Ruja Ignatova

Ruja Ignatova (born May 30, 1980) is a Bulgarian-born, German-linked entrepreneur and fraud figure best known in global financial news for her role in Onecoin, a cryptocurrency-marketing scheme that authorities describe as a large-scale scam. Her rise and subsequent disappearance helped make her one of the most recognizable fugitive names in the crypto era, often referred to by the nickname “Cryptoqueen,” and she has been publicly included among the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted fugitives.
