Crypto scammer swindles more than $1 million from Bay Area woman
Crypto-crime keeps exploding, often aimed at Americans by a worldwide network of criminals who don't care about whose lives they destroy. One victim, a professional woman, was willing to talk about the financial devastation.
U.S. savings and retirement accounts are prime targets because America is where the money is.
"It's a personal drive for me that I don't want this to happen to others," said Mary, in her sixties, and a professional who oversees that her employer adheres to all applicable laws, regulations, and policies.
Over her life, she amassed a $1.2 million retirement fund, some to pay for her son's college education.
The money is now gone.
"It's absolutely humiliating, devastating, I cried for weeks," she said.
Mary was initially contacted on LinkedIn, Microsoft's business and employment-focused social media platform with over a billion members worldwide.
Last March, Kenneth Ouyang, whose professional LinkedIn post claims he's a Google artificial intelligence and machine learning engineer, contacted Mary and told her he wanted to discuss AI in the context of her industry.
