This case reveals a growing trend: crypto scams are becoming more sophisticated by focusing on trust rather than technical exploits. Scammers used gradual “grooming” tactics, building emotional connections before introducing financial discussions, a strategy commonly known as pig-butchering.

By the time victims were asked to invest, they already felt comfortable and in control, making it easier to send funds without suspicion. The lesson is clear—unsolicited messages, “guaranteed returns,” and requests to transfer crypto to unknown wallets are major red flags that should never be ignored.

I'm talking about investing in shitcoins in general. After all, a maximum of half an hour of research is enough to be able to determine whether something is just a scam or has market potential.

Mówię tu w ogóle o inwestowaniu w shitcoiny. Przecież wystarczy maksimum pół godziny badań, żeby być w stanie sprawdzić czy coś jest zwykłym scamem, czy ma potencjał rynkowy.
