Carmona To Serve 121 Months In Jail For Crypto Fraud

According to the statement released, Carmona alongside other individuals
launched IcomTech in 2018 which was presented as a crypto mining and trading
company that helped investors earn profits by acquiring supposed
crypto-related investment• Экономика » Финансы » Инвестиции products.

Carmona and other promoters of IcomTech sold these fake investment• Экономика » Финансы » Инвестиции funds to
unsuspecting victims on which they guaranteed daily returns and promised to
double their capital within six months. It was noted that purchases were made
via cash, checks, transfers, and even cryptocurrencies• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта.

Each investor• Экономика » Финансы » Инвестиции » Инвестор was usually granted access to an online portal where they
monitor their supposed accruing gains. However, these victims always found
difficulty in withdrawing their profits or capital from the online platform
resulting in complaints that were appeased with excuses, delays, and hidden
charges for the few successful withdrawals. With increasing levels of
complaints and rising tensions, IcomTech began offering native digital coins
known as “Icoms” as compensation which they claimed would rise in value and
could be utilized as a medium of exchange for goods and services.

This initiative also proved false leading to the ultimate collapse of the
IcomTech Ponzi scheme.

Investigations by the US authorities soon revealed that Carmona and other
co-conspirators of IcomTech had sold fake crypto investment• Экономика » Финансы » Инвестиции products to
unsuspecting investors, funds from which were diverted to lure more victims
through flamboyant expositions as well as personal luxurious expenditure.

In December 2022, The US Attorney s Office, Southern District of New
York
announced an indictment against Carmona accusing him of conspiracy to
commit wire fraud to which he pled guilty . In October 2024, Judge Jennifer L.
Rochon issued a 121-month imprisonment sentence to the crypto fraudster which
will be followed by three years of supervised release.

Commenting on this development, US Attorney for the Southern District of New
York
, Damian Williams expressed much appreciation of Carmona’s prison sentence
saying:

Carmona’s days of scamming honest people are at an end, and he now faces
substantial time in prison.

Meanwhile, former CEO of IcomTech Marco Ruiz, Ochoa remains in jail following
a five-year sentence in January.
