Yes, but only if you had CD's. They have limited jurisdiction unless securities are involved. They also share info with other LE folks. Contact this person Moustakis, Philip < MOUSTAKISP@sec.gov> I did, unfortunately. Tried to take my money out back when TF threw up the "this is a demo, none of it is real" wording, but unfortunately I had already renewed my CD by that point and he was going to charge me 5% of my principal to take my money out. Which felt a bit ridiculous given that he was changing the rules part way through the term of the CD. In retrospect, I should have argued more forcefully at that point, but it might not have done any good if I had anyway. |

Contact this person Moustakis, Philip < MOUSTAKISP@sec.gov> I have contacted him as well 1-2 weeks ago and filed an official complaint on the SEC website. Please do let us know if you hear something back, thanks. |

No it's in the hands of the police now. There isn't much else to do but wait from my end.
I am following things up now and again to make sure we're not forgotten but nothing worth updating has happened yet.
These things take time... :/

Thanks, batman, not crabman. Yes, this lack of updates is being difficult for many of us. Nevertheless, do you guys think is possible or reasonable to state a deadline (30, 60 days?) to continue actions? I have no experience in dealing with these kind of stuff. |

Wondering, how much did TF lost, before he implemented the ID Proof Check.
(the show your face with the id requirement).
Bought/Stolen ID's was used for making bitcoin loans.

I don't think that's relevant, there are legitimate losses and defaults, but most believe that the whole CL thing is just a scam.

I've been trying to email my contact at the WA Police for the last couple of days but haven't received a response. I forwarded the email to their general email address a while ago so hopefully should get something back tomorrow morning when the office re-opens (it's 6:40 pm here now).
I haven't forgotten about it or been doing nothing, it's just that not much happens over the holiday break for a few weeks plus these things take time as I've said.
I will continue to update with any developments but don't expect them too often.
