Indian authorities have filed a primary charge sheet against 30 individuals accused of promoting OneCoin in the country.
Tushar Doshi, deputy commissioner of crime at Navi Mumbai police stated:

In this sort of scheme, investors become the perpetrators as well as victims. It is clear that this is a Ponzi scheme.

The sweeping operation, the charge sheet further revealed, had amassed over ₹75 crores (approximately $12 million) from investing victims. So far, authorities have seized ₹25 crores (just under $4 million) from bank accounts.

The lure for rich rewards was a one-time investment of ₹11,900 (approx. $185). Investors were told that the value of their OneCoins, which is purchased with that initial investment, is tied with the value of the Euro. A substantial payout was promised in December 2018.

Indian police are currently on the lookout for six OneCoin promoters tied to senior positions of the scheme, including its mastermind Rjua Ignatova.

Thank you so much

Investors don't understand that Onecoin is not a real cryptocurrency because it has no blockchain!

No, but it has a chain of blockheads...
