Virginia Fonseca faces Brazil Federal Police probe over R$22 million transfers

Brazil's Federal Police are investigating influencer Virginia Fonseca for possible financial, fiscal and money‑laundering crimes after Coaf reports flagged atypical movements linked to her businesses. A company in which Fonseca and singer Zé Felipe are partners received about R$22.4 million between March and September 2024, with R$21.4 million transferred through more than 40 PIX operations from a small‑scale firm in Santa Catarina.

The probe also examines related firms, including Talismã Digital and AMP Pay Marketing, and the supplement brand We Pink, whose origins involve former partners and a Chinese investor. Fonseca has denied any illegality, stating the companies are audited by a major accounting firm. The investigation follows earlier scrutiny, such as the CPI das Bets, but no charges have been filed to date.
