The SEC has sued the founder of PGI Global for allegedly defrauding $198 million in encryption assets.

According to the lawsuit documents, Palafox raised approximately $198 million through a "membership" package and multi-level marketing model from January 2020 to October 2021.
The investigation showed that Palafox misappropriated over $57 million to purchase Lamborghinis, luxury goods, and cover personal expenses. The remaining funds were used in a Ponzi scheme to pay investor returns and referral rewards, which ultimately collapsed at the end of 2021.
