HaruInvest, suspected of fraudulently obtaining $1 billion, only had $36 million in virtual assets seized.


On June 27, according to Digital Asset, prosecutors in South Korea stated that about 50 billion Korean won (approximately US$36 million) worth of virtual assets have been successfully seized from the digital asset management platform HaruInvest during a fraud trial in a southern Seoul court. Previously, HaruInvest revealed in court that its client crypto custodian B&S suffered losses of up to 400 billion Korean won due to the FTX collapse in November 2022. In June last year, HaruInvest executives were accused of defrauding investors of over 1.4 trillion Korean won (approximately US$1 billion) in cryptocurrency. The company's CEO, HugoLee, was arrested in February this year.
