According to Crypto News, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has announced the establishment of a Cross-Border Task Force to investigate foreign fraud schemes, including market manipulation practices like 'pump and dump.' The task force will also enhance enforcement efforts against 'gatekeepers' (such as underwriters and auditors) facilitating these organizations' entry into U.S. capital markets.
