币界网报道:According to Cointelegraph on June 5, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) won a $1.1 million court victory in a crypto fraud case in which the defendant did not respond to the allegations. A federal court judge in Georgia made a default judgment in the case, supporting the SEC's lawsuit against Keith Crews. The SEC sued Crews in August 2023, accusing him of participating in cryptocurrency fraud, but Crews did not respond or defend himself. Judge Tiffany Johnson ruled that Crews must pay more than $1.1 million in financial penalties, including the return of $530,000 in net profits for his alleged misconduct, nearly $51,000 in prejudgment interest, and a civil penalty of $530,000. In addition, the judge also ruled that Crews was permanently prohibited from violating securities laws again.
