Three Men Sentenced for £4m Crypto Fraud in UK

19時間前 ブローカーズビュー

Three men have been jailed in the UK for a £4 million cryptocurrency fraud that used fake police websites and impersonation calls to trick victims.

Anthony Ikenwe and Kevin Nwamma each received six years for fraud and five years concurrently for money laundering. Hamza Bashir was sentenced to three years and nine months for fraud and three years concurrently for money laundering.

The Metropolitan Police said the gang posed as officers, convincing at least eight victims to transfer crypto assets to fake law‑enforcement sites. The funds were then laundered through a complex wallet network.

Investigators traced luxury spending—including cars, designer goods and overseas trips—and recovered about £1 million in stolen assets. Another £500,000 in cash was found in a Dubai safety deposit box. Police are still working to trace remaining funds and identify other involved individuals.
