DFPI — Victim narrative (California)
A California victim reports losing 5 BTC after having their funds locked on the now defunct crypto trading platform, Haru Invest at https://haruinvest.com/. Haru Invest held itself out as a digital asset management platform based on algorithmic trading strategies and claimed to offer 12% APR on invested crypto. However, in June 2023, Haru Invest terminated deposits and withdrawals on its platform. Executives of Haru Invest were later found to be engaged in a massive embezzlement scheme and were arrested by South Korean authorities in February 2024.
