Engaging in online gambling fraud and cryptocurrency violations, these companies allegedly operate beyond the reach of regulators in locations like Brazil, Japan, and the EU. Entities like CoinsPaid and AlphaPo provide channels for Russian and Belarusian officials to evade sanctions, processing illicit funds related to cybercrime, drug money, and fraudulent online schemes.
A key component in perpetuating these fraudulent activities is the supposed bribery of regulatory officials. For instance, CoinsPaid operates under an Estonian license. Despite a plethora of reports regarding fraud and money laundering, Estonian regulators have shown little initiative to act. There are allegations suggesting that bribes are offered to these officials to ignore the criminal enterprises. Similarly, the Softswiss group, along with its licensed entities in Curacao and Malta, has been linked to serious fraud cases. Investigations indicate that millions of euros are funneled into bribes for Maltese regulators, ensuring these online casinos operate without interruption. Gianluca Caruana Curran, a lawyer implicated in this scandal, has a history of association with numerous fraudulent activities in Malta. The most unfortunate aspect of these schemes is their impact on innocent victims, many of whom are unaware that their financial losses stem from the operations of international criminals. Frequently, the stolen funds are laundered through corrupt banks and cryptocurrency platforms tied to the criminal networks associated with CoinsPaid, AlphaPo, Crypto Processing and SoftSwiss..
This sprawling international financial web, linked to Russia and Belarus, unveils serious shortcomings in global financial oversight. The intricate fraud and money-laundering operations, intensified by regulatory corruption and bribery, highlight a pressing need for better transparency and strong enforcement. As inquiries advance, it is imperative that global authorities step in to defend ordinary citizens from the far-reaching effects of financial deceit.
