                   监管的市场中进行交易,并禁止其在 CFTC 注册。今天宣布的金钱救济令和初步

                   同意令共同了结了 CFTC 对 Ichioka 的执法行动。【参见 CFTC 新闻稿编号 8727-23】

                   收投资者资金,声称每 30 个工作日可获得 10%的回报。尽管 Ichioka 将部分资金

                   投资于外汇和数字资产商品,但他将参与者的资金与自己的资金混同,并将参与

                   者的资金用于个人开支,包括支付个人住宅租金、购买珠宝(包括手表)和豪华

                   汽车等。为掩盖其欺诈行为,Ichioka 通过伪造财务文件并向参与者提供虚假账

                        The Commodity Futures Trading Commission today announced Judge Vince

                   Chhabria of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California entered an

                   order Sept. 19 assessing monetary relief totaling over $36 million against William

                   Koo Ichioka, a New York resident formerly of San Francisco. The order requires


                   Ichioka to pay $31 million in restitution to defrauded victims and a $5 million civil

                   monetary penalty in connection with his fraudulent foreign currency (forex) and

                   digital asset fraud scheme.


                        On Aug. 14, 2023, the court entered an initial consent order of permanent

                   injunction against Ichioka, prohibiting him from future violations of the Commodity

                   Exchange Act (CEA) and CFTC regulations and banning him from trading in any

                   CFTC-regulated markets and from registering with the CFTC. This initial consent

                   order and the order entering monetary relief announced today resolve the CFTC’s

                   enforcement action against Ichioka. [See CFTC Press Release No.8727-23]
