Jeremy Jordan-Jones, 35, is accused of defrauding investors in Amalgam, a cryptocurrency startup that is now defunct, with the money allegedly used to pay for a luxurious lifestyle that included stays at "high-end hotels and restaurants in Miami," car payments and designer clothing, according to court documents.

35歲的傑里米·喬丹·瓊斯（Jeremy Jordan-Jones）被指控在Amalgam上欺騙投資者，這是一家加密貨幣初創公司，現已倒閉，據稱這筆錢用於支付豪華的生活方式，其中包括在邁阿密的高端酒店和餐廳，”汽車付款和設計師服裝。

Among the investors was a venture capital firm, identified in a 2022 Forbes article as Brown Venture Group, which invested $500,000 in Amalgam.

投資者中有一家風險投資公司，在2022年福布斯的一篇文章中被確定為布朗風險集團，該集團投資了500,000美元。

Jordan-Jones is alleged to have touted Amalgam as a rapidly-growing tech company that created blockchain-based point-of-sale payment systems, which had multi-million-dollar partnerships with sports teams including the Golden State Warriors and a professional soccer team in England’s Premier League, as well as a big restaurant conglomerate with over 500 restaurants.

據稱，喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）被吹捧為一家快速發展的科技公司，該公司創建了基於區塊鏈的銷售點支付系統，該系統與運動隊建立了數百萬美元的合作夥伴關係，包括金州勇士隊和包括英格蘭英超聯賽的專業足球隊，以及一家與500多家餐館的大型餐廳。

However, these partnerships never existed, and Jordan-Jones allegedly lied to investors about the startup’s progress and the purpose of their investments.

但是，這些夥伴關係從未存在，據稱喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）就該創業公司的進步和投資目的向投資者撒謊。

According to prosecutors, Jordan-Jones would also allegedly tell investors that his goal was to list Amalgam’s non-existent crypto token on a crypto exchange, and that he needed their money to do so.

檢察官說，據稱，喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）還將告訴投資者，他的目標是在加密貨幣交易所上列出Amalgam的不存在的加密代幣，他需要他們的錢來這樣做。

But in actuality, prosecutors claim that Jordan-Jones used the money to pay for his personal expenses, including "high-end hotels and restaurants in Miami, clothing from high-end designers, and a Mercedes-Benz E450 Coupe."

但實際上，檢察官聲稱喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）用這筆錢支付了他的個人費用，包括“邁阿密的高端酒店和餐館，高端設計師的服裝，以及梅賽德斯 - 奔馳E450轎跑車”。

Prosecutors also said that Jordan-Jones provided falsified documents to a financial institution, which he used to fraudulently obtain a corporate credit card, racking up a $350,000 balance before the bank closed his account.

檢察官還說，喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）向金融機構提供了偽造的文件，他用來欺詐性地獲得公司信用卡，在銀行關閉其帳戶之前賺了35萬美元的餘額。

Jordan-Jones has been charged with one count each of wire fraud, securities fraud, making false statements to a financial institution and aggravated identity theft — charges which carry a combined maximum sentence of 82 years in prison. The aggravated identity theft charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of two years.

“Jordan-Jones, capitalizing on the publicity around blockchain technology, perpetrated a brazen scheme to defraud investors,” said U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton in a Tuesday press announcement. “He touted his company as a groundbreaking blockchain startup, backed by high-profile partnerships. In reality, Jordan-Jones’s company was a sham, and investors’ funds were siphoned off to bankroll his lavish lifestyle. This should be an example to would-be financial fraudsters that the women and men of the Southern District and the FBI are watching and to the investing public that fraudsters often use the promise of new technology to cloak their schemes.”

美國檢察官傑伊·克萊頓（Jay Clayton）在周二的新聞新聞公告中說：“喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）利用了圍繞區塊鏈技術的宣傳，使一項欺騙投資者的粗暴計劃犯下了鬥爭。” “他吹捧自己的公司是一家具有突破性的區塊鏈創業公司，並得到了高調的伙伴關係。實際上，喬丹·瓊斯（Jordan-Jones）的公司是一個假人，投資者的資金被偷偷摸摸地進行了努力，以資助他的奢侈生活方式。這應該是一個典型的榜樣。這應該是一個新的技術欺詐行為，並希望將其投資於FBI的新女性，並且是FBI的投資，並願意使用FBI的投資。掩護他們的計劃。”
