OmegaPro scammer Angie Amaya fined $8.5K in Colombia
OmegaPro Ponzi promoter Angie Vanessa Pineda Amaya has been fined.
Amaya was one of eight scammers ordered to cease promoting OmegaPro in May 2021.
A year later, an internal investigation by Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia (SFC) revealed Amaya had failed to comply.
This prompted the SFC to issue Amaya with a $40 million COP fine ($8564 USD).
How much Amaya stole from Colombians through OmegaPro remains unclear. Her accomplices, named in the SFC’s May 2021 circular (scroll down to May 20th), include:
- Sebastián Ortiz Pion
- Hugo Fernando Hernández Rodríguez
- Daniel Leonardo Velásquez
- Katerine Carlozama Castro
- Harol Alfonso Alvarado Galván
- José Rolando Rodríguez Loaiza and
- Esteban Pinto Salazar
After scamming who knows how much from who knows how many Colombians, Amaya appears to have reinvented herself as a musician.
OmegaPro collapsed in November 2022. Investors in the scheme, most of whom appear to be from Colombia, are currently being exit-scammed through Broker Group.
SimilarWeb tracks Colombia as the largest source of traffic to OmegaPro’s and Broker Group’s respective websites (50% and 43%).
Update 15th January 2022 – In addition to Angie Amaya, the SFC fined two other OmegaPro scammers in 2022.
