Police issue warrant for ‘Bitcoin billionaire’ over $50k bond scam 

Bitcoin to print a new ATH in the coming 2-3 weeks, following in gold's footsteps: Analyst


An arrest warrant was issued for Kevin Segal, a self -proclaimed “billionaire” billionaire “who did not appear for an audience after a friend filed for $ 50,000.

Prosecutors accuse Segal of having defrauded Wyoming companies on more than $ 212,000. The 30 -year -old California resident risks up to 141 years in prison if he is found guilty.

According to a report of The Daily MailSegal pretended to be a rich businessman trying to buy millions in real estate in the Jackson Hole region while leaving a trace of unpaid invoices in luxury stations and businesses.

Judge Bill Simpson issued a bench mandate in the 50 states after Segal jumped his appearance before the court on Wednesday and did not abandon his passport as ordered.

Jason Irvine, who posted Segal’s link, told Cowboy State Daily that he had maximum three credit cards to help what he thought was a friend in need. Irvine said that Segal had promised her “a big Bitcoin payment that is equivalent to half a million dollars” in exchange for the publication of the deposit but disappeared after being released from prison on February 14.

“He explained the situation and essentially refused all the written charges in the newspaper,” said Irvine. “”[He] said it was defamation and slander; And he did not intend to defraud anyone. He was locked up in prison, and [said] This is why he could not reimburse anyone.

After being betrayed, Irvine sent an SMS to Segal: “You have screwed me up, and now I really don’t believe anything you say. Irvine now envisages bankruptcy due to financial damage.

Investigators discovered a model of fraudulent activities throughout Wyoming. Segal would have remained at the luxurious Amanmani Resort with his mother and a friend, leaving a ticket of $ 2,725.76 unpaid.

In Spring Creek Ranch, three cards he used for invoices totaling more than $ 22,000 would have been fraudulent. It was also reported that he had left the Galent Moisson show with an unpaid tab of $ 3,055.28.

The alleged scams also extend to individuals. The prosecutors say that Segal hired a man to buy a DJI drone in Colorado with a repayment promise, then wrote a check for $ 3,281.46 that did not succeed.

In another case, he sent a delivery man to bring a Dodge to Los Angeles, promising to pay return flights that would never have been bought. The men were blocked and forced to buy their own tickets at home, with Segal, later sending a fake capture of a wire transfer to cover their expenses of $ 3,101.

This is not Segal’s first legal problem. The court documents obtained by the Daily Mail show that it had previously faced a civil prosecution claiming that it wrongly claimed that it had actions above $ 340 million and a prosperous company to rent a property in Los Angeles.

If it is captured, Segal will face a considerably increased obligation of $ 750,000 only in cash.
