Interpol recovers $97M in global crypto sting targeting internet financial crimes.
Interpol has recovered $439M of stolen funds, including $97M in cryptocurrencies and physical property. The recovered funds came from global operations to crack down on cybercrime, which claimed $40.9B in illegal crypto funds last year.
The operation, codenamed HAECHI VI, involved law enforcement agencies from 40 countries across multiple continents between April and August 2025, targeting seven major categories of financial cybercrime: investment fraud, romance scams, phishing, money laundering linked to online gambling, sextortion, e-commerce fraud, and business email compromise schemes.
