tldr; A 68-year-old auditor in Pune lost Rs 24.8 lakh to fraudsters posing as Bitcoin traders. The victim befriended one of the fraudsters on social media and was lured into making investments in digital currency after seeing videos of investors making high returns. The fraudsters provided documents and personal information to gain the victim’s trust. The victim transferred money to the fraudsters’ e-wallet and bank accounts but never received any profits. The fraudsters stopped communicating with the victim, who filed a complaint with the cybercrime police. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities have urged investors to use trusted platforms for cryptocurrency investments.

How can an auditor fall for such a blatant fraud?
Rs. 24.8 lakhs is $29k USD. Not 1.5M.
Sounds like the worst auditor ever. Those sites are always easy to investigate and see they’re scams.
Send me 10BTC and I will send 100, classical textbook scam.
God damn he followed all the red flags !! Unknown guy sends you friend request & talks one into investing which leads to loosing the funds . Classic case in cryptospace.
if this really happened then that “auditor” needs to pack their bags and just find another passion
Auditors are the most scrutinizing people when it comes to detail right? 💀💀
Another case of a seemingly intelligent guy falling victim to social engineering.
With false statements and signs of pig butchering.
Don’t trust anyone you meet online!
I have been seeing much more activity of these kind of pig butchering scams. Guess they really know how to exploit lonely men with those ‘Hot singles near you” DMs
Auditor!!
Next time we see CyberSecurity expert got hacked and lost $$$
People like me with 5 years old brain are doomed 😆
24.8 Lakhs is like $30K, not $1.5M
Nothing new here, just another social engineering fraud with strangers giving investing tips
There are many crypto scams online. One should use tools to check and verify the identity before trading.
That damn Dacre Montgomery is scamming everyone

Something interesting I noticed here, all replies here got downvoted except coinfeeds-bot which got 3 upvotes! Looks like we are fighting against some naughty bots.
If its coming easy, it aint legit !
Not sure when ppl will understand this !
And how’s Rs.24.8 lacs is equivalent to $1.5M USD? It’s close to just $29K USD.
Afaik 24.8 lakh INR = approx 31k USD.
1.5M USD?????
