US seizes $84M tied to Tether firm

American authorities seized approximately $84.2 million from bank accounts and cryptocurrency wallets linked to Capstone, a company that provided money transfer services and is suspected of involvement in a fraudulent scheme involving impersonating FBI clients and transferring funds into cryptocurrencies. The company had dealings with banks in the Dominican Republic, with its officials providing bank data claiming to be a technology company. Meanwhile, the investigation focused on their financial transactions connected to Tether, which denied any knowledge of suspicious activity. The authorities did not charge other companies, but they confiscated $81 million from Capstone's accounts at Wells Fargo, $2 million from JPMorgan Chase accounts, and $1.2 million in Tether stablecoins, bringing the total to around $84.2 million.
