Abstract generation in progress
CryptoWorld News reports that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed a lawsuit against Texas resident Nathan Fuller, accusing him of operating a cryptocurrency investment scheme under the names Privvy Investments and others, raising approximately $12.3 million from about 150 investors. The SEC states that Fuller falsely claimed he would use an AI-based high-frequency arbitrage trading robot to trade cryptocurrencies and promised investors returns of over 40% to 100% within 21 to 45 days. The SEC alleges that he misappropriated at least $6.2 million of investor funds for personal expenses, used about $5.5 million to pay returns in a Ponzi-like scheme, and concealed the use of funds through fake account statements and forged documents. Currently, the SEC has filed a lawsuit for violations of securities issuance and anti-fraud provisions, seeking to recover illegal gains and civil penalties.

Texas buddy is climbing the ranks again, and the SEC lawsuit list is almost reaching fifty states.

Faking reports is too old-fashioned; once you check on-chain data, everything is laid bare.

When promising a 100% return, you should think about who really is that 100%

$12.3 million, 150 people, an average of $80,000 per person—the “leeks are too concentrated” (too many targets are getting harvested), way over the limit.
