4.7 Regulation 犹他州男子因290万美元加密货币诈骗及无牌经营被判三年监禁，并被责令赔偿超380万美元。涉案金额累计超540万美元。
犹他州居民Brian Gary Sewell因通过虚假加密货币基金诈骗至少17名投资者近290万美元，并经营无牌现金兑换加密货币业务，被判处三年联邦监禁及三年监管释放。Sewell虚报资历并承诺高额回报，自2017年底至2024年初招揽投资者。 在另一项计划中，他通过Rockwell Capital Management为第三方（包括犯罪分子）将超过540万美元现金兑换为加密货币，未进行适当注册或遵守反洗钱法规。两项刑期将同时执行。 Sewell被判支付超过380万美元的赔偿金，受害方包括投资者、金融机构和国土安全部。此案显示，联邦当局对违反金融法规的加密货币运营者，即使规模较小，也会积极执法。
