The DOJ has accused the CEO and co-founder of Mining Capital Coin of diverting funds into their own wallets instead of using the capital to generate investor returns from the supposed “biggest cryptocurrency mining operation in the world.”
The CEO and co-founder of crypto mining and investment platform Mining Capital Coin Luiz Capuci Jr. has been indicted by the Department of Justice for “allegedly orchestrating a $62 million global investment fraud scheme.”
As part of the mining packages, Capuci is said to have touted “substantial profits and guaranteed returns by using investors’ money to mine new cryptocurrency” but allegedly failed to deliver on the bargain: “As he did with the Mining Packages, however, Capuci allegedly operated an investment fraud scheme with the Trading Bots and was not, as he promised, using MCC Trading Bots to generate income for investors, but instead was diverting the funds to himself and co-conspirators,” the DOJ indictment reads.
