April 30—A 22-year-old Newport Beach man, Evan Lorne Tangman, was sentenced to 70 months in federal prison Wednesday for laundering money for a youth fraud ring, the Los Angeles Times reported. Tangman admitted to laundering at least $3.5 million for the group, which stole over $263 million in cryptocurrency from investors via social engineering—including impersonating cryptocurrency exchange staff. His rewards included a Lamborghini, Porsche and other luxury sports cars. Federal agents seized a black 2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost (valued at over $300,000) and a Porsche GT3 RS from his home. The ring, known as the “crypto kids,” consisted of teenagers who used illicit funds to rent mansions and private jets, buy luxury goods and spend up to $500,000 in a single night at nightclubs. Tangman also instructed others to destroy digital devices after group members were arrested.
