A federal judge in Florida has ordered two individuals to pay more than $30 million in restitution and penalties for allegedly defrauding over 9,000 people in a cryptocurrency and precious metals scam.

The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) said that default judgments were entered against Brian Early and Alisha Ann Kingrey, who were defendants in a 2023 lawsuit filed by the CFTC against a trading website called Fundsz and its founder, Rene Larralde.

The scam allegedly involved cryptocurrencies and precious metals, but no further details are provided. The case is ongoing.
