A Hong Kong woman, 60, lost $2.7M to a crypto scam. After an online encounter with a self-styled investment expert, she was funneled to a fake crypto platform and made repeated deposits from April 14 to September 22. The platform's demand for extra funds — framed as proof her account wasn't tied to money laundering — led her to call police. The case is classified as fraud by deception; no one has been arrested.
