‘Goddess of Wealth’ jailed for 11 years for $7.2B BTC fraud case with over 100K victims

Between 2014 and 2017, Zhimin Qian, age 47, ran a large Ponzi scheme in China, promising investors returns as high as 300%. Her company, Lantian Gerui (also known as Blue Sky Greet), falsely claimed to be investing in cryptocurrency mining and developing new technologies. Authorities say it was actually a cover for a massive fraud, one of the largest financial scams ever discovered.
