User Drained of $71K
🔥 User Drained of $71K
A crypto user lost $71,150 on August 29 to scammers impersonating Kraken support. The victim’s friend traced the theft on-chain — and two days later, the scammers called back to brag, revealing more than they meant to.
The victim claimed they had received a fake email mimicking [email protected], pointing to a “secure portal”. The same day, the victim’s Google account was hacked — a passkey he never created was added, and his password was changed.
Two days later, the scammer called back to taunt him — even naming the exact amount stolen without being told. He also flashed a screenshot claiming a $2.5M BTC balance, but the math didn’t add up, suggesting it was fake or outdated. He admitted to scamming others too, hinting at more people involved, and claimed to have run similar scams on TikTok targeting victims in Australia.
