- Durham Regional Police fear there are more victims involved in a “massive” fraud case allegedly linked to Ontario’s self-declared “Crypto King.”
That so-called Crypto King, 25-year-old Aiden Pleterski from Whitby, is facing charges of fraud over $5,000 and laundering the proceeds of crime.
Durham police announced his arrest on Wednesday; Colin Murphy, a 27-year-old Oshawa man, is facing the same charges.
In an update Thursday, Durham police Chief Peter Moreira alleged Pleterski, who reportedly ran a firm dubbed AP Private Equity, was attempting to solicit investment as early as February.

The kid defrauded everybody lol
He's a narcissist that was so disingenuous that he formulated a long running scam, and interestingly enough, wanted to be known as monarchy based on the choice of nickname.
as if the monetary system we all already live under isn’t a ponzi scheme. 😂😂😂🤦🏻♀️
Dire Straits - The Man's Too Strong. In FRAUD we trust.
How does anyone trust these kids with their hard earned money?
Because they are too lazy to work and earn money the honest way.
That's plain stupid. They obviously had money to invest. You saying they didn't work hard to obtain what they had. If anything they were to lazy to look into investing themselves @darrellbobyk6363
This kids mistake was his head got too big. Pride cometh befor a fall
Greed
Why even hold a press conference? ..When every single question from the media is answered with "we can't answer that at this time due to a publication ban" ...silly
How stupid and gullible can people be in the search of fake riches?
We watched the kid rip off people for 2 yrs before we did anything . How wonderful 😂
About time he was arrested…hope he gets lots of time in jail
this is canada bro no1 get hard time
How did he not serve time the first time this happened?
People are so dumb to give their money to this thief.
Starts with an overheard conversation about Hockey, classic.
Casual convo. Lol
Crypto king has lost his crown now he is the cellblock king!! 😢😢😂😂😂😂
Queen
Look at these guys! Who in their right mind would invest anything with these two punks?
It's amazing how many people turn a willfully ignorant blind eye in preference of magical childish thinking and even keep being scammed by the same scammers over and over, to the point of what seems to define stockholm syndrome encapsulation.
That whole "press conference" was literally them saying they can't answer any questions. ..SMH
Why the poor quality video that is freezing up in places? The USA seems to do these kind of press releases with perfect video. So I am led to believe that Canadian press doesn't care or our communication infrastruture is in poor shape --- either answer is troubling.
fraud the only crime that pays .... there loaded even when they get out of jail !
I though millionaires would be smart enough too not get ripped off by a kid
This should serve as an example to many of these thieves out there stealing peoples hard earned money all in the name of investment.
slap on the wrist ...
Penalties for white collar crime in Canada is a joke. These 2 will do minimal time and have millions in offshore funds awaiting for them.
Lol why on earth would anyone hand money over to kids?
These punks were all over social media and it was so easy to see they were scammers.
I suspect he didn't get a free pass in the first instance, the law was just building their case which was then aided by his continued efforts even after knowing he was on their radar.
Weasel.
Never trust people who ''reivented'' money.
Define money. Good luck.
With our weak laws, and inept Judical system, they will be back on the streets in a few weeks
Pride comes before a fall.........Karma never misses the address
crypto king now becomes the soap in the shower king!
If we get back more than we put in why are arsonists still trying to burn down Canada's oil capitol Justin?
That creepy little right winger.
The legal system should publish his political voting preference. It would be rather educational for many.
these guys look like they sell rolled up parsley to kids
Yeah, I am invested in crypto and my account been hacked. I am missing $1000 feel like 2 to 3 years ago. This happened to me. My account has been wiped out.
So many grifters, for so many of those always only paper god$.
Basically all of em.
You trusted people who said they reinvented money.
This kids parents also need to be held accountable…if you raise a sociopath criminal some of the outcome is your responsibility as well…this little *ucker isn’t even remorseful AND his parents keep paying for his lifestyle…despicable
i dont know you/ you talk a big game il be rich. and i have to give you money in advance,,,,, why on earth would any body do that....hope people that got caught up in this scheme get a bit of money back...
If you listen to a couple of kids you get what you deserve lol
Old ppl lie more than kids fyi
