An Ohio man will be getting 20 years in prison for carrying out a cryptocurrency scam. Michael Ackerman has pleaded guilty to the crime and might be spending a long time in prison. According to the US Justice Department, the man pleaded guilty to the multi-million dollar cryptocurrency scam last week.<\/p>\n

A Cryptocurrency Scam Worth Of Millions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Michael Ackerman planned and executed a cryptocurrency scam in 2017. This scheme promised to pay investors 15% on their investments every month. Even though the benefits were too dubious and impossible, many investors rushed in to utilize the opportunity.<\/p>\n

The scam was called the “Q3 Trading Club,” a fund that used investor’s money to make the supposed profits to be shared as returns.<\/p>\n

On September 8, 2021, a US attorney, Audrey Strauss from the New York Southern District, announced<\/a> that Ackerman had pleaded guilty to the charges. According to Strauss, the man agreed to have caused the victims to lose above $30 million in cryptocurrency assets.<\/p>\n

In the announcement, the attorney stressed that Arkerman agreed to have used his fake crypto scheme to steal millions from investors with the promise of 15% monthly returns.<\/p>\n

In addition, Strauss also disclosed that Michael Ackerman used fake documents to deceive the investors. His balances showed more than $315 million in the fund. But the reality was just a little above $5 million from the DoJ\u2019s discoveries.<\/p>\n

The attorney also revealed that Ackerman stole investors\u2019 money amounting to $9 million just to continue his lavish lifestyle. The man spent a lot of money on vehicles, real estate, personal security, traveling, and jewelry.<\/p>\n

Michael Ackerman Agrees To Pay <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The announcement also stated that Michael Ackerman has pleaded guilty to wire fraud. He agreed to pay back $30 million and forfeit at least $36 million in real estate, jewelry, cash which he acquired fraudulently. As for now, the sentencing will take place on January 5th<\/sup>, 2022.<\/p>\n

The first charges came from the SEC in 2020. The crime was the violation of securities laws by Michael Ackerman.<\/p>\n

The reports then showed that he used a private group that he created on Facebook to target physicians. The group was called “Physicians Dad’s Group,” and the SEC discovered his fraudulent intent.<\/p>\n

Michael Ackerman has never worked as an institutional broker in the New York Stock Exchange. Instead, he was operating as one of three scammers, including James, a Wells Fargo financial advisor, and another member, a surgeon called Quan Tran. In 2020 April, the victims of the incident sued Fargo for not investigating its employee.<\/p>\n
