23-Year-Old '#Crypto_King' Has Luxury Cars #Seized After $35 Million of Investor Money #Vanishes

#Five luxury cars, including two #BMWs, two #McLarens, and a #Lamborghini, have been #seized from 23-year-old Aiden Pleterski, the self-described “crypto king” of Canada, during bankruptcy proceedings according to a new report from the CBC.
But those cars are only worth a #fraction of the $35 million that Pleterski allegedly took from investors who thought he’d make them #rich?? in the #cryptocurrency market, and it’s not clear whether they’ll ever see their money again.
Pleterski and his company AP Private Equity Limited are facing at least two #civil_lawsuits after 140 people have come forward to say they invested a combined $35 million with Pleterski.
Those people believed they were investing in cryptocurrency, and Pleterski’s online presence—including photos of the 23-year-old on #private_jets and next to luxury cars—helped create the image that he knew what he was doing.
