RIYADH: She is wanted in connection with an alleged US$4bil (RM17.71bil) fraud case, and now, the self-proclaimed 'Cryptoqueen' Ruja Ignatova, has found herself on the Federal Bureau of Investigation's top ten most wanted fugitives list.

The US law-enforcement body is even offering a US$100,000 (RM442,700) reward for information leading to her arrest, prompting Internet detectives — dubbed 'netizens' — to search for clues for her whereabouts.
