A large amount of Bitcoin, believed to be funded by PlusToken Scam, moved to four addresses on the same day, according to a report by the Twitter account Whale Alert.

Whale Alert, a Twitter account dedicated to reporting large-scale cryptocurrency transactions, said on Thursday (local time) that a total of 22,923 BTC transactions are likely to be profits from PlusToken.

The four deals were moved by dividing into 6000 BTC, 5000 BTC, 7000 BTC and 4,923 BTC. All deals were made on Aug. 16th (Korean time: 17th). Whale Alert acknowledges that the deal is likely to be linked to a known plan but has not been confirmed.

PlusToken, meanwhile, is known to be the biggest cryptocurrency scam with about $2.9 billion in losses. PlusToken was found to have attracted investors by saying that deposits of $500 in cryptocurrency would guarantee the wallet owner an investment return of 8 percent to 16 percent per month.

Ciphertrace, a Forensics company specializing in cryptocurrency, says the platform includes several Chinese people and Chinese police and the company's co-founders, including a South Korean operating under the pseudonym of "Kim Jong-un" and a Russian known only as "Leo."

Recently, a U.S. district court announced an emergency freeze to preserve $8 million in assets relating to a number of companies being accused of fraud and unregistered ICO products.
