We're £26.79 short on money this month.That's only 11 people donating £2.50.Have you played your part?The site can't live without it so please help if you can.US authorities have arrested new suspects in a lingering case that is linked to data breaches at some of the US' biggest financial firms, but also a money laundering scheme that involved a Bitcoin exchange website secretly and illegally operating through a New Jersey credit union.Legal proceedings started in July 2015, when authorities arrested four suspects in relation to data breaches at twelve international companies, including nine financial institutions, between 2007 and 2014.Authorities filed official charges against three Israeli citizens in November 2015, accusing them of stealing data from over 100 million users.JPMorgan Chase, Scottrade, The Wall Street Journal, E*Trade Financial Corp, TD Ameritrade, News Corp, and seven other more companies suffered data breaches.Prosecutors charged a fourth man, Anthony Murgio, 31, of Florida, but at that time, authorities provided no details except an accusation of running illegal Bitcoin exchanges.

More details were provided in subsequent charges in March 2016.Murgio and his partner, Yuri Lebedev, were accused of running the Bitcoin exchange portal Coin.mx by disguising Bitcoin-dollar transactions via the Helping Other People Excel (HOPE) Federal Credit Union in Jackson, New Jersey.The credit union's former president, Trevon Gross, 46, was also charged with taking a bribe to facilitate Murgio's election on the credit union's board of directors.According to a recent report from the SunSentinel, Michael Murgio, 65, of Florida, Anthony Murgio's father, was also arrested and charged with federal bribery charges, being involved in the incident mentioned above.Additionally, the prosecution also piled a money laundering charge on top of the previous indictments for Murgio and Lebedev, Coin.mx's operators.Prosecutors are accusing the two of knowing that their service was used to convert dollars to Bitcoin, which would then be used by victims of ransomware infections to pay ransoms.US laws say that Murgio and Lebedev should have informed authorities that such actions were happening through their service, instead of remaining silent and indirectly complicit in the crime.

Of course, the technical details of Bitcoin transactions wouldn't have helped US authorities track down ransomware operators anyway, but this was just another opportunity to throw an extra charge on an already bulky criminal case.Let's get the Bitcoin marketplace jumpstarted in and around the Sacramento region!I started this group because I wanted to help bring people who use Bitcoin and are interested in Bitcoin together.The goal is to talk about how we can use constructive, persuasive and actionable ideas in bringing some traction to this exciting marketplace in and around the Sacramento region.We can meet as often as the people involved choose.I'm open to suggestions all the way around.The idea is to make understanding Bitcoin fun and to get more people involved in this wonderful market innovation!Log in with Facebook to find out By creating a Meetup account, you agree to the Terms of Service Welcome!Upcoming Suggested Past Calendar Recent Meetups 5 days ago · 7:00 PM Bitcoin Monthly Meetup 20 bitcoin users, bitcoin curious | 5.001 Our regular monthly meetup for any and all interested in bitcoin and other crypto currencies!

A separate but related indictment unveiled in Atlanta against Shalon, and Aaron claims that the brokerages E*Trade and Scottrade were also targeted; and that the information of 10 million customers was compromised.At the time of the arrests in Israel, Anthony Murgio and Yuri Lebedev were arrested and charged in New York for operating the Coin.mx bitcoin exchange, and using it to launder bitcoin proceeds from ransomware.The FBI released a statement that said, "In doing so, Murgio, and his co-conspirators knowingly enabled the criminals responsible for those attacks to receive the proceeds of their crimes, yet, in violation of federal anti-money laundering laws, Murgio never filed any suspicious activity reports regarding any of the transactions."Although these are separate indictments, it is generally considered that they are related.Murgio and Aaron were apparently friends at Florida State university.Both made frequent trips to Russia, and it has been suggested that there was involvement with the Russian underground.
