(2/14/2014): Victims of federal crime are free to seek the advice of an attorney regarding remission. While you can be represented by an attorney regarding remission, it is not a requirement. A determination about your possible entitlement to restitution through the remission process is not based upon whether you have retained an attorney or not. In other words, it is not necessary for you to hire an attorney to participate in the remission process. If you are represented by an attorney, however, you must still comply with all the requirements including providing documentation to support your claimed investment with EMG. In addition, the United States does not charge any fees whatsoever (including through third parties) to any individual, regardless of citizenship, for application to and participation in the remission process.
Las víctimas de delitos federales son libres de buscar el consejo de un abogado sobre la remision. Mientras usted puede ser representado por un abogado sobre la remision, no es un requisito. La determinación acerca de su derecho a la restitucion sea posible a traves del proceso de remision no se basa en si se ha contratado a un abogado o no. En otras palabras, no es necesario que usted contrate a un abogado para que participe en el proceso de remision. Si usted esta representado por un abogado, sin embargo, usted tien que cumplir con todos los requisitos incluyendo proporcionando documentacion para apoyar su inversión reivindicada con EMG. Ademas, los Estados Unidos no le cobra honorarios por tipo (incluso a traves de terceros) a cualquier persona, independientemente de su nacionalidad, para la aplicacion y la participacion en el proceso de remision.
(11/7/2013): On October 31, 2013, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida entered orders of forfeiture for over $138 million in assets which were seized by federal authorities for their involvement in a fraud perpetrated by Evolution Market Group. The United States Department of Justice will distribute these funds to eligible victims of the fraud through a process called "Remission.”
El 31 de octubre de 2013, la Corte de Los Estados Unidos del Distrito Mediano de la Florida radico ordenes de confiscación por sobre $138 millones en bienes los cuales fueron confiscados por las autoridades federales por la participación en un fraude cometido por Evolution Market Group. Los Estados Unidos distribuira esos fondos a victimas elegibles del fraude por el proceso llamado “Remisión.”
Remission occurs when forfeited assets are returned to the victims of the crime underlying the forfeiture. Authority to grant remission rests with the United States Attorney General, as delegated to the Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Section of the United States Department of Justice. The remission process is governed by the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 28, Part 9 (2012).

El proceso de remisión es gobernado por el codigo de Regulaciónes Federales, Capitulo 28, Parte 9 (2012).
Persons who incurred a financial loss because of investment with Evolution Market Group d/b/a Finanzas Forex may be eligible for remission.

In order to be eligible to receive remission, a victim must submit a Petition Form to the remission administrator. The remission administrator will be sending the Petition Form to each of the known victims of the fraud at a later date. Accordingly, it is very important that we have updated contact information (address, e-mail address and telephone number) for each victim. If you have previously submitted a Victim Information Sheet to the United States Attorney’s Office or the United States Secret Service, and your contact information has changed, please provide updated contact information to either of the following:
By E-Mail:

Para ser elegibles para recibir remisión, la victima tiene que someter una Forma de Petición al administrador de remisión. Mas luego, el administrador de remisión estara enviado la Forma de Petición a cada una de las victimas “conocidas” del fraude. En consecuencia, es muy importante que tengamos la información de contacto actualizada (dirección, correo electronico y numero de telefono) de cada victima. Si usted previamente sometio una Forma de Información de Victima a Fiscalia Federal de los Estados Unidos o al Servicio Secreto de los Estados Unidos, y su información ha cambiado, favor de proveer su información de contacto actualizada a cualquiera de los siguientes:

(10/31/2012): If you previously completed and submitted a Victim Information Sheet but did not submit documents to support your claimed loss, you MUST submit those documents or your claim may not be considered for restoration/remission purposes. Supporting documents include, but are not limited to: cancelled checks, wire transfers receipts, bank statements, receipts, agreements, contracts, monthly statements, correspondence (including e-mail) between yourself and operators/employees of the alleged fraud, and/or computer screen shots regarding your account.
The more documents you provide, the easier it will be to verify your claimed loss. Please send all supporting documents by regular mail no later than January 31, 2013, to the United States Secret Service, Attn: Agent Tom Campbell, 390 N. Orange Avenue, Suite 1300, Orlando, FL 32801. If you have already completed and returned a Victim Information Sheet, DO NOT submit a second one, but please make sure that your name is clearly identified on each page of any documents you provide.
(10/31/2012): It is very important that you provide documentation which supports your claim of investment with EMG. Without such documentation, the United States may not be able to verify the amount of your investment. IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY SUPPLIED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS, please provide them immediately. As noted above, such documents may include cancelled checks, wire transfer receipts, certifications, and other related financial documentation. Additional documentation that may be considered are EMG website screen shots of account statements and notices/updates from EMG and/or its administrators, videos of EMG rallies/conferences, and PowerPoint presentations from EMG rallies/conferences. The more information that is provided, the easier it will be to verify your claim of investment.
(10/31/2012): Victims of federal crime are free to seek the advice of an attorney regarding their rights, including the right to restitution. As noted below, while you can be represented by an attorney regarding restitution, it is not a requirement. If a determination is made that you are entitled to restitution, it will be ordered by the Court, and is not based upon whether you have retained an attorney or not. If you are represented by an attorney, however, you must still comply with all the requirements including providing documentation to support your claimed investment with EMG.
The United States government does not charge crime victims fees of any kind. Specifically, the United States government does not charge for any work that the government performs related to its criminal prosecution, including for collection of restitution. If you are contacted by any person, business, or other organization claiming to be a representative of the United States government, the United States Attorney's Office, any prosecutor, investigator, or other person or entity involved in the prosecution pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, do not provide that person(s) with any money or information and contact us immediately at our e-mail address: USAFLM.ORLVW@usdoj.gov. Please include the word "EMG" in the subject line of the e-mail and your name and address in the body of the e-mail. We will reply as promptly as possible but please allow 2-3 working days.
If you are deemed to be a victim in this case, restitution amounts will be determined by the district court judge when the defendant is sentenced in a criminal prosecution. If there is no restitution ordered in the criminal prosecution or if the United States forfeits funds in a civil forfeiture action and there is no criminal prosecution, your claim for reimbursem*nt will be considered through a process known as "remission". The United States also does not charge for any work that it performs if your claim for reimbursem*nt is considered through the remission process. (Administrative costs may be deducted from forfeited amounts prior to disbursem*nt.) While you are free to retain your own attorney or legal counsel to represent you during the processes, we do not require that you have any attorney or legal counsel to seek restitution or file a claim for remission.
