Brazilian man extradited to the United States for trial for participating in a $290 million cryptocurrency fraud scheme
Techub News reported that according to the official website of the U.S. Department of Justice, Brazilian man Douver T. Braga was extradited from Switzerland to the United States and appeared in the federal court in Seattle, accused of being involved in a $290 million BTCPonzi Scheme. The indictment stated that Braga conspired with others to create a cryptocurrency trading platform called Trade Coin Club (TCC) and began promoting TCC in 2016. By making false promises of complex investments and high returns, Braga induced tens of thousands of people to entrust over 82,000 BTC (worth over $290 million at the time of investment) to TCC for custody. Between December 2016 and July 2019, Braga diverted at least $50 million worth of BTC into his controlled account. He is charged with 12 counts of wire fraud and 1 count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, with a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. Braga did not plead guilty, and the trial is scheduled for April 28, 2025.
