PANews 1月25日消息，据 India Today 报道，印度执法局逮捕了两名与 BitConnect 加密货币诈骗案有关的人员，该案涉及全球范围内的欺诈、绑架和勒索，涉案金额高达数千枚比特币和数千万卢比现金。被捕的 Nikunj Pravinbhai Bhatt 和 Sanjay Kotadia 涉嫌参与一宗绑架勒索案，受害人被迫交出 2254 枚比特币、1.1 万枚莱特币及约 14.5 亿卢比现金，部分被勒索的比特币被转换为 ETH 和 USDT 并通过多层钱包转移。印度执法局已冻结和查封包括加密资产、股票及现金在内约 19 亿卢比资产；截至目前，该案累计查封或冻结资产规模约 2170 亿卢比。目前调查仍在进行中。
印度执法局称，BitConnect 将自身标榜为高回报投资平台，声称其自主研发的波动率交易机器人每月可产生高达 40% 的回报。该机构表示，这些说法纯属虚构，旨在营造虚假的增长假象，包括在其网站上发布约 1% 的虚假每日回报率。
