The police officer was reported that he used mixers to split the stolen bitcoin into smaller amounts, transferring the coins through crypto exchanges and prepaid cards to block the trace, but at last he was known.

Some people may not know that bitcoin can be traced to someone if the government wants to trace it. This is not the first time such bad actors are known.

It's interesting to see how technology is used to expose a chameleon like this police officer, police by day and a thief at night. This will also serve as a lesson for those who believe they can they can commit fraudulent act with BTC and get away with it. Be wise and desist from fraud!

The email address is such a big teller in this case, I wonder if there are actually people who can fall for a scam like this.

It always helps to stop, take a breath and think before you act. Acting in a haste will very likely lead you to make a mistake and can lead to losses.

Yes, you are correct the email is a big teller but if you are having a very busy day with so much activities and these scammers sends you an email you might just mistakenly click the link and the rest will be stories.

I think being alert and aware at all time is the only possible solution to this.
