47 Ronin 董事涉嫌从 Netflix 骗取 1100 万美元购买 DOGE 和其他加密货币

由基努·里维斯主演的电影《47 Ronin》的导演卡尔·埃里克·林施被指控诈骗 Netflix 购买加密货币和股票。

好莱坞导演兼编剧林施因与 Netflix 达成的价值 1100 万美元的科幻电视连续剧《白马》的协议而被捕并被起诉。

根据七项未密封的起诉书，林施在 2018 年获得了 4400 万美元的投资，用于资助该节目的制作。2019 年至 2020 年期间，他又获得了 1100 万美元的资金，这些资金被转移到一家由他全资控制的公司。

据称，Rinsch 并没有将这笔资金用于 White Horse，而是通过账户网络转移了 1100 万美元，并最终将资金存入了他的个人经纪账户。

The indictment, announced by acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Matthew Podolsky and Leslie Backschies, assistant director of the FBI’s New York Field Office, claims Rinsch illegally used the funds to trade cryptocurrencies and stocks.

Within two months of his first trades, Rinsch had reportedly lost over half of the capital. Authorities also allege that he spent about $5.3 million suing Netflix for cash, paying credit card bills, and acquiring one Ferrari sports car and five Rolls-Royces.

Despite his initial losses from crypto trading, Rinsch allegedly reinvested in digital assets. According to the charges, he made $27 million from a $4 million investment into Dogecoin (DOGE). The funds were sent to a Kraken account through a Schwab Bank deposit, per a report by The New York Times.

现年 47 岁的林施仅因一项电信欺诈罪名就面临最高 20 年监禁。如果洛杉矶法院判处最高刑罚，其他指控（包括洗钱和非法活动）可能分别被判处 10 至 20 年监禁。

开庭日期尚未确定。根据美国地方法院法官佩德罗·V·卡斯蒂略 (Pedro V. Castillo) 的命令，林施以 10 万美元保释金获释。
