布巴内斯瓦尔，4 月 16 日：奥里萨邦警察经济犯罪部门 (EOW) 逮捕了两名人员，Ved Prakash 和 Sudhir Patel，他们实施了一项欺诈计划，以奥里萨邦和马哈拉施特拉邦的投资者为目标，通过加密货币投资的高回报来引诱他们。

According to EOW sleuths, prime accused Ved Prakash, a former constable in the Rajasthan Police, was apprehended on April 10 from Anupgarh, Rajasthan. Prakash had been dismissed from service after five years due to misconduct and dereliction of duty.

据 EOW 侦探称，主要被告韦德·普拉卡什 (Ved Prakash) 是拉贾斯坦邦警察局的一名前警员，于 4 月 10 日在拉贾斯坦邦阿努普加尔被捕。普拉卡什在五年后因不当行为和玩忽职守而被解雇。

Sudhir Patel, the Odisha-based head of the operation, was arrested on April 14 in Sundargarh, Odisha.

奥里萨邦行动负责人苏迪尔·帕特尔 (Sudhir Patel) 于 4 月 14 日在奥里萨邦 Sundargarh 被捕。

The arrests stem from a complaint filed by Prem Sagar Khamari, a victim who lost over Rs 48 lakhs in the fraudulent scheme. Khamari received a mere Rs 20,000 against his investment.

这次逮捕源于 Prem Sagar Khamari 提出的投诉，他是该欺诈计划中损失超过 480 万卢比的受害者。卡马里的投资仅获得 20,000 卢比。

Khamari's complaint alleges that the accused lured investors, primarily in western Odisha, into investing in various crypto schemes, including ENG Crypto, Entice Capital, USDT Club, ADS Exchange, and CRIT 11, promising high returns and even doubling their investments. However, the accused neither invested in cryptocurrency nor returned the funds to the victims.

Khamari 的投诉称，被告诱骗投资者（主要是西奥里萨邦）投资各种加密货币计划，包括 ENG Crypto、Entice Capital、USDT Club、ADS Exchange 和 CRIT 11，承诺高回报，甚至将投资增加一倍。然而，被告既没有投资加密货币，也没有将资金退还给受害者。

EOW sources revealed that in 2022, the accused and their associates conducted promotional events in various parts of Odisha. They targeted victims, many of whom were unfamiliar with computers, with misleading brochures and leaflets, promising quick and substantial returns on cryptocurrency investments. Victims were also incentivized to attract more investors.

EOW 消息人士透露，2022 年，被告及其同伙在奥里萨邦各地开展了促销活动。他们以误导性的小册子和传单为目标，其中许多人不熟悉计算机，并承诺通过加密货币投资获得快速而丰厚的回报。受害者还受到激励来吸引更多投资者。

The fraudsters used the funds collected from new investors to pay promised returns to existing investors, a scheme known as a Ponzi scheme. The EOW estimates that the duo defrauded approximately 500 investors in Odisha, amounting to over Rs 15 crore. The accused also victimized several individuals in Maharashtra.

诈骗者利用从新投资者那里收集的资金向现有投资者支付承诺的回报，这种骗局被称为庞氏骗局。 EOW 估计，这两人诈骗了奥里萨邦约 500 名投资者，金额超过 1.5 亿卢比。被告还在马哈拉施特拉邦伤害了数人。

The EOW has stated that the Maharashtra Police will be informed about the scam and the perpetrators. On Monday, Prakash and Patel were presented before the designated court under the Orissa Protection of Interests of Depositors (OPID) Act, Cuttack.

EOW 表示，将向马哈拉施特拉邦警方通报该骗局和肇事者。周一，普拉卡什和帕特尔根据《奥里萨邦储户利益保护法》(OPID) 向克塔克指定法院出庭。

The incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks associated with cryptocurrency investments and the importance of due diligence before investing. Investors are urged to exercise caution and thoroughly research the credentials of investment platforms and individuals offering high-yield returns.

该事件清楚地提醒人们，加密货币投资存在风险，以及投资前尽职调查的重要性。请投资者谨慎行事，并彻底研究提供高收益回报的投资平台和个人的资质。
