Woofun AI reports that the U.S. Department of Justice seized over $25 million in cryptocurrency connected to an international investment fraud network. The operation, conducted by the District of Columbia Attorney’s Office and the Secret Service, targets scams involving fake crypto platforms and romance schemes. Five civil forfeiture lawsuits were filed on July 21, 2026, to secure these assets, which were concealed using layered wallets and mixing services. This action falls under the "Scam Center Strike Force," which has recovered more than $800 million in total assets since its 2025 launch.
