The FBI's San Francisco division has charged three men with multiple federal felonies, including kidnapping, robbery, and conspiracy, for their alleged involvement in a series of violent interstate cryptocurrency robberies. According to the indictment, the suspects posed as delivery personnel to gain access to victims' homes, where they used firearms, tape, and zip ties to coerce victims into surrendering cryptocurrency account information. In one incident, approximately $6.5 million in crypto assets were transferred to a wallet controlled by the conspirators. All three men are currently in federal custody, awaiting trial on these charges.
