The New Accused in the Forecourt Case

• Antonia Perez Hernandez and Nestor Nunez pleaded guilty related to the Forcount
• Forcount cost investors approximately $8.4M. Juan Tacuri pleaded guilty in June 2024

The list of those responsible for the Forcount cryptocurrency scheme is growing, and justice is at work.

Recall that Forcount was a cryptocurrency scheme operating sometime between 2017 and 2021, allegedly defrauding predominantly Hispanic investors.

Investors advertised cryptocurrency trading and mining on Forcount, promising highly increased returns, but faced losses of about $8.4 million.

Eventually, a criminal element was proven in the series of criminal cases brought by US authorities against individuals involved with crypto firms.
