[Coinbase Collaborates with International Law Enforcement to Combat West African Crypto Scam Network]
From October 6 to 9, Coinbase's Global Intelligence team participated in a joint operation led by the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA) and the U.S. Department of Justice's Fraud Section Task Force. The operation, in collaboration with the Tech Against Scams Alliance and multiple international law enforcement agencies, targeted a West African criminal scam network. During the operation, Coinbase was responsible for tracking illicit fund flows, freezing scam-related assets, and sharing intelligence with law enforcement to counter fraudulent cryptocurrency investments, impersonation of law enforcement officers, and fake video arrests.
