Crypto sleuth ZachXBT has uncovered a British-based scammer known as @ape_31/@60711 who has stolen $650,000 worth of cryptocurrency over the past year. The scammer uses a demo trading account to sell fake copy trading intel and has deceived over 250 people with various tactics such as fake wallet screenshots and proxy investing scams. ZachXBT has identified the scammer's location as likely being in Britain and has shared his voice publicly in an effort to identify him. Additionally, ZachXBT's previous investigation helped in the arrest of two Miami-based hackers who stole $243 million in Bitcoin. One user criticized crypto exchange Bybit for its demo trading dashboard, stating that it allows scammers to use it for criminal activities.
