That 81 million dollars is made of 24 times three, as under RICO you can sue for triple damages, plus another nine million bucks in legal costs and expenses.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This lawsuit is about the unauthorized and wrongful taking from [Terpin] of nearly $24m in cryptocurrency,&#8221; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2019\/01\/16\/terpinvtrugliacomplaint.pdf\">the suit<\/a> [PDF] reads.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On information and belief, Truglia was at the center of this conversion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"promo_article\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2018\/11\/29\/rice.jpg?x=174&amp;y=115&amp;crop=1\" width=\"174\" height=\"115\" alt=\"rice\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 title=\"Endorsement could come back to bite Evander Holyfield\">Alleged crypto-crook CEO cuffed by FBI after $4m investment in his bank bafflingly vanishes<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2018\/11\/29\/arisebank_funds_arrest\/\"><span>READ MORE<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Terpin claims that Truglia and the 25 other Doe defendants were behind the January 7, 2018 hijacking of his AT&amp;T wireless account.

Within two days, the entire $24m balance of the wallet was drained.<\/p>\n<p>Around this same time, Truglia, who is currently serving time in California for SIM card fraud, was <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2019\/01\/16\/chris-david-declaration-redacted-3119196-1.pdf\">said to be<\/a> [PDF] living the high-life in Manhattan on what he told friends was a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2018\/08\/15\/att_sued_cryptocurrency\/\">fortune<\/a> made hacking the crypto-concurrency accounts of Terpin and others.
