Two North Carolina men are charged with felony money laundering and conspiracy for a scheme to sell classic cars online from a Tulsa business address. Just the victims known to law enforcement lost $3 million, but officials believe there are more victims.
The Pender County Sheriff’s Office and North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation identified a money laundering operation that has ties to Moldova and Russia, officials said Monday. One suspect, Valentin Virlizanu, was arrested in North Carolina but released on a $25,000 bond. His brother, Vasile Virlizanu, is also facing charges but remains at large and is not legally in the United States, according to officials.
