🚨 Prisoner orchestrates an attempt to steal $2.7 million in cryptocurrency... from inside his cell!
In Scotland, Robert Barr managed to devise a scheme to steal cryptocurrency worth around £2 million, despite being in prison!
The plan involved sending two people to a cryptocurrency investor’s home to force them to install remote-access software on their computer, which would have allowed Barr to access and transfer the victim’s assets.
But the scheme failed when the homeowners refused to open the door. Messages on Barr’s phone later revealed details of his involvement in the operation.
⚖️ Final sentences:
- 8 years for Robert Barr.
- 5 years for Ian Doyle.
- 4 years for Sean Favier.
💀 Not even prison walls could stop an attempt to carry out one of the strangest cryptocurrency theft schemes!
