The Believe in Magic charity was set up by a 16-year-old girl and her mother. Megan and Jean’s charity helped grant wishes to sick children in a make-a-wish sort of way and some kids, including Megan, even got to meet One Direction members.The charity was founded because Megan was diagnosed with a rare brain condition and a few years later a brain tumour. A group of internet sleuths became suspicious after Jean tried to raise money for an emergency trip to see a doctor overseas. So was Megan sick? And if she wasn’t, then how did she die?

Is she dead or alive? Ruja Ignatova launched a fake cryptocurrency that conned investors out of more than $4 billion. Then, with the police on her trail, she vanished. A years-long investigation has led BBC journalists down a rabbit hole of scams, spies and organised crime – including the new allegation that Ignatova may have been murdered by the suspected king of the Bulgarian underworld. But what is fact and what is rumour? Katya Adler is joined by Rob Byrne from the BBC podcast “The Missing Cryptoqueen”, and Storm Storm Theunissen from BBC Eye Investigations, who directed the Panorama film “The Missing Cryptoqueen: Dead or Alive?”TGS is part of the BBC News Podcasts family.

Dr Ruja Ignatova has been on the run since 2017 after orchestrating one of the biggest scams in history. This week on Whale Hunting, Bradley chats to Jamie Bartlett, the author and broadcaster who brought Ruja's shocking story into the mainstream with the hit podcast The Missing Cryptoqueen. Her OneCoin scam was somewhere between a crypto rug pull and a multi-level marketing scheme that pulled in ordinary retail investors to the tune of $4 billion. In this episode, Bradley chats to Jamie about his unorthodox journey into podcasting, from tracking fringe movements on Facebook to digging into the dark net, and his theory that radical online groups are often the first to embrace new technology. They also look back at how Jamie initially came across Ruja's scam, and how the story of the missing cryptoqueen continues to evolve five years on from the podcast's launch.

Jamie Bartlett is the co-writer and presenter of the BBC's podcast The Missing Cryptoqueen, an ongoing investigation into OneCoin and the disappearance of its founder Ruja Ignatova in 2017. In this interview, we discuss the latest updates on the case that triggered the first new episodes in the podcast being released in over 2 years. - - - - OneCoin was called the greatest Ponzi scheme in crypto. Obviously, a lot has happened this year that is likely to result in a reappraisal of that statement. But, the fraud perpetrated was eyewatering: allegedly $4 billion was stolen from investors. This means it ranks as still one of the biggest Ponzi schemes both inside and outside of crypto. Yet, what differentiates OneCoin from other Ponzi schemes is that the lead character has yet to be punished: in 2017, Ruja Ignatova, the glamourous and enigmatic founder of OneCoin, disappeared. Jamie Bartlett, a seasoned investigative journalist, started looking for her in 2019. Rumours turned into breadcrumb trails, which turned into credible leads, which turned into dust. Whilst Ruja remains elusive, the deeper Jamie delves into this case the more ominous the story becomes. What started out as a scam by a set of audacious schemers, soon became a broader criminal enterprise involving organised crime, corrupted state officials and powerful interests. The FBI has made Ruja one of their ten most wanted fugitives. The stakes are massive. A troubling aspect of this case is the willingness of supposedly reputable people and firms to engage in ‘legal' support for this fraud, including intimidation of those who seek to uncover the truth. This case cuts to the core of what is wrong in both crypto and wider society: willingness within professional groups to go along with malfeasance when there is money to be made. This is why we need more people like Jamie. More than the dogged determination to see a story through to a suitable conclusion is the dedication to a life without the quick and easy financial payoffs of other professions. Journalists are willing to avoid the incentives offered by other industries to pursue truth. Perhaps such uncelebrated bravery is the real story here.
“It's a gigantic pyramid scheme with all sorts of organised crime and money laundering angles to the story as well, but at the centre of it, it's just this woman who built a very sophisticated scam and then disappeared with all the money; and then the FBI finally put her on the 10 Most Wanted list about three months ago.”— Jaime BartlettJamie Bartlett is the co-writer and presenter of the BBC's podcast The Missing Cryptoqueen, an ongoing investigation into OneCoin and the disappearance of its founder Ruja Ignatova in 2017.

In perhaps our juiciest update yet we sink our taste buds into this week's Holiday cornucopia of flavors. From the North Pole to the South, but mostly in the US, we have a great new way for Santa to check on the condition of his elves, lots of coal to deliver, and one city that might not even make the delivery logistics planning list this year. In the US the Feds are regaling hackers with copious quantities of gifts this year, while the UK goes full Green, Grinching on those nice people who share their Netflix account details with half the neighborhood. Michael Dell and crew whip up the closest thing to a Lego snap-together endpoint we've ever heard of but stop short of sharing the tech so that everything that breaks could be mended as easily. And finally, we suggest that the Missing Cryptoqueen might have had plastic surgery and be working with S Claus. How else would he be financing gifting for 8 billion of us globally? This week's Update may raise more questions than it answers, and sometimes it works that way. Grab those snowshoes, let's go Arctic* and get to the bottom of what's going on up top! *Backstory: ‘Arctic' comes from the Greek word ‘arktos', meaning ‘bear' – the northern polar region is the sacred land of the polar bear.

The cryptocurrency world is a lot like the wild, wild west. Pioneers and trailblazers are breaking new ground to serve humanity. All the while, scalliwags and ne'er-do-wells are seizing the opportunity to exploit those courageous enough to venture down the path. There are incredible tales both of untold wealth and unfathomable loss as the crypto story is still being written. One of these tales was thoroughly documented by author, Jamie Bartlett. His book, THE MISSING CRYPTOQUEEN: The Billion Dollar Cryptocurrency Con and the Woman Who Got Away with It, is a wild, true crime tale that you must hear about. Tales such as this prompt us to seek solutions, and as a victim of crypto theft himself, Jamie has thoughts on how regulation might curb at least some of the criminal behavior.

It would not be hyperbole to describe the OneCoin scam as a 'once in a lifetime' story for a journalist. When Jamie Bartlett started his investigation of it, he began a journey that would lead to the uncovering of a $4 billion Ponzi scheme, a hit BBC podcast, and the titular Missing Cryptoqueen, Dr. Ruja Ignatova, appearing on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list. In this episode of The Wealthtech Show, Jamie explains what's happened since the last episode of the podcast series while offering his thoughts on where Dr. Ruja might be hiding out. We also take some time to discuss his work on the dark web, and why crypto is unlikely to be the savvy criminal's currency of choice in 2022.
gm. Mauricio Magaldi is back this week with a bonus episode to talk about a story that's been grasping everyone's attention. You may remember the OneCoin frenzy from its peak in 2015-2016, or its highly publicised fall in 2017 when its creator, Dr Ruja Ignotava, disappeared without a trace and millions, if not billions, of dollars. Regulators issued warnings, police departments around the world got involved, victims of the scam came out to share their stories, and the so-called ‘Cryptoqueen' is still nowhere to be found. Fast forward to right now, Ignatova is now on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list, and developments in her case have been rolling in. Today, we are bringing you a very special interview with the person behind the incredible 2019 BBC podcast series, ‘The Missing Cryptoqueen', which investigated the disappearance of Ignatova, and to chat about his new book: Jamie Bartlett.

In 2016, on stage at Wembley Arena in front of thousands of adoring fans, Dr Ruja Ignatova promised her followers a financial revolution. The future, she said, belonged to cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. And the Oxford-educated, self-styled cryptoqueen promised that the cryptocurrency she had created – OneCoin – would not only earn its investors untold fortunes but also change the world. A year later investors had bought more than $4 billion-worth of OneCoin. The true believers lived all over the world – in the USA, Pakistan, Hong Kong, Yemen, the UK, Brazil and beyond. But in October 2017 Ruja Ignatova disappeared from public view, and it slowly became clear to her followers that her revolutionary cryptocurrency was in fact one of the biggest scams in history. In June 2022 Jamie Bartlett came to Intelligence Squared to tell the shocking story of Dr Ruja and OneCoin. He drew from his new book The Missing Cryptoqueen to explain how organised crime, influencer culture and hype around cryptocurrencies combined to dupe some of the world's poorest people into thinking they had discovered a route out of poverty. Bartlett also discussed the broader questions around cryptocurrency's future and his ongoing hunt to find the cryptoqueen, who has been in hiding for five years and was recently added to EUROPOL's most wanted list.

What happens when a journalist investigates one of the biggest scams in history? My guest on this episode, Jamie Bartlett is the author of ‘The Missing Cryptoqueen', which tells the tale of his multi-year investigation into the disappearance of Dr Ruja Ignatova.Dr Ruja is the founder of OneCoin, a cryptocurrency that sold itself as an alternative to Bitcoin but was instead a pyramid-style scam which relieved people from 175 countries of at least £4 billion.The Missing Cryptoqueen is also the title of a BBC podcast that Jamie presents which explores the astonishing story behind OneCoin. In our conversation, Jamie explains how the One Coin scam worked, how he came across the story and what happened when he began to investigate it. We begin our conversation by exploring Jamie's early research into the Dark Net and how technology impacts our decision-making. He explains to my why, in many respects, algorithms prompt a reaction in us that is not dissimilar to religion.In that discussion, we talk about the English Defence League.

Here we are in 2022 navigating cancel culture, Brexit, identity politics, war in Europe. How did we get here? Did we miss something? Robert Carlyle, who played the wildcard Begbie in the '90s hit Trainspotting, is here to show us that we did. That the world we live in was shaped by the forgotten decade: the 1990s. From Hong Kong to Moscow, Cool Britannia to No Frills flights, we travel back in time to key moments in the '90s that reverberate today in unexpected ways. Episode 5: Tech Robert Carlyle uncovers a conflict in the 90s that we may not have been aware of – the crypto-wars between the so-called cypherpunks and the United States government. The fight was over online privacy and it was won by a computer programme called Phil Zimmermann, who faced four years in jail for releasing software called Pretty Good Privacy. As Jamie Bartlett, the author of The Missing Cryptoqueen explains, if it wasn't for Phil, we wouldn't be able to communicate securely online today.

I denne episode vender værtsparret Morten Elsøe og Torben Sangild begrebet "umulige forventninger" både i dagligdagen og i konspirationsteoretiske sammenhænge. De snakker om hvorledes man nuancerer den offentlige debat, i henhold til stormen på kongressen, corona-vacciner og Netflix-filmen, Don't Look Up. For hvordan når en debat i mål, hvis deltagerne konstant flytter målstregen? Derfor snakker Morten Elsøe og Torben Sangild idag om hvordan man diskuterer med folk, som er gift med deres holdning, og derfor sætter "umulige forventninger" i en debat. "Hvad ville få dig til at ændre mening?" er derfor det grundlæggende spørgsmål for dagens episode.Derudover vender Morten Elsøe og Torben Sangild Elisabeth Holmes-sagen, problematiske fejlslutninger og follow the money-argumenter."At noget er til nogens fordel er ikke det samme som at de står bag det. Jeg har draget fordel af at have en andelslejlighed i København, før boligpriserne steg. Det betyder jo ikke at jeg har fået boligpriserne til at stige, eller at jeg går ind for at boligpriserne stiger." eksemplificerer Torben Sangild.Til sidst kan det afslører Torben Sangild i denne episode, at han har besluttet sig for ikke at vaccinere sin datter - han foretrækker nemlig at få en læge til at gøre det.Husk, at du kan skrive til Torben og Morten med ris, ros og ideer på: sind@heartbeats.dkShow notes:- Blogpost fra 2016 af Dr. Steven Novella om hvad Theranos-sagen kan lære os om kritisk tænkning - Debatten om vaccinering af børn, som vi anbefaler er i to dele: Hele debatten på video og opsummering og opfølgende interviews- Podcasten om en svindler, som jeg anbefaler, hedder The Missing Cryptoqueen og kan findes hvor man finder sine podcast

Crypto is always in the headlines, with a growing number of people speculating on Bitcoin, Ethereum and other tokens. But, along with the rest of the financial industry, scams are rife. Thousands of people lost billions of dollars in the OneCoin scam, masterminded by the now infamous Missing Cryptoqueen, called 'one of the biggest scams in history'. How can you protect yourself from losing out? My guest on the podcast today is Erica Stanford, a crypto expert and educator. Erica is author of Crypto Wars: Faked Deaths, Missing Billions & Industry Disruption, highlighting the real stories behind some of the biggest crypto scams in the world. She's founder of crypto networking and events organisation the Crypto Curry Club, and a lecturer at Warwick Business School. In this conversation, I chat with Erica about distinguishing between the use case for crypto and the scam element of the industry, what some of the crypto scams look like, and the things you need to watch out for to avoid being scammed. Here's my conversation with Erica Stanford, author of Crypto Wars, in episode 556 of Informed Choice Radio.
Erica Stanford, author Crypto Wars In every new, emerging technology and in every industry there are opportunists, and there will always be some who seek to take advantage of circumstances. Lack of regulation, poverty, a global pandemic, or misunderstood, new technologies all create hotbeds for everything from opportunists to organised crime. In what was the Wild West of the fledging ecosystem around the game-changing new technology of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, numbers and the audacity of projects falling into the 'scam' category have been almost unprecedented. In crypto, especially during the 2016-2018 boom- or bubble - depending on who you ask- a time where many new cryptocurrencies and projects were launched and raised millions- then billions- pretty much out of thin air- but sadly still ongoing today- Ponzi schemes, exit scams, and even joke businesses have cumulatively parted tens of billions of dollars, if not more, from millions of people all around the world. If thousands of people can lose billions of dollars in OneCoin, masterminded by the now infamous Missing Cryptoqueen made famous by the BBC's podcast series and called 'one of the biggest scams in history' by The Times, what makes you think your money is safe? OneCoin isn't alone. Crypto Wars: Faked Deaths, Missing Billions and Industry Disruption reveals some of the most shocking scams affected millions of innocent people all around the world with everything from religious leaders to celebrities involved. In this book, you get exclusive access to the back story of the most extreme Ponzi schemes, the most bizarre hoaxes and brutal exit strategies from some of the biggest charlatans of crypto. The book doesn't just touch on scams, but also on some of the mistakes and events that have shaped crypto history, albeit at the cost of some of its investors. Written by Erica Stanford, the founder of the UK's thriving crypto community, the Crypto Curry Club, featuring interviews with several of those who have been driving investigations into the biggest scams including an exclusive interview with Jamie Bartlett from the BBC's Missing Cryptoqueen to give some insight into how some of these scams got so big, often right under the regulators' watchful gaze, how people fall for them, how some people can tell, often within a minute, what is a scam and what isn't, some overview into the Wild West of some of crypto's rockier moments, some clarity into how these scams operate and so hopefully prevent people for falling for them and hopefully some optimism about some of the great that crypto is doing and continues to do for millions of people around the world.

Joining me today is Associate Professor Tobias Denskus from Malmø University in Sweden, and we're talking about communication in the development sector. Communicating well can be tricky at the best of times, but when it comes to communicating about development issues, it becomes even tricker. For a long time, the vast majority of charities communicated their work through fundraising campaigns, featuring stereotypical representations of the poor and vulnerable in order to elicit donations.Think about the ads featuring starving African children, with flyblown eyes and distended bellies. Growing up, this was the standard for charity advertising – and it seemed that charities were trying to one up each other in a race for scare donor funds - who can publish the most heartbreaking image? What about media? What responsibility does media have to portray the poor and vulnerable in dignified and respectful ways, while also being careful to avoid perpetuating the white saviour complex? Tobias teaches a Masters program in Communication for Development, and conducts research on how communication can lead to learning and challenge white saviorism, stereotypical campaigns and superficial influencers on Instagram. Tobias runs the excellent blog, Aidnography and a Twitter account of the same name. Tobias is reading Understanding Libya Since Gaddafi by Ulf Laessing and People in Glass Houses by Shirley Hazzard Tobias is listening to the ReThinking Development Podcast, UN Dispatch by Mark Goldberg, and The Missing Cryptoqueen by BBC

This week on The Property Podcast, The Robs are doing something a little different. Rob B is interviewing Rob D on his own property development exploits. One of our most popular podcast episodes this year was when we discussed our project in Crewe, which was a rather eventful and emotional journey to say the least. If you haven't listened to that episode, you can do so here. But amazingly, that wasn't enough to put off Rob D. He's just done a property development project just outside of York. In the episode you can expect to find out: What exactly this development was What the results were What went wrong What went right And what lessons Rob D learnt from this project So sit down, grab a brew and tune in as Rob B picks Rob D's brain about this new property development. In the news this week, Savills have predicted that house prices are going to increase by £35,000 in five years for some parts of the country. No shock that it's actually in line with what Rob & Rob have been saying throughout the year, and the highest regional growth will be in the North West, which will go up by 24%. Maybe now you'll take that leap into investing in one of the areas that The Robs picked as their 2019 property hotspots. And if you haven't watched it already, last week we published our latest YouTube video, the essential guide to property tax which will walk you through the various taxes you have to pay and some ways that you can avoid them. So make sure you go give it a watch, hit that subscribe button and turn on notifications so you don't miss our next one. For Hub Extra this week we've got a podcast that Rob D just can't stop listening to. It's called The Missing Cryptoqueen from the BBC. Now before you jump the gun, Rob D isn't interested in getting involved in crypto currency, or a massive scam, which is what the podcast is all about. It's only an 8-part series but it's a really interesting one. To give you a brief overview, it's about a woman who created a new crypto currency which was going to be bigger than Bitcoin. She secured billions of Euros from people all over and then just vanished, and nobody knows where she is. It's very fascinating so definitely give it a listen! We'd love to hear what you think of this week's Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you'd like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we'll see what we can do.

Location: London Date: Monday, 11th Nov Project: The Missing Cryptoqueen Role: Host OneCoin, a project founded by Ruja Ignatova, promised a financial revolution. By the time Ignatova disappeared, the scam was alleged to have received over $5bn in investment (though some estimates may put it at over $15bn). While OneCoin claimed to be running a private blockchain, in reality, it was a Ponzi scheme where buyers purchased 'packages' and received 'educational material'. During the process, they earned OneCoin tokens, and there were incentive schemes to onboard new users. Once people had received their OneCoins, the only place they could trade them was with another OneCoin user on the scheme's private 'exchange'. While the scam began to unravel with the disappearance of Ruja and the arrest of her brother, many struggled to accept it was a scam and money continued to pour in. The word scam is thrown around loosely in crypto, often from cult-like followers who disagree with an ideology that another coin possesses or sometimes due to a lack of knowledge. While some projects may be misguided or have questionable use-cases, not all are scams like OneCoin Bitconnect and PlusToken. Experienced investors see these projects and immediately identify the warning signs; sadly, this is not necessarily the case for newcomers. The language used in Bitcoin and crypto can be confusing, and when regular people hear or read about a project that is 'The New Bitcoin' with promises the project is like buying Bitcoin at $1, $10 or $100, these scams can quickly suck in naive investors. So, should Bitcoiners be doing more to spread awareness of these scams as they arise and what can Bitcoiners learn about guiding new investors from scams such as this? In this interview, I talk to Jamie Bartlett, host of the BBC's podcast The Missing Cryptoqueen, an investigation into OneCoin and the disappearance of its founder Ruja Ignatova. We discuss scams, Ponzi's, pyramids, cults and multi-level marketing.
'Who is to blame?' One of the world's highest-earning Multi-Level-Marketers and former OneCoin top seller agrees to speak. In his mansion on the outskirts of Amsterdam, Jamie learns the secret behind OneCoin's rapid growth and the huge amounts of money that has been made by those at the top. The Missing Cryptoqueen is an eight-part series for BBC Sounds, with new episodes every Thursday.

In Spring this year, something unexpected happened. On March 6th 2019, Dr Ruja's brother Konstantin was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport and charged with money laundering and fraud in connection with OneCoin. Dr Ruja was also charged in absentia, and US authorities declared OneCoin a fraud. We thought this could be the end of OneCoin, and our search. It wasn't. Why?

Not all is as it seems with Dr Ruja's revolutionary cryptocurrency, OneCoin. The Missing Cryptoqueen is an eight-part series for BBC Sounds, with new episodes every Thursday.

In 2014, a businesswoman called Dr Ruja Ignatova launched a new cryptocurrency that promised to change money forever. OneCoin, she said, was similar to Bitcoin, only bigger, better and easier to use. Within two years, over 3 million people had joined the OneCoin revolution, and Dr Ruja became rich and famous. But then she suddenly disappeared and hasn't been seen since. For the last six months, writer and journalist Jamie Bartlett has been on the hunt to find The Missing Cryptoqueen. What he uncovers is a lot more than a missing woman. It's a story of greed, deceit and herd madness that takes him all over the world - and gets far weirder than he thought possible. New episodes every Thursday morning, starting 19th September.
