Washington: America’s central investigative agency FBI has updated its top most wanted list. The FBI has included Ruja Ignatova in this list. Ruja Ignatova, popularly known as CryptoQueen, is accused of cheating 32 thousand crores in the name of investment in cryptocurrencies. Ruja Ignotova is originally from Bulgaria. She was a doctor by profession. Seeing the increasing value of bitcoin, he launched a cryptocurrency named OneCoin.
He had launched a pyramid scheme named One Coin Limited. Ingatova claimed that her cryptocurrency would give even more advantages than bitcoin. Ruja’s company used to pay commissions for adding new members to buy his worthless cryptocurrencies. Top federal prosecutor Damian Williams said Ruza launched her scheme at a good time. At that time there was a lot of speculation about crypto currency.

Williams further said, ‘Ruja has been absconding since 2017. She had come to know that her boyfriend was helping the FBI. From Bulgaria he took a plane to Greece. He was never seen again after boarding that plane. According to Williams, OneCoin is one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in history. The FBI has announced a reward of one lakh dollars (approximately Rs 78.9 lakh) to anyone providing information about Ruza.
