TechFlow reports on September 29, according to Bitcoin.com News, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced it has filed a civil lawsuit against defendants Aipu Ltd., Qian Bai, Lan Bai, Fidefx Investments Ltd., and Chao Li in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. The CFTC alleges that these defendants operated a fraudulent trading platform and deceitfully obtained approximately $3.6 million from at least 32 customers, primarily targeting Asian Americans. The scam involved fiat currency and digital assets, with false promises of engaging in commodity futures and foreign exchange contracts, while actually transferring funds overseas. The CFTC is seeking restitution, disgorgement of illicit gains, civil monetary penalties, and a permanent injunction against further violations.
