Spanish authorities have arrested five individuals linked to a cryptocurrency investment fraud scheme that laundered nearly $540 million from over 5,000 victims. The operation, supported by Europol and law enforcement agencies from Estonia, France, and the U.S., targeted a network using global associates to funnel illicit proceeds through cash withdrawals, bank transfers, and crypto wallets.

Raids in the Canary Islands and Madrid led to the detentions, with Europol deploying a crypto specialist to assist. The ringleaders allegedly established a corporate and banking network in Hong Kong, leveraging accounts under third-party names to obscure fund flows.
