A Ukrainian operator pleaded guilty to running OnlyFake, an AI-driven platform that generated and sold more than 10,000 realistic fake digital IDs (passports, driver’s licenses, Social Security cards) used to bypass KYC controls at banks and cryptocurrency exchanges; undercover FBI purchases, cryptocurrency-based payments, and payment-routing obfuscation led to his extradition, $1.2M forfeiture, and forthcoming sentencing.
