Dear Clients,
In the past week, several of our clients reported the following event. They failed to delete the API link on their Binance accounts (the accounts created for MyAqua crypto in 12/2019). The arbitrage bots on these accounts were activated for several hours and took a significant amount of deposited assets from clients’ wallets. We emphasize that this was conducted without the knowledge and permission of the owners of these accounts.
Attorney’s advice
If you did not delete the API from your Binance wallet, do so immediately, as you risk having your assets disappear.

We want to inform you about a well-known scam case, “One Coin,” and draw a comparison with the “Jubilee Ace/Jenco/GTR” case.
Last week BBC News published an article about one of the biggest crypto scams. You can read the whole article at the following link: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-62005066
Missing Cryptoqueen: FBI adds Ruja Ignatova to top ten most wanted

US authorities warned that Ruja Ignatova may have changed her appearance since going missing in 2017. Ruja Ignatova, also known as the “missing Cryptoqueen”, has been placed on the FBI’s top 10 most wanted list.
The Bulgarian woman, believed to be in her 40s, is wanted for her alleged role in running a cryptocurrency scam known as OneCoin. Federal investigators accuse the fugitive of using the scheme to defraud victims out of more than $4bn. She has been missing since 2017 when US officials signed an arrest warrant and investigators began closing in on her.
In 2014, OneCoin, a self-described cryptocurrency, began offering buyers commission if they sold the currency on to more people.
But FBI agents say OneCoin was worthless and was never safeguarded by the blockchain technology used by other cryptocurrencies. According to allegations made by federal prosecutors, it was essentially a Ponzi scheme disguised as a cryptocurrency.
A bureau notice published on Thursday offered a $100,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of Ms Ignatova, who was charged in 2019 with eight counts including wire fraud and securities fraud.
She is the only woman on the FBI’s 10 most wanted list.
FBI agents believe Ms Ignatova travels with armed guards or associates. Jamie Bartlett, whose BBC podcast investigation brought global attention to Ms Ignatova’s story and the financial impact OneCoin had on her alleged victims, said the FBI’s announcement on Thursday increased the chances of her being caught.
“This is probably the biggest development in the case since Dr Ruja disappeared in October 2017,” he said. Mr Bartlett, who has been investigating the case for years, said one of the reasons it had been so difficult to track down Ruja Ignatova is that she disappeared with at least $500m (£411m), helping her to hide from the law.

We estimate the founders and organizers of the Jubilee Group managed to collect a larger amount of money through their enterprise than Ms. Ruja Ignatova. This case is a contender to be the highest-ranked case on the FBI list.
By analyzing the “One Coin” case, we can conclude that in cases of such magnitude, the prosecution will persistently and thoroughly do their job and will not give up. Sooner or later, the case will be concluded, and the seized assets will be used to pay out the parties who have submitted their restitution claims.
To our knowledge, in the “One Coin” case, individual restitution claims have not been submitted, and there is a real possibility that when Ms. Ignatova is arrested, the injured parties may miss out on retrieving their assets. Therefore, every victim needs to follow up on the case and submit their individual restitution claim according to the rules and regulations of the local courts. If you are unsure how to proceed, contact our office for advice.

Sehr geehrte Mandaten
In den letzten Wochen haben mehrere Kunden das folgende Vorkommnis gemeldet. Sie haben den API-Link auf ihren Binance-Konten nicht gelöscht (dies sind die Konten, die für MyAqua crypto in 12/2019 erstellt wurden). Die Arbitrage Bots wurden für mehrere Stunden aktiviert und sie haben erhebliche Gelder aus ihren Wallets entfernt. Ich betone besonders, dass dies ohne das Wissen und die Zustimmung des Besitzers des Binance-Kontos geschah.
Rat eines Rechtsanwalts:
Wenn Sie die API auf Ihrer Binance-Brieftasche für MyAqua cypto noch nicht gelöscht haben, tun Sie es jetzt, denn Ihre Gelder könnten aus der Binance-Brieftasche verschwinden.
Nun möchte ich Ihre Aufmerksamkeit auf den bekannten Fall des „One Coin“-Betrugs lenken und einen Vergleich mit dem Fall von „Jubilee Ace/Jenco/Gtr. Anstellen“.
Vor sieben Tagen veröffentlichte BBC News den folgenden Artikel über einen der größten Krypto-Betrügereien der Welt. Sie können den gesamten Text unter dem Link https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-62005066. lesen.

Nach meinen Schätzungen haben die Gründer und Organisatoren dieses Betrugs eine größere Summe als Frau Ruja Ignatova kassiert. Der Fall „Jubile Ace/Jenco/Gtr“ hat eine reelle Chance, der erste Betrug auf der FBI-Liste zu sein.
Die Untersuchung des Falls „One Coin“ lässt den Schluss zu, dass die Staatsanwaltschaft in solch großen Fällen niemals aufgibt. Früher oder später wird der Fall abgeschlossen, und die gefundenen Gegenstände werden verwendet, um Geld von den Personen zurückzuerhalten, die ihre Ansprüche offiziell angemeldet haben.
Nach unserer Kenntnis wurden im „One Coin“-Fall keine individuellen Anträge auf Entschädigung gestellt, so dass es sein kann, dass Frau Ruja Ignatova verhaftet wird und die Geschädigten nicht entschädigt werden. Deshalb muss jeder Einzelne die Geschehnisse verfolgen und einen vermögensrechtlichen Anspruch auf Entschädigung nach den Regeln der örtlichen Gerichtsbarkeit stellen. Wenn Sie nicht sicher sind, wie Sie vorgehen sollen, kontaktieren Sie uns.
