In an Aug. 1 notice, the New York State District Attorney's Office said it had charged Michael Lauchlan with three counts of grand larceny and two counts of fraud for stealing money from Coin Dispute Network users. According to the district attorney, Michael Lauchlan claimed to be able to track and recover lost crypto assets, but in fact it defrauded customers of fees and stole ether from at least three users.
