US prosecutors have accused Vladimir Okhotnikov, also known as Lado, of running Forsage, which they say was a global Ponzi and pyramid scheme built on a fraudulent crypto investment platform. According to investigators, the scheme cheated investors out of at least $340 million between 2020 and 2022. A court in Georgia later found him guilty of laundering $1.1 million linked to the operation.
