Mango Markets Exploiter Charged with Possession of Child Pornography

Avraham Eisenberg, a notorious crypto markets exploiter, faces new allegations. He’s been charged with possession of child pornography. The FBI uncovered the material during a search of his devices back in January 2023.

I, as a crypto investor, have been following the recent developments regarding Avraham Eisenberg closely. It’s disappointing to learn that he was recently convicted for fraudulent activities and market manipulation, resulting in an $110 million heist from Mango Markets. However, the news has taken another unfortunate turn as Eisenberg is now facing new charges. He is accused of possessing child pornography. These allegations add a disturbing layer to his already questionable past actions.

The documents from the court, which carry a date of April 3rd, but weren’t made public until the 26th, accuse him of having pictures of children below the age of 12, who have not yet reached puberty.

The allegations have not been proven in court.

In August, a previous court filing disclosed that the incriminating content was initially uncovered on Eisenberg’s cell phones and computers during an early investigation of those devices in connection with accusations of market manipulation and fraud.

When the authorities found the relevant materials, they sought and acquired a new warrant in February 2023, broadening the initial search permit to investigate evidence of child pornography offenses based on the discovered items. (Court records indicate this.)

As a cryptocurrency investor, I’ve come across some disturbing news. Investigative journalist Christopher Brunet was the first one to report on alleged child pornography charges against Eisenberg. He even claims to possess screenshots where Eisenberg discusses children in a deeply disturbing manner.
