A Bulgarian woman named Irina Dilkinska has been extradited to the US and charged in connection with the OneCoin crypto scam, the US Department of Justice said.
Dilkinska was extradited on March 20 and will appear before a US judge.

She worked as head of the legal department of OneCoin. The indictment against Dilkinska alleges that she helped create fictitious companies for the purpose of laundering money and preserving property belonging to "crypto queen" Ruzha Ignatova.

Dilkinska is also alleged to have helped lawyer and OneCoin co-conspirator Mark Scott launder $400 million. After Scott's arrest, she destroyed incriminating information and notified another person involved of the arrest.

Dilkinska is charged with conspiracy to commit fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Either charge carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
