Gilbert Armenta

Gilbert Armenta er en amerikansk bank- og forretningsmand.[1] Han var kæreste med kryptovaluta-pyramidespillet OneCoins grundlægger Ruja Ignatova.[2] Armenta blev i 2023 idømt 5 års fængsel i USA.[3] Ifølge retsdokumenter hjalp han med at hvidvaske 300 millioner dollars i et af historiens største Ponzi-svindelnumre.[4] Det gjorde Gilbert Armenta blandt andet ved at købe en georgisk bank, hvor Ruja Ignatova allerede var kunde.[5] Han oprettede falske dokumenter for at skjule økonomiske transaktioners kriminelle karakter og oprindelse.[6] Armenta købte også dyre aktiver som et privat jetfly og adskillige luksusvillaer med indtægter fra OneCoin.[7]

OneCoin var et internationalt pyramidespil (Ponzisvindel) baseret på Multi-level marketing på flere milliarder dollar, der mellem 2014 og 2016 bedragede millioner af investorer verden over.[8]
