🚨 Forbes「30位30岁以下精英」再现丑闻：Kalder 创始人涉嫌 700 万美元诈骗被起诉
金融科技领域再现重磅“爆雷”。曾入选福布斯（Forbes）“30 Under 30”榜单的 Kalder 创始人 Gökçe Güven 正面临美国联邦法院的严重指控。
📍 核心指控摘要：
美国司法部指控这位 26 岁的土耳其籍创始人涉嫌通过虚假信息构筑商业帝国：
欺诈投资者：在 2024 年 4 月的种子轮融资中，Kalder 成功筹集了 700 万美元。检方称，Güven 大肆伪造了公司的财务状况和客户数据。签证欺诈：除了金融犯罪，她还涉嫌在留美签证申请中造假。严重身份窃用：起诉书中还提到了加重情节的个人身份信息盗取。
Kalder 此前定位为 Web3 奖励与忠诚度平台，口号是“将奖励转化为收入流”。而现在，该项目或将成为其创始人的“法律陷阱”。
⚠️ 行业反思：
这已经不是福布斯榜单成员第一次“翻车”（想一想 SBF 或 Caroline Ellison）。这再次证明，即便有大牌媒体背书或顶级 VC 投资，投资前的 DYOR（尽职调查） 依然不可或缺。

🚨 Another Forbes "30 Under 30" Star Under Fire: Kalder Founder Charged with $7M Fraud
The infamous "Forbes 30 Under 30" curse strikes again. Gökçe Güven, the 26-year-old CEO and founder of fintech startup Kalder, is now facing serious federal charges in the U.S.
What happened?
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Güven allegedly built her startup’s success on a foundation of lies:
Investor Deception: In April 2024, Kalder raised $7 million in seed funding. Prosecutors claim Güven "materially misrepresented" the company’s revenue and client base to secure the funds.Visa Fraud: Beyond the financial scams, she is accused of making false statements to obtain her U.S. visa.Aggravated Identity Theft: The indictment includes charges for the unauthorized use of others' identities to facilitate the fraud.
Kalder marketed itself as a revolutionary rewards and loyalty platform with the slogan: "Turn your rewards into a revenue stream." Now, the only thing being streamed is a federal investigation.
⚠️ The Reality Check:
From SBF to Caroline Ellison, and now Gökçe Güven — this is a stark reminder that high-profile rankings and VC backing are not a substitute for transparency. In the world of Web3 and Fintech, DYOR (Do Your Own Research) is the only way to stay safe.
