In the US, a guy faces up to 20 years in prison for withdrawing $1.7 million through fake checks.

💰 A scheme straight out of a series:

– Opened fictitious accounts

– Submitted fake checks

– Withdrew cash

– Converted to bitcoin

– Profit… until the feds showed up 👮‍♂️

🎯 What is telling:

🔹 Phishing schemes are not new

🔹 And trying to 'clean' everything through crypto is a direct road not to the Maldives, but to federal prison

❗️Lesson: Blockchain is not anonymous.

You are not a movie hacker if you leave traces like a hippo in a swamp.
