"The police on the phone said my son was arrested for drug dealing; if I don’t pay in Bitcoin, he will be shot..." In a corner of a convenience store in Spokane, Washington, 68-year-old Lin, an elderly overseas Chinese, trembles as she feeds $280,000 of her retirement savings into a Bitcoin ATM. She doesn't know that this machine, flashing blue light, has been tampered with by criminals — the actual coin price is $60,000, but the screen shows an exorbitant price of $540,000, and the unscrupulous clerk pretends to stock shelves while tacitly allowing the fraud!
9-fold profit bloodsucking chain exposed
When Spokane police stormed the crime den, the ledger recorded astonishing dark secrets:
Specially targeting elderly Chinese: Scammers impersonate embassy personnel and police, threatening 'If you don’t buy coins, your whole family will be deported'.
ATM manipulation double kill: Transaction fees first scrape 25%, then alter system to show 9 times premium.
Money laundering faster than lightning: Victims' deposits split to wallets in Nigeria and Cambodia within 10 seconds.
Even more shocking is that the scam gang buys off convenience store employees — $5000 divided for each successful scam, with unscrupulous staff intentionally blocking warning signs when teaching the elderly how to operate!
Citywide crackdown triggers triple kill
Mayor Woodward smashing the first ATM video went viral last night, behind it is a threefold strangulation order:
Seized 37 bloodsucking ATMs citywide, disassembled to find built-in remote control chips.
FBI directly attacking 'phantom companies': Fake operator CoinNow's warehouse seized $13 million in cash.
New law sets life and death line: Mandatory palm vein scanning + single transaction limit of $1000, facial alert systems installed in Chinese communities.
An undercover officer held up a confiscated scam script and angrily denounced: 'They teach operators to learn a Chinese crying tone, specifically targeting the elderly shopping for groceries on Tuesday mornings!'
Blood and tears experience: Four ways to identify pig-butchering scams
Chinese-American detective Chen Zhixiong announces anti-fraud iron law:
Deadly verbal cues: Real police never ask for Bitcoin; hang up immediately if they mention 'secure account' or 'bail money'.
Price death red line: Before purchasing at the ATM, compare with CoinMarketCap's real-time price; a price difference over $100 is a scam.
Counter staff alarm: Require employees to show work badges and record the question: 'How much is the transaction fee for this machine?' Those who stutter should leave immediately.
Gold freezes in 10 minutes: Upon discovering a scam, immediately press the ATM alarm button (the red button on the machine), nationwide wanted order activates in 60 seconds.
"Convenience store employee recounts: When teaching an elderly lady to buy coins, I kept my thumb firmly on the warning message..." The moment the victim's $280,000 vanished is revealed in surveillance footage!
