North American authority seem be among the most proactive in the world with regards to dealing with individual ICOs or Cryptocurrency. The recent example of this comes from Canada where the man who is behind the Plexcoin is now facing jail time while an investigation against him is still ongoing.
The Quebec Superior Court sentenced Dominic Lacroix and DL Innov Inc. on Friday to two months imprisonment and fines totaling $110,000 for contempt of court, the maximum penalties applicable by the law.

Policing icos is a problem currently, I think the community needs to look at ways to validate what looks to be geniune from what is clearly scams. I have heard that people are buying white papers, setting up icos and doing a runner.
