They look for people who are uneducated but at the same time greedy.

If they were interested enough, they could find the scammers, because fiat leaves a very traceable trail, given that the money was stolen directly from the bank account. I just remembered that not so long ago I watched a movie that deals with this topic, and unfortunately for the scammers, they chose the wrong target in the movie. If the lady in question had someone similar, I have no doubt that she would get her money back.

The Beekeeper

A very harsh and painful experience for this old grandmother, unfortunately these criminals are cruel hearts and do not know mercy even for the elderly who are greater than their mothers.

I don’t know, perhaps this old woman lives alone and there is no children or grandchildren around her until they advise her to avoid these fraudsters. She had to ask for advice from one of its reliable close relatives before rushing to pay the money to these fraudsters.

The government and society must also do something to help this miserable old man, the government must investigate and arrest criminals, and society also should help this old man and make some donations.

Sadly, this one's tough because the victim's bank transfer went straight into a Binance account, and the Bitcoin bought there was sent to a wallet addressof the scammer - tracking that part is nearly impossible. And, there's barely any conversation record since it was all through a phone call. The scammer probably used a throwaway SIM card too.

The trail still exists, and if there is will, there is a way to find the scammer, especially if there are other similar cases (and I believe that this woman is not the only victim). We can assume that these are frauds worth millions of $, and yet such things do not pass under the radar - unless they happen in some third-class and corrupt country.

In any case, it would be better if such things did not happen, but if they do happen, the police and the special services that deal with organized crime must do their best to catch those behind everything.

This story is truly heartbreaking, knowing that a 72-year-old woman lost her entire life savings and inheritance, totaling $224,000, to crypto scammers. They used a deepfake video of Christopher Luxon, the New Zealand Prime Minister, to lure her in. She got interested and responded, which is where things took a dark turn. A scammer, pretending to be Adam Manolas, who claimed to be an expert investment adviser, convinced her to open accounts with Easy Crypto and Binance. She thought her Bitcoin was safe in her Binance wallet, but instead, it was sent to an account controlled by the scammers. Once they emptied her savings, they even took funds that were meant for her grandchildren. In one of their last calls, she overheard him say, "This woman has no money."

It's painful to see how these scammers target older people, especially those who aren't tech-savvy and are more vulnerable to these tricks. I can't even begin to imagine how our granny feels after losing everything she worked for and inherited. Some might find it too much to handle and could even consider taking their own lives because of it. These scammers are truly cruel, and they deserve to rot in hell.
