The law suit is captioned Wildes, et al. v. BitConnect International PLC, et al., Case No. 9:18-cv-80086-DMM and can be viewed here.

The lawsuit states Bitconnect fraudulently sold unregistered securities and grossly overstated daily and monthly returns. The defendants are accused of operating a Ponzi scheme that used high levels of recruitment through social media and promoters. Promises of huge returns were nothing more than reallocated funds from new investors to old. The plaintiffs are hoping for a jury trial with proceeds going to repay investors as well as covering court costs. Damages are listed at over $5 million USD.
