币界网报道:According to the news on July 1st, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) accused Tushal Rathod, a man from New York, of making a profit of $1.7 million through fraudulent fraud of forged checks and business email leaks, and converted most of the illegal proceeds into Bitcoin. His alleged crimes occurred between November 2021 and June 2024. FBI agent Samuel Morgan said that Rathod received funds through seven accounts at six financial institutions and sent $1.2 million worth of Bitcoin to external addresses. At least three banks had warned him that the source of his funds was illegal, but he forged invoices to cover it up. After the police intervened, he refused to cooperate with the investigation. Court documents show that Rathod also "recruited" his girlfriend and family to assist in the fraud. His girlfriend and family deposited more than $1 million in fraudulent funds into their accounts, and Citibank recovered $800,000. In February 2023, he purchased $900,000 worth of Bitcoin and transferred it away. If convicted, Rathod will face 20 years in prison.
