Teen Accused Of $13M Crypto Scam That Funded Miami Luxury

A Canadian teenager, Trenton Richard David Johnston, is accused of running a cryptocurrency fraud scheme from the Miami area, allegedly causing over $13 million in losses. The 19-year-old and unnamed co-conspirators are charged with posing as support representatives from a major search engine and crypto companies to gain access to victims' digital accounts and crypto wallets. He was indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering. Prosecutors allege that Johnston, along with co-defendant Brandon Michael Tardibone, laundered more than $1 million of the illicit funds to finance luxury vehicles, high-end jewelry, and an extravagant nightlife. Tardibone is additionally charged with harboring Johnston, who had overstayed his visa. Both defendants face up to 20 years in prison if convicted. The case is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida.
