Gilbert Armenta - the ex-lover of Ruja Ignatova - will spent five years in jail for money laundering $300 million drained from OneCoin investors.
Cryptoqueen’s Ex-Boyfriend Sent to Prison for 5 Years Gilbert Armenta – the ex-lover of Ruja Ignatova – will spent five years in jail for money laundering $300 million drained from OneCoin investors.
The Bulgarian-born Ignatova – the Founder of the infamous Ponzi scheme – sits on the FBI’s ten most-wanted list. She was last seen in 2017 in Greece, while some sources hinted she could have been killed., the Southern District of New York Courthouse sentenced Armenta to five years in federal prison for laundering $300 million in proceeds generated from the OneCoin scam.
Armenta’s lawyer claimed his client was not a violent person, adding that his problems came from the misfortune of entering into a “romantic relationship” with the “Cryptoqueen.” She presumably “drilled into his apartment and hired a couple to live next to him and surveil him.” Armenta also bought a bank in Georgia, where Ignatova was already a customer.
Alongside their purchase, people also received OneCoin tokens that could be exchanged for fiat on a specially designed internal marketplace. The venue had daily selling limits based on the type of package each investor had chosen, controlling the number of coins that could be swapped.
