Here’s what the investigation revealed: • The fake app "HPZ Tokens" promises hefty profits. • The public was deceived into investing in non-existent $BTC mining machines. • Funds were sent through 150+ shell accounts and then converted into crypto. • Funds were transferred abroad using India's new payment aggregator systems. • The ED had previously frozen ₹91.6 crore linked to the first syndicate.
