Ukrainian authorities have arrested a member of an international cybercrime organization who is wanted by the U.S. FBI for fraud and money laundering. The related crimes have caused losses exceeding $100 million in the United States and Europe. The suspect had forged a death certificate and used a false identity to live in Ukraine, laundering money through real estate transactions. During the investigation, authorities confiscated assets worth approximately $11 million, including about $3 million in cryptocurrency, as well as cash, real estate, and vehicles. The criminal group previously used malware to steal personal and corporate data and conduct extortion. (Cointelegraph)
