17 agosto (Reuters) - Un uomo della Georgia è stato espulso dalle Figi per rispondere delle accuse nel suo Stato di residenza, dove è accusato di aver truffato oltre 6.000 investitori e causato perdite per oltre 165 milioni di dollari in uno schema Ponzi legato alle criptovalute, ha dichiarato lunedì il procuratore federale di Atlanta.

Edward Zimbardi, 59 anni, di Flowery Branch, in Georgia, è stato incriminato con 12 capi d’accusa di frode telematica, 12 capi d’accusa di riciclaggio di denaro e un capo d’accusa di associazione a delinquere finalizzata al riciclaggio.

• Secondo i pubblici ministeri, Zimbardi avrebbe presentato «The Crypto Program» come un mezzo per acquistare pacchetti pubblicitari online, offrendo un tasso di rendimento mensile garantito del 25% su un investimento iniziale di 550 dollari.

• Anziché acquistare pacchetti pubblicitari, Zimbardi avrebbe perso decine di milioni di dollari scommettendo su valute estere, avrebbe speso almeno 10 milioni di dollari in spese personali — tra cui una casa per uno dei suoi figli e il pagamento degli alimenti — e avrebbe utilizzato nuovi fondi per rimborsare gli investitori precedenti.

• Secondo i pubblici ministeri, la presunta truffa sarebbe durata da giugno 2022 ad agosto 2023.
