支付超过 3600 万美元

William Koo Ichioka, a New York resident, has been ordered by a federal court to pay over $36 million for his role in a forex and digital asset fraud scheme, according to an announcement made on Friday by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The regulator stated:

根据商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 周五发布的公告，纽约居民 William Koo Ichioka 因参与外汇和数字资产欺诈计划而被联邦法院勒令支付超过 3600 万美元。监管机构表示：

The order mandates that Ichioka pay $31 million in restitution to defrauded victims and a $5 million civil monetary penalty in connection with his fraudulent foreign currency (forex) and digital asset fraud scheme.

该命令要求 Ichioka 向诈骗受害者支付 3100 万美元的赔偿，并就其外币和数字资产欺诈计划支付 500 万美元的民事罚款。

This ruling comes after Ichioka admitted to defrauding investors by fabricating financial documents and making false promises regarding investment returns in digital assets.

这一裁决是在 Ichioka 承认通过伪造财务文件并对数字资产投资回报做出虚假承诺来欺骗投资者之后作出的。

In addition to the financial penalties, Ichioka received a 48-month prison sentence for related criminal charges, including commodities fraud and wire fraud.

除了经济处罚外，Ichioka 还因商品欺诈和电信欺诈等相关刑事指控被判处 48 个月监禁。

Ichioka's scheme, which began in 2018, involved misleading investors by promising a guaranteed 10% return every 30 business days. While some of the funds were invested in forex and digital asset commodities, Ichioka personally misappropriated the majority of the participant money.

Ichioka 的计划始于 2018 年，该计划承诺每 30 个工作日保证 10% 的回报，从而误导投资者。虽然部分资金投资于外汇和数字资产商品，但市冈个人挪用了大部分参与者资金。

The CFTC noted:

美国商品期货交易委员会指出：

Although Ichioka invested some funds in forex and digital asset commodities, he commingled participant money with his own funds and used participant funds for his own personal expenses, including, among other things, rent for his personal residence, jewelry, including watches, and luxury vehicles.

尽管市冈将部分资金投资于外汇和数字资产商品，但他将参与者的资金与自己的资金混合在一起，并将参与者的资金用于自己的个人开支，其中包括个人住宅的租金、珠宝（包括手表）和豪华车辆。

To sustain the fraud, he overstated the value of his investments through false account statements and other financial documents.

为了维持欺诈，他通过虚假账户报表和其他财务文件夸大了自己的投资价值。
