Just so that I can get a fair comparison, please now list every theft and scam that has happened with U.S. dollars in the past month.

Is it accurate to say that "take the money and run" is "the bitcoin way"?

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that take the money and run is the criminal way, and that criminals will take any thing of value that they can get their hands on regardless of whether it is U.S. dollars, bitcoins, cars, artwork, jewelry, or children?
