Service Description

Cryptocurrency: Unraveling the Digital Currency Maze - Attendees will learn how cryptocurrency is used to facilitate many of the local crimes being committed.  Crimes such as investment scams, child sexual abuse material (CSAM), romance scams, drug trafficking, money laundering, human trafficking, and more can all be successfully investigated if an officer/investigator knows where to look and what questions to ask.  Although this technology brings new hurdles to law enforcement, it is very manageable with the right skills and instruction.  Seizing cryptocurrency, considerations for storing cryptocurrency, and case studies will be a focus with this presentation.
