Crypto sleuth ZachXBT, that most dashing of modern adventurers, has uncovered a dazzling theft: on the day in August when nature presumably sighed in disgust at human folly, a hapless soul parted with 783 Bitcoins-worth a princely $91 million, henceforth lost to the ruthless embrace of a social engineering scam.
Ever the optimist survives this escapade like one holds to a bottomless nosebag of Tory promises. Indeed, social engineering scams are proliferating with glee, as if trained by some devilish Maude or Mr. Creosote of the digital age, ensnaring every poor soul who yet exercises too much faith in the good nature of mankind.
ZachXBT’s Sherlockian Revelation: The $91 Million Crypto Caper
In a most artful de-briefing, positing on X (formerly Twitter), our hero disclosed the scoundrels’ masquerade: agents pretending to be the salt of the earth from both a crypto exchange and a hardware wallet purveyor.
Masked trickery of the first order, no doubt. The misbegotten treasure found temporary refuge in Wasabi Wallet, a haven for Bitcoin shrouded in privacy. ZachXBT, ever faithful, provided the grand theft transaction hash: da598f2a941ee3c249a3c11e5e171e186a08900012f6aad26e6d11b8e8816457.
Moreover, to add a flourish of ingenuity, the lifting was pinned to the address bc1qyxyk4qgyrkx4rjwsuevug04wahdk6uf95mqlej. Ebulliently, ZachXBT unfurled blockchain maps depicting the labyrinthine channels where these funds gallantly cavorted through-touching the realms of multiple Bitcoin mixers at every turn.
“Curiously,” ZachXBT quipped, “this larceny transpired on the one-year anniversary of the £243 million Genesis Creditor heist-a fine gimmick, akin to ringing champagne corks on a tragic milestone!”

Like all sagacious guides in fables of yore, ZachXBT counseled that skepticism should be our default virtue, questioning every petulant entreaty as if it emerged from the guile of a Dickensian architect of deceit. And thus, we are encouraged to resist!
It is a nation aflame with social engineering antics, just as the world is bereft of good manners. Great heavens, the barbarity! Consider the rascal portraying a senior UK police officer: an audacious assault that netted a brazen $2.8 million in Bitcoin. Alas, the tragedy: under the pretence of protecting personal effects from imagined villains, the discerning victim surrendered the sacred seed phrase, leading them into financial purgatory.
“Justice reminds us: scam artists, like Bolsheviks or Tories, are infinitely adaptable,” a sententious chorus of authorities chimed. “Their ever-voluminous bag of tricks is not just for the blossoming capitalist but includes guile advanced enough to mislead Mr. Waugh himself. Guard your assets, your pieces of mind, and trust, above all, your gut!”
Indeed, suspicious scampishness has even besmirched reputable publications like WalesOnline, bedecking them with unsubstantial offerings, some fashioned from imitation BBC footage. And this is but the latest chapter in the ascendancy of the deepfake ruse…
