NEW YORK — Eddy Alexandre, a Valley Stream, NY, resident was charged last week on suspicion of orchestrating a fraudulent cryptocurrency scheme that drew more than $59 million from hundreds of investors, many of them fellow Haitian-Americans.
Prosecutors with the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York said Alexandre, 50, persuaded clients to invest large amounts of money via his trading platform, EminiFx. He transferred most of the money to his bank accounts and used it to purchase luxury goods, including a BMW and Mercedes, for himself.
