According to prosecutors in Poznań, western Poland, he allegedly defrauded hundreds of clients who used the company’s online exchange services.
Marcin P. has been abroad since mid-2024 and has been the subject of a domestic arrest warrant since July.
Financial watchdogs take action
The Poznań Regional Prosecutor’s Office said it has frozen 328 bank accounts linked to Cinkciarz.pl and its affiliated companies, Conotoxia and Conotoxia Holding.
Poland’s Financial Supervision Authority later revoked Conotoxia’s payment services license after numerous customer complaints about delays in processing currency exchanges and money transfers.
Two other company executives have been detained as part of the investigation - board member Robert G., who denies wrongdoing, and chief accountant Monika J., who has reportedly admitted to participating in the fraud and provided extensive testimony.
If convicted, the suspects could face up to 25 years in prison.
