Cryptocurrency fraud scheme: National Police investigates case involving transfer of $20 million to Ukrainian accounts

The Main Investigation Department of the National Police of Ukraine is conducting a pre-trial investigation in criminal proceedings No. 12025000000001617 under Part 5 of Article 190 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (fraud on an especially large scale).

The case was opened after Polish law enforcement received information about the activities of an organized crime group that was engaged in financial fraud using fake investment schemes.

Through international cooperation, Polish investigators have discovered that over $20 million in cryptocurrency was transferred to 14 accounts on the OKX service. These accounts are registered to Ukrainian citizens.

The investigation is ongoing, law enforcement officers are checking all the circumstances of the case, possible participants and ways of money laundering. The National Police emphasize that cryptocurrency transactions are increasingly being used by fraudsters to cash in illegal proceeds, which requires active international cooperation between law enforcement agencies.

The further results of the case will depend on the joint actions of Ukrainian and Polish investigators, as well as the position of international crypto exchanges through which the transactions were carried out.
