04/08/2024 – On the morning of Sunday (4), civil police officers from the 123rd Police Station (DP) of Macaé, arrested a 41-year-old man who had an outstanding arrest warrant for the crime of embezzlement. In 2022, the suspect’s company signed several contracts for the sale of digital assets, mainly cryptocurrencies, in Macaé. The deals promised investors a monthly return of 10% on the capital invested, with values ranging between R$ 5,000 and R$ 2 million. However, during the term of the contracts, investors did not receive the promised profits. Those responsible for the scheme tried to deceive the victims with the false promise that another company would take responsibility for the contracts, which never happened. At the beginning of the investigations, it was discovered that the company’s legal representatives fled the city with more than R$ 9 million, resulting from fraudulent negotiations.
