Singapore – Malone Lam, Singapurense, arrested and charged by one of the largest robberies in the United States, waste up to US $ 500,000 (S $ 665,000) per night in clubs and bought more than 30 luxury cars, including a Pagani huayra for US $ 3.8 million and personalized lamborghinis.

The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) said that the 20 -year -old and coacusado, the American Jeandiel Serrano, 21, was arrested in September 2024 and accused of “conspiracy to steal and wash US $ 230 million in cryptocurrency of a victim in Washington, DC ”.

At today’s prices, 4,100 Bitcoin stolen are worth more than US $ 450 million.

At his last judicial hearing last week, Lam appeared in a green prison monkey in a Washington court where his trial date set for October 6.

In the short time between the robbery and his arrest, Lam and Serrano did not waste the time to live it in their alleged loot obtained.

The management of Los Angeles nightclubs (La) told researchers that LAM “was spending approximately US $ 400,000-US $ 500,000 per night” in its facilities. A receipt from a Los Angeles club showed that LAM allegedly spent US $ 569,528.39 on one night. The invoice included US $ 38,500 for 55 bottles of goose vodka, US $ 72,000 for 48 As of Spade Brut champagne and US $ 300 for five Red Bull cubes.

There were also purchases of more than 30 luxury cars, including personalized Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Porsches billionaire, and high -end watches. At the time of his arrest, Serrano wore a US $ 500,000 clock, American prosecutors said. Lam, which used online management “Anne Hathaway” and “$$”, also bought a clock for US $ 2 million, and a Lamborghini scrambled for more than US $ 1 million.

The videos of the social networks that became viral showed Lam in nightclubs, giving Birkin’s bags to models and influential models.

The remarkable life of Lam and Serrano not only caught the attention of the authorities but also the attention of the kidnappers who attacked Lam’s parents. A CNBC report that linked the trigger attempt of August 2024 for LAM said it involved a couple in a Lamborghini who, according to them, his son rented. The kidnapping was failed when the escape truck crashed and the attackers fled on foot. The six involved were subsequently arrested.

Lam arrived in the United States in October 2023 with a 90 -day tourist visa. He stayed longer, and later flew in a private jet from Los Angeles to Miami, where he was arrested in September 2024 and accused in the United States District Court for the South District of Florida and the Central District of California.

The accusation said that on August 18, 2024, Lam, Serrano and his conspirators contacted a victim in Washington and, through their communications with that victim, they obtained fraudulently more than 4,100 Bitcoin. The couple is accused of moving the funds through “several mixers and exchanges using ‘pelar chains’, passage wallets and virtual private networks to mask their true identities.”

Supposedly the earnings of cryptocurrencies washed in international trips, nightclubs, luxury cars, watches, jewelry, designer bags and rental houses in Los Angeles and Miami, said the Department of Justice.

Prosecutors said LAM “admitted to having bought 31 luxury cars, 22 of which have not yet been recovered by the police.” “Many of Lam vehicles have not yet been located, as their Pagani Huayra that bought for US $ 3,800,000,” they added.

As in October 2024Around US $ 70 million have recovered or frozen in several exchanges. “Even taking into account the millions of dollars that Serrano and their conspirators spent on cars and jewels, more than US $ 100,000,000 have no account,” CNBC said, citing judicial presentations.

Serrano had about US $ 20 million from the victim’s stolen bitcoin on his phone, and agreed to transfer those funds to the Federal Research Office.

If you are guilty of the theft of the more than 4,100 bitcoins, LAM faces up to 20 years in prison, a fine of up to US $ 250,000, or twice the amount of its scam earnings. Business times
