Law enforcement conducted ten raids on the offices of the 'Federation East' cryptocurrency exchange network in Moscow City, temporarily closing all exchange points. The raids were prompted by an investigation into fraud, where Vladimir R. lost 144 million rubles. Preliminary information suggests that the man was scammed by fake FSB employees who convinced him to transfer the money, which then passed through one of the cryptocurrency exchanges. Dozens of network employees were detained, and a Moscow court has already imposed a measure of restraint on eight of them.
