Three men charged in $2M cryptocurrency kidnapping and robbery

|
||||
Three men charged in $2M cryptocurrency kidnapping. Cryptocurrency heist suspects were arraigned in Manhattan court Tuesday.
|
||||
MEMBERS OF a Bronx biker gang, one sporting a skull tattoo, kidnapped a friend and robbed him of nearly $2 million in cryptocurrency, Manhattan prosecutors charged Tuesday.
|
||||
Cesar (Fuego) Guzman, 38, a paraprofessional with the Department of Education, Allan (Joker) Nunez, 36, and Darrell (Bishop) Colon, 37, joined Louis Meza, 35, to lure the cyber-millionaire victim into a minivan posing as a livery car on Nov. 4, 2017.
|
||||
Meza, of Jersey City, who originally set up the victim, his buddy, by getting him to get into the fake Uber was arrested and charged last December.
|
||||
Each of the men played a role in the heist.
|
||||
Colon was hiding in the rear row of seats and popped out with what appeared to be a gun to threaten the victim for his Ether — a type of virtual money, prosecutors said.
|
||||
Nunez drove the victim around for two hours at gunpoint until he coughed up the location of his 24-word passphrase. Meza, who was caught on surveillance camera, and Guzman, whose head is inked with tribal tats, broke into victim’s apartment where they nabbed his digital wallet and stole $1.8 million, prosecutor James Vinocur said at the men’s arraignment in Manhattan Supreme Court.
|
||||
“The investigation revealed that Mr. Guzman recruited both of these individuals based on their shared involvement in a Bronx motorcycle crew or group,” Vinocur said.
|
||||
Most of the stolen digital dollars were recovered, prosecutors said.
|
||||
The chunky trio may not seem like high-tech hoods, but Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance Jr. said everyone is getting clepto around crypto.

|
||||
“Investors aren’t the only ones tracking the fluctuating values of digital currencies — everyone from sophisticated cybercriminals to old-school shakedown-and-stick-up scammers are keeping a close eye, too,” Vance said.
|
||||
Nunez’s attorney told the judge that City Councilman Ritchie Torres penned a letter on his client’s behalf attesting to his good character and the charity work he does for his community in the Bronx.
|
||||
The attorney, Rob Georges, also argued that his client should get relatively minimal bail considering that fallen film producer Harvey Weinstein, another defendant in Manhattan, posted $1 million cash, which is just a fraction of his reported worth.
|
||||
“And he’s not suspected of being nearly as violent,” Georges argued.
|
||||
The three men pleaded not guilty in front of Justice Melissa Jackson.
|
||||
Guzman’s attorney said that in addition to working for the Education Department, his client attends night classes at Lehman College.
|
||||
Each of the men was held on at least $50,000 bail.

Man admits to $1.8M crypto heist, gets 10 years in prison
|
||||
By Rebecca Rosenberg
|
||||
Published Sep. 5, 2018, 7:50 p.m. ET
|
||||
|
||||
The mastermind of a $1.8 million cryptocurrency heist admitted to the robbery Wednesday in exchange for a decade in prison.
|
||||
|
||||
Louis Meza, 35, copped to first-degree grand larceny and second-degree kidnapping in Manhattan Supreme Court and is expected to be sentenced on Sept. 27 to 10 years behind bars and five years of post-release supervision.
|
||||
|
||||
“Louis Meza orchestrated a 21st-century stick-up,” said Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. in statement. “Then 21st-century investigators brought him swiftly to justice, securing a landmark conviction in an undeveloped area of the law.”
|
||||
|
||||
Meza — along with the help of three co-defendants whose cases are still pending — hatched the Nov. 4, 2017, scheme.
|
||||
|
||||
The men held the unnamed victim captive in a van for two hours while they stole his memory stick and used it to move the Ether currency into an account they controlled.
|
||||
|
||||
The cyber crooks allegedly pointed a BB gun at the victim and covered his head with a hood, but the shaken man broke free and was able to call 911, according to prosecutors.

Trio of crooks busted in $1.8M cryptocurrency heist
|
||||
By Rebecca Rosenberg
|
||||
|
||||
Three cyber crooks — including a church worker and a city Education Department staffer — were busted Tuesday for an elaborate $1.8 million cryptocurrency heist, authorities said.
|
||||
|
||||
The Nov. 4, 2017, scheme allegedly was orchestrated by Louis Meza, 35, who was arrested last December for the robbery.
|
||||
|
||||
He set up a meeting with the unnamed victim, then pretended to order an Uber to take him home, prosecutors said.
|
||||
Allan Nunez, 36, allegedly posed as the Uber driver, while Darrell Colon hid in the back of the minivan. When the victim stepped in, Colon pulled a gun and demanded his keys and a memory stick associated with his Ether currency account, court papers charge.
|
||||
|
||||
“I stuck the gun in the guy’s ribs and took his stuff,” Colon, who said the weapon was a BB gun, allegedly confessed to investigators.
|
||||
|
||||
The frightened victim was held captive inside the van for two hours with a hood over his head before escaping, Assistant District Attorney James Vinocur said Tuesday in Manhattan Supreme Court.
|
||||
|
||||
“The victim was able to run, terrified, for two blocks until he was able to reach a grocery store and call 911,” the prosecutor said.
|
||||
|
||||
Meza allegedly had enlisted his pal, Cesar Guzman, who works as a DOE paraprofessional, to help plan the robbery.
|
||||
|
||||
Officials said Guzman, 38, recruited Nunez, a church worker, and Colon from his motorcycle club.
|
||||
|
||||
While the victim was trapped inside the van, Meza and Guzman broke into his house.
|
||||
|
||||
Meza, who was caught on surveillance video leaving the victim’s home with a black box, used the stolen data to move the cyber funds into his personal account.
|
||||
Authorities said they recovered most of the currency.
|
||||
|
||||
Defense lawyer Michael Barsky argued that Guzman, who runs a neighborhood charity and cares for his autistic nephew, should be granted reasonable bail.
|
||||
|
||||
Attorney Rob Georges made a similar pitch for Nunez, then invoked the sex-assault case against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
