Odaily Planet Daily News: Data released by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) shows that the financial losses suffered by consumers in Bitcoin ATM fraud have increased dramatically. Since 2020, this amount of loss has increased nearly tenfold. The latest data released by the FTC focuses on the fact that Bitcoin ATM fraud caused more than $65 million in fraud losses in the first six months of 2024 alone. What is particularly striking is that the risk of seniors over 60 years old being harmed by these scams is more than three times that of young adults. From a full-year perspective, the average loss reported by consumers in the first half of this year was as high as $10,000. (FTC)
