SummaryOn September 26, 2024, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Virginia unsealed an indictment charging Russian national Sergey Sergeevich Ivanov with one count of conspiracy to commit and aid and abet bank fraud for providing payment processing support to the carding website Rescator, and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering for laundering proceeds from the carding website Joker’s Stash.Ivanov allegedly operated for approximately two decades as one of the longest running professional cyber money launderers known to the United States government, advertising his services to other cybercriminals on exclusive Russian-speaking criminal forums such as DirectConnection and Mazafaka. Over the years, Ivanov’s laundering services and payment systems have catered to major cybercrime marketplaces and ransomware groups, and to prolific hackers responsible for some of the largest data breaches targeting critical U.S. financial infrastructure.Ivanov allegedly created and/or operated Russian payment and exchange services UAPS, PinPays, and PM2BTC, which provided money transfer and laundering services directly to criminals. In coordination with the indictment unsealing, the U.S. Secret Service obtained court authorization to seize domains associated with the UAPS and PM2BTC websites.Ivanov’s co-conspirator, Russian national Timur Kamilevich Shakhmametov, known online as “JokerStash” and “Vega,” among other aliases, is also charged in the same indictment for his alleged involvement in the creation and operation of Joker’s Stash.The prosecution is being handled by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia. In addition to the criminal charges, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued sanctions against Ivanov. The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) also identified PM2BTC as a “primary money laundering concern” in connection with Russian illicit finance, pursuant to section 9714(a) of the Combating Russian Money Laundering Act, as amended.The charges and allegations contained in the indictment are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.If you have information regarding this individual, please contact the U.S. Secret Service at MostWanted@usss.dhs.gov.[sources]
