🔴 Canadian pensioner lost $160,000 to crypto scammers

⠀

Even in 2025, old tricks still work — especially on those who know little about crypto.

⠀

• In British Columbia, a 70-year-old man was convinced that his social security number was 'compromised'

• Scammers posed as police officers and instructed him to transfer his savings… through a crypto ATM

• The scheme lasted several years — gradually, the pensioner was swindled out of $160K

• Police say: the elderly are the most vulnerable group, especially when it comes to 'government agencies' and 'savings protection'

⠀

📉 Similar cases across Canada have increased — the RCMP reminded that they never ask to transfer money through Bitcoin or crypto services

⠀

If someone calls and demands 'transfer money to a safe account' — it is 100% a scam. Don't let yourself be fooled.
