Hong Kong's JPEX Crypto Exchange Scandal: Masterminds Still on the Run Despite 11 Questioned

Despite 11 people being questioned in relation to the alleged crypto exchange scandal at Hong Kong's JPEX, the masterminds behind the largest financial fraud to hit the city have yet to be caught. Over 2,265 complaints have been received from victims of the exchange, with an estimated total monetary value of $178 million. The complaints appear to be related to difficulties withdrawing cryptocurrency from the platform, with the exchange raising its withdrawal fees to 999 USDT. The investigation is ongoing and further arrests are likely, with Interpol and other international enforcement agencies enlisted to help.
