The German publication Der Spiegel has reported that fugitive Ruja Ignatova, also known as the "Cryptoqueen" and founder of Onecoin, is alive and currently living in a wealthy neighborhood in Cape Town, South Africa. This contradicts previous claims that Ignatova was murdered and disposed of in the Ionian Sea. German authorities, who have been investigating the Onecoin scam, have found gaps in the evidence implicating Ignatova's former security chief, leading them to believe that she is alive. They also received clues suggesting that she is in South Africa. The report also highlights the testimony of a former Onecoin employee and the trips made by Ignatova's brother to Cape Town, which further support the claim that she is still alive. However, verifying her whereabouts may be challenging due to the high level of security at her alleged residence.
