The Internet currency exchange, Liberty Reserve, was charged
with laundering $6 billion in suspected criminal proceeds.
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara represents the Southern District
of New York. She says the exchange operated as a “black market bank” in order
to “facilitate criminal activity.”
Other officials say Liberty Reserve provided anonymous and
easily accessible banking infrastructure usable to criminal networks.
The company is thought to have more than 1 million users across
the globe, including 200,000 from the United State.
