Russian Police are investigating a crypto mining facility, which is suspected of defrauding clients
It’s understood the miners handed devices to those who were running a mining hotel.
They are also accused of stealing their expensive coin minting hardware, and stopping payments to their customers.
The scam allegedly took place from November to May, where the suspects worked with people who wanted to install their coin minting hardware in a mining hotel.
They were offered electricity prices that were below market value.
Electricity consumed by some of the world’s largest cryptocurrencies has dropped by nearly half.
