U.S., U.K., and Canada Launch Operation Atlantic to Crack Down on Crypto Scams
U.S., U.K., and Canadian law enforcement agencies have launched Operation Atlantic, a coordinated effort to combat crypto-related scams and fraud networks. The operation involves agencies including the U.S. Secret Service, the U.K. National Crime Agency, and Canada’s Ontario Provincial Police, among others. Its primary goals are to disrupt organized fraud, recover stolen funds, protect victims from further losses, and raise public awareness of crypto investment scams. The initiative specifically targets "approval phishing" and "pig butchering" schemes, which have cost victims millions. Operation Atlantic builds on the earlier Project Atlas, expanding cross-border enforcement with more international partners to strengthen accountability in the digital asset sector.
