DOJ công bố 3,8 triệu USD tài sản tiền điện tử bị phong tỏa trong chiến dịch chống gian lận toàn cầu

The Huoxing Finance report states that on June 4, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that, as part of the multinational anti-fraud operation codenamed "Disruption Week," in collaboration with Apple, Coinbase, Google, Meta, Microsoft, SpaceX, TRM Labs, and other companies, over $3.8 million in crypto assets linked to fraudulent activities were frozen. Coinbase stated that it alone froze crypto assets valued at over $3 million. The operation resulted in the closure of more than 1.4 million accounts, the deactivation of thousands of Starlink devices, and the cumulative arrest of 63 suspects. Thai police arrested seven fraudsters during the operation. The U.S. Department of Justice said the operation also dismantled multiple fraud servers and hosting infrastructures located in Southeast Asia, with the criminal networks primarily active in areas along the borders of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand. According to FBI data, losses suffered by U.S. citizens due to cryptocurrency investment scams increased by 24% in 2025 compared to the previous year, exceeding $7.2 billion—higher than $5.8 billion in 2024 and $3.96 billion in 2023. The U.S. Department of Justice stated that fraud groups typically recruit individuals under the guise of high-paying jobs and then force them to carry out scams targeting victims in the United States and other countries.
