A 71 year old woman being scammed through a BTC ATM… wrong on so many levels.
tldr; A 71-year-old woman in Westlake was scammed into depositing $5,500 into a cryptocurrency ATM despite warnings from police and store employees. The scammer, posing as a bank fraud investigator, convinced her to act under the pretense of protecting her savings from theft. The scam began with a fake virus alert on her computer. Law enforcement froze the scammer’s crypto wallet, but it is unclear if the victim will recover her funds. This highlights the growing issue of cryptocurrency scams targeting vulnerable individuals.
