An American tourist within the United Kingdom was reportedly put under drugs who went out as a taxi driver and stole the 123,000 US dollar in Bitcoin on a mobile phone.
According to a report from my London, Jacob Irwin-Cline went to a London bar and kicked several drinks before he called an Uber to bring him home.
CLINE said that he didn’t thoroughly checked the main points of the Uber trip on his phone and with a random private taxi driver who was much like the Uber driver at first glance but drove one other vehicle -a detail that CLINE only discovered after the incident.
Once within the vehicle, said the US tourist, the driving force offered him a cigarette, which, based on CLINE, was probably laced with a rare and robust sedative called Scopolamin. CLINE added that the cigarette felt extremely kind and drained, which left him out for about half-hour before regaining awareness.
Shortly after Cline woke up, the driving force ordered him out of the vehicle. When CLINE went out, the driving force suddenly raced, hit him by automotive and fled his mobile phone, which contained his private keys and access to his crypto accounts.
The unlucky incident is carried out in the course of a recent flood of kidnapping, extortion incidents, armed robberies and ransom attempts which might be geared toward managers of the crypto industry, investors and their families.

On May 3, the daddy of an unnamed crypto exchange owner was liberated by the French police after law enforcement officers had attacked ownership on which the person was captured by organized criminals who demanded a ransom for his release.

The incident occurred in the intense day when the attackers attacked the family and tried to force them right into a parked vehicle. However, the masked attackers were in a position to fight noizat daughter and one other person.
The increase in violent attacks against crypto investors and specialists has led to a rise in personal security, including inquiries about bodyguards and personal security measures for individuals who are prone to be victims.
