United States Attorny's Office Eastern District of Michigan
DETROIT - The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan announced today a coordinated action with international partners and the Michigan State Police to disrupt and take down the online infrastructure used to operate E-Note, a cryptocurrency exchange that allegedly facilitated money laundering by transnational cyber-criminal organizations, including those targeting U.S. healthcare and critical infrastructure. Since 2017, the FBI identified more than $70,000,000 of illicit proceeds of ransomware attacks and account takeovers transferred via E-Note payment service and money mule network, including laundered funds stolen or extorted from U.S. victims.
