feat(sources): Wayback pass, automatic trimming, detention rule, ten cases re-sourced

Browse Source 
Second and third rounds on the dossier pipeline, reviewed locally before commit.

Retrieval
- wayback_pass.py: retries every BLOCKED/DEAD/THIN/ERROR linked source through
  the Wayback Machine; blocks carry the snapshot date, archive URL and the live
  verdict. 143 slots retried: 93 fetched, 37 no snapshot, 12 script shells, 1 PDF.
- fetch_sources.py: fetch_wayback() helper.
- add_extra_sources.py: files staged extra_* finds (web search, not on the DB
  record) into the store with a provenance note.
- Cases re-sourced by web search: 248 (Oslo: Document.no, Avisa Oslo, NRK; the
  linked Le Parisien piece is case 242 and is marked OFF-CASE), 258 Kharkiv,
  260 Singapore, 358 Bangkok, 365 Las Vegas, 388 Verneuil-sur-Seine, 390 Zoersel,
  430 Homestead. 341 of 364 cases now hold a fetched article; 11, 66 and 399
  have no public text source (podcast, police video, direct victim report).

Trimming
- auto_trim.py: case-anchored furniture cut for UNTRIMMED blocks. Finds the body
  run that mentions the case, merges across subheadings and short furniture
  gaps, drops teasers, share bars, date/URL/caption lines and subscription
  pitches; refuses pages with no record term or almost no body. 302 blocks
  trimmed; 16 left on auto-trim-review.md (7 OFF-CASE suspects). Every cut is
  labelled AUTO-TRIMMED, UNREVIEWED in the dossier; the full extract stays in
  staging/. Decisions with anchors in trim-decisions-auto.json.
- build_cases.py / verify_all.py: banners for auto-trimmed and archived blocks,
  staged-file check extended to Wayback blocks, flag legend under the record.

Detention rule
- README "Definitions": the DB field `kidnappings` is the DETENTION violence
  type (victim, guard, staff or relative held to force submission or execute
  the theft), distinct from the Kidnapping scenario (taken away and held).
- detention-flag-review.md / detention-flag-corrections.json: 40 records
  reviewed with evidence; 30 set-to-1 proposals accepted by the owner on
  2026-09-06 (listed in corrections-approved.md), 10 still open.
- apply_detention_wording.py: "Violence Used" in the 70 reviewed summaries now
  names detention explicitly (62 of 70 labelled), supported by the summary's
  own text; idempotent; supersedes the batch scripts' wording.

Worklist and docs
- sofia-worklist.md: 248 decisions, detention rule item replacing the old
  "no abduction" item, fresh-search section for the textless cases.
- README-START-HERE.md: progress notes, run commands, next steps.
- Bug fixed in passing: Wayback blocks stored in-memory text with carriage
  returns; now stored as read back from disk.

verify_all.py PASSES (2321 checks).

## Definitions: detention (violence type) vs Kidnapping (scenario)
Added 2026-09-06 after the flag turned out to be mislabelled. The rule for every file,
summary and correction from now on:
**Detention** is a VIOLENCE TYPE. The DB flag `kidnappings` (sheet column "Kidnappings") is
the detention flag and should be renamed `detention` on the DB side. It is 1 when the
attackers had physical control of the victim at any point, in any place, for any length of
time: tied, taped, handcuffed or zip-tied; locked in a room or vehicle; held at gunpoint
while forced to unlock or transfer; taken away in a car; held under a fake arrest; kept for
hours or days. It is 0 when control was never gained: a snatch or mugging in passing, a
break-in of empty premises, threats or extortion at a distance, a plot foiled before contact,
an attempt the victim fled or fought off before being restrained. Judgment line: a victim
held at gunpoint for the minutes it takes to force a transfer counts as detained; a victim
punched and left within seconds does not. Who was held does not change the flag: if detention
was used on anyone to force submission or to execute the theft (guards, staff, a concierge, a
relative), the flag is 1 even when the record's named victim was absent (owner's rule, 2026-09-06).
**Kidnapping** is a SCENARIO, one of eleven attack patterns. It means the victim was taken
from where they were to a place under the attackers' control and held there, usually for a
ransom or a forced transfer. Express Kidnapping is the short, ATM-style variant. A Kidnapping
scenario always involves detention, and usually other violence types too: weapon threats,
assault, torture, drugging. Detention also occurs in other scenarios without making them
kidnappings: a family tied up in a Home Invasion, a P2P buyer handcuffed in a hotel room, a
fake arrest under Authority Misuse, a victim zip-tied in a Dodged Attack that was interrupted.
**Wording in summaries.** "Violence Used" names the violence types, and names detention
explicitly whenever it occurred ("Detention — held at gunpoint for about an hour"). The
words kidnapped / abducted are reserved for a victim being taken away; a victim held where
they were is "held", "detained", "tied up", not "kidnapped". Foiled attempts say
"No detention — the attempt was foiled" only when the source says so.
Per-case flag review against this rule: merge-output/detention-flag-review.md (proposals for
Sofia, with the evidence line for each). The DB export stays untouched.

- verify_all.py PASSES (1836 checks).
Next step for the 73 cases with no fetched article: wayback-availability.json lists a
Wayback Machine snapshot for 73 of the 98 failed URL slots (about 70 cases). fetch_sources.py
has no archive path yet; add one that labels the block as an archived snapshot with its
timestamp, so provenance stays honest.
Second pass, same day: Wayback Machine retrieval and automatic trimming.
- wayback_pass.py retries every linked source the live fetch could not read (BLOCKED,
DEAD, THIN, ERROR) through the Wayback Machine. Run from merge-output/:
python wayback_pass.py
Result over 143 failed slots: 93 FETCHED, 37 no snapshot, 12 THIN (script shell), 1 PDF.
Every archived block is labelled with the snapshot date and archive URL in the dossier
and keeps the live verdict in its note. 341 of 364 cases now hold a fetched article;
3 cases still have no article text at all: 11 (podcast only), 66 (police Facebook video only),
399 (direct victim report to Gart Research, no public source). The other seven were sourced by
web search on 2026-09-06; add_extra_sources.py files such finds into the store.
- auto_trim.py cuts site furniture from UNTRIMMED blocks: it finds the paragraph run that
mentions the case (terms from the DB record), widens it across short gaps so ledes and
closing sentences survive, and drops teasers, share bars, date/URL/caption lines and
subscription pitches. Run from merge-output/:
python auto_trim.py (add --reset to redo every automatic cut from staging/)
Result: 288 blocks in 252 cases trimmed, 1.44M -> 0.99M chars. These are MACHINE cuts:
the dossier banner says AUTO-TRIMMED, UNREVIEWED, and the full extract stays in staging/.
Decisions with anchors are in trim-decisions-auto.json.
- auto-trim-review.md lists the 16 blocks left UNTRIMMED and the 15 trimmed on a weak
anchor. The 7 OFF-CASE entries (no record term on the page) are wrong-source candidates;
case 248 is on it, which matches the known Le Parisien mismatch.
- The trimmer removes furniture only. It does NOT separate other incidents inside a
round-up article; that is still a read-through job (see the round-up bucket on the
worklist).
- Case 248: Oslo sources found by web search on 2026-09-05 and filed as extra_1..5 (see the worklist entry). verify_all.py PASSES (2321 checks). Not committed yet; review before pushing.

## Detention flag (`kidnappings`) — accepted 2026-09-06
Rule: README-START-HERE.md, "Definitions". The field is the detention flag; rename it `detention`
on the website. Evidence per case: merge-output/detention-flag-review.md.
→ **Set `kidnappings` to 1 on these records:** 4, 19, 25, 28, 29, 41, 43, 46, 63, 64, 82, 139, 143, 147, 152, 167, 169, 171, 180, 181, 182, 183, 200, 209, 229, 253, 301, 353, 380, 419.
Rule clarified the same day: detention used on anyone (guards, staff, a concierge, a relative) to
force submission or execute the theft counts as 1, whether or not the record's named victim was
present. Case 301 (guards tied up) is therefore in the list above.
Still open, not yet decided: the 1-to-0 proposals (124, 242, 273, 413, 422, 423, and nulls 354, 355)
and the two CHECK items (215, 298).

# Detention flag review (DB field `kidnappings`)
Rule: README-START-HERE.md, section "Definitions". The flag is 1 when the attackers had physical control
of the victim at any point (tied, locked in, held at gunpoint through a forced transfer, taken away, fake
arrest); 0 when control was never gained (snatch, break-in of empty premises, foiled or fought-off attempt).
Nothing here is applied to the DB. Every line quotes the record or an article already in the case file.
**Decision 2026-09-06 (database owner):** every 0-to-1 proposal below is ACCEPTED, 301 included after the rule was
clarified: detention used on anyone (guards, staff, a relative) to force submission or execute the
theft counts as 1, whether or not the record's named victim was present. The 1-to-0 proposals and the two CHECK items are still open. Status per case is in
detention-flag-corrections.json; the accepted set is also listed in corrections-approved.md.
Not reviewed one by one: the 219 records already at 1 in the Kidnapping, Home Invasion, Authority Misuse,
Malicious Invitation and Express Kidnapping scenarios, whose own descriptions show the victim held; only the
flag=1 records in Dodged Attack, Costly Fame, Armed Robbery and P2P were read (all 20 listed below or confirmed).

## Flag 0 confirmed as 0 (attempts without control) — no change
- **case 30** (Dodged Attack): four men found with zip ties and duct tape; no attack took place
- **case 67** (Dodged Attack): conspiracy uncovered by the FBI; no source shows the two gained control of him
- **case 72** (Dodged Attack): arrested before the kidnapping

- **case 68** (P2P Trade Gone Wrong): held at gunpoint and forced to transfer at the meeting point

- **case 293** (Home Invasion): family held at gunpoint (same)

text, label it so), or link the LocalBitcoins forum thread where the victim posted, if you know it.
- **case 66** (East Lansdowne BTM, May 2020): the only source is the East Lansdowne Police Facebook
video. Search Delaware County local press (Delco Times, 6abc, NBC10) for "bitcoin ATM" "East
Lansdowne" May 2020, or ask the police department for the incident number.

parents in their 40s, children 4/8/12 taped up, mother threatened with being shot, crypto demanded,
four men from Sweden aged 18-22), Avisa Oslo 06.08.2025 (police statement, incident reported 23:53

straw men rented a hideout flat), Document.no 04.09.2025 (nine charged for aggravated robbery and
deprivation of liberty, three adults and two minors bound, one threatened with a firearm, one
subjected to serious violence, two arrested abroad on international warrants). Decisions for you:
(a) add these URLs to the record; (b) `date` = August 6 but police log the call at 23:53 on
**5 August** — pick one and say "night of 5-6 August"; (c) the record's "Ledger wallet" search and
"handler / third-party DB leak" notes do not appear in any Oslo source found — the handler detail
is a Suresnes fact and probably leaked in from the wrong article; Document.no instead says police
suspect the job was ordered by people close to the family. Confirm or drop; (d) Document.no says
three adults were bound per police, while the record says a family with three children — the

Stupidity or Greed? Why Steal Bitcoin ATM?
Written by Nina Lyonformer writerReviewed by Cyril Gilsonformer editor
On November 3, two robbers stole a Lamassu Bitcoin ATM at the Village Smoke Shop in Atlanta, Georgia, according to local news website Clatl.com.
According to Atlanta’s Police Detective Scott Bowers, the thieves got away with Bitcoin ATM (also called BTM) filled with about US$2,000 as it was recently emptied. What’s more is that one of the perpetrators fired a gun shot, though luckily no one was injured.
It seems that the thieves wanted to get their hands on this machine in particular. Amanda McCollum, an employee in Midtown’s Village Smoke Shop, witnessed the crime. She saw that the suspects “walked in, went straight to [the Bitcoin ATM], took it and only it, and walked out.”
However, stealing a Bitcoin ATM is not a good idea. While a Lamassu Bitcoin ATM itself is valued at US$7,000, the criminals would not be able to re-sell it because it is registered to the buyer with serial numbers linking them to the original owners. Moreover, no one except the owner will be able to get any bitcoins from the machines while most BTMs don’t hold a lot of cash inside as a rule.

Regular, cash dispensing ATMs have been a prime target for robberies since the technology was first born. But ATMs that dispense crypto-currency have had a more peaceful existence with no reported thefts. That is, until now. Late last month, two Bitcoin ATMs were stolen from two different businesses in Amsterdam.
Martijn Wismeijer, founder of the first “bitcoin atm collective,” Mr.Bitcoin, installed one of the machines that was stolen. “About two weeks ago, at Warries Thai food the door was forced and [thieves] removed the BitAccess ATM. This ATM was not owned by Mr.Bitcoin but we know the owner of the restaurant.” He went on to say, “The other ATM at Hofje van Wijs was a General Bytes unit, owned and installed by MrBitcoin. The burglars forced their way into the venue at 6:55 AM and also went for the safe, cash register and of course, the Bitcoin ATM.”

Dieven stelen 2000 euro uit bitcoinautomaat in Delft | Binnenland | AD.nl
Dieven hebben maandagnacht 'zijn' bitcoin wisselautomaat ontvreemd uit stadscafé De Waag aan de Markt. Klanten van het café konden in de automaat hun bankbiljetten omwisselen voor virtuele bitcoins, waarmee onder meer aan de bar betaald kon worden. In het apparaat zat ten tijde van de diefstal zo'n 2000 euro aan bankbiljetten.
,,De dieven hebben er behoorlijk wat moeite voor moeten doen,'' zegt directeur Robert Nederhoed van leverancier Bitmymoney. ,,De automaat van 50 kilo zat verankerd aan de grond en de muur, maar dat was kennelijk geen belemmering.'' De diefstal was een gerichte slag, betoogt hij. "Uit de rest van het café is niets meegenomen. De inbrekers kwamen alleen voor de automaat.''
De ondernemer denkt niet dat er snel weer een automaat terugkomt. "Het apparaat is meer als ludiek geintje bedoeld. Wel een duur geintje, want een nieuwe kost me al gauw 4000 euro. Ik denk niet dat het die investering waard is.''
Wie zelf eens wil experimenteren met bitcoins moet zijn ogen en oren goed de kost geven. Nederhoed looft 10 bitcoins uit voor een tip die leidt naar de opsporing van de automaat.

Durham man says 'enemies' called 911 to report false hostage situation
DURHAM, N.C. (WNCN) – A Durham man is claiming that he’s the latest victim of “swatting” after someone anonymously called police to report a false hostage situation at his home on Monday morning.
Police responded to the 1300 block of Whispering Oaks Lane in response to call about a hostage situation at one of the homes on the street. The call came in around 9 a.m., police said.
The 911 caller told dispatch he had already shot someone and was holding others hostage in the house.Listen to the 911 call at the top of this story
The caller also said he had explosives by the front door.
“By my voice, you can tell I’m not in a mental health state,” the caller said. “I’m all over the place. I don’t know what to do.”
The caller then began to make demands.
“If I don’t get $60,000, I’m going to blow the whole (expletive) block up,” the caller said. “If I see any police coming toward the front door who aren’t handling a bag full of money, I’ll shoot them on sight.”
The caller also tells the dispatcher he shot the victim 15 times with an assault rifle.
Authorities staged nearby on Cardinal Lake Drive while they worked to determine what was happening.
Police, EMS, a mobile command truck and armed officers in bulletproof vests were all at the scene. When authorities approached the home, the owner came out and told them that the call was false and that they never made any call to police and there was no hostage situation at the home.
Homeowner Jameson Lopp told CBS North Carolina that he works for a software company and has made several online, anonymous “enemies” and that he believes one of them was getting “revenge.”
“I am not intimated by this. This is actually, from my perspective evidence that the people who want to do this do not have the guts to say anything to my face. They don’t have the guts to come here and actually tell me what their problem is with me,” said Lopp.
Durham police have not confirmed this to be a swatting case. At last check, police have not been able to track the caller.

Four arrested over Taiwan’s first bitcoin robbery | Arab News
Bitcoin is a virtual currency created from computer code that allows anonymous transactions and its value has soared since it came into being in 2009. (AFP)
TAIWAN: Taiwan police have arrested four men over a bitcoin robbery worth 5 million Taiwanese dollars in what they said was the first case of its kind on the island.
Bitcoin is a virtual currency created from computer code that allows anonymous transactions and its value has soared since it came into being in 2009.
Taiwan police said three men in their early twenties lured a man surnamed Tai to the central city of Taichung, pretending to be interested in buying bitcoins.
After Tai showed proof of his bitcoins on his phone, the scammers assaulted him and his friend, then transferred 18 bitcoins worth 5 million Taiwanese dollars from Tai’s account via his phone.
The suspects attempted to pass off the heist as a drunken row by forcing the victim to drink Kaoliang, a strong Taiwanese liquor, Taichung city police said in a statement.
Police arrived at the scene after receiving a call about a dispute and one man was detained. The other two had fled.
“The police saw bloodstains at the scene ... after further investigation, it was discovered to be a bitcoin virtual currency robbery,” the statement released Wednesday said.
It described the case, which happened earlier this month, as “the first domestic case of bitcoin robbery.”
The two other suspects were later arrested, one on the outlying island of Kinmen where he had gone to escape police.
The fourth man, surnamed Shih, believed to be the mastermind behind the robbery, was also detained.
Britain saw its first Bitcoin armed robbery last month, according to reports, in which a virtual currency trader and his wife were threatened with a gun.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are independent of governments and banks and use blockchain technology, where encrypted digital coins are created by supercomputers.
But calls are mounting for virtual currencies to be regulated, and prices have fluctuated in recent months amid concerns over tightened control.

A Bitcoin deal at a Miami Whole Foods ends in a shooting | Miami Herald
A shooting in downtown Miami that left one man badly injured and under arrest was a Bitcoin deal gone bad, police said.
The blown-up business deal last week, according to police, involved two men — Ryan Rice and an unidentified companion — who started the day in Gainesville with $30,000 cash and a plan to turn it into $35,000 worth of Bitcoin.
Rice told police he was concerned about his safety because of the large amount of cash involved. That premonition proved prophetic, police said.
Shortly after the pair met up at a Whole Foods with the Bitcoin dealer, whom police have not identified, the transaction turned violent. A fourth man, Marcarrous Clark, rushed them in a parking garage and a struggle erupted for the cash. Rice, police say, shot Clark but he has not been charged. Police are treating the shooting as self-defense though the investigation is ongoing.
"One guy said, 'Back off, I have a weapon,' " said Miami police spokeswoman Kiara Delva. "The other guy charged at the victim anyway."
Clark was still hospitalized Monday, almost a week after the incident. He's been charged with strong-arm attempted robbery.
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that works without a centralized banking system. Its value fluctuates because of a number of factors, including how it's perceived by the public, retailers and currency speculators. When last week's deal went sour, Bitcoin was trading at about $7,000 a coin. On Monday, its value had increased to almost $8,000.
According to Miami police, the deal was intentionally set up to happen at a "public place" — in this case, the Whole Foods supermarket at 299 SE Third St.
Inside Rice's vehicle in the parking garage, Rice handed over the $30,000, according to Clark's arrest report. At that point, the Bitcoin transfer was supposed to be made over the Internet. When the Bitcoin seller told Rice and his associate that he was afraid to walk to his vehicle with so much money, they agreed to escort him.
But while walking through a stairwell in the garage, Clark appeared and grabbed at a backpack with the cash in it. When Rice pulled a gun and warned Clark he would shoot, the arrest report says, Clark still charged at him. Rice fired his weapon. Clark stumbled about two blocks before collapsing. Miami Fire Rescue took him to the hospital. His condition Monday was unknown.
Local streets were blocked off until police were certain there wasn't a gunman on the loose, which snarled traffic in the area for hours.
What cops say happened during a Maserati chase on I-95 in Miami-Dade and Broward
A Saturday morning police chase that spanned southern Broward and North Miami-Dade counties ended with one crash, three people arrested and four people — those three and a Miami-Dade police officer — being taken to a hospital, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
All four had injuries that FHP described as “non-life threatening.”

Gang steals $1.9m in Dubai Bitcoin scam - Arabian Business: Latest News on the Middle East, Real Estate, Finance, and More
An Asian gang which stole AED7m ($1.9m) in an armed robbery related to a Bitcoin scam has been arrested by Dubai Police.
The gang, led by a Gulf national, assaulted and robbed two Asian brothers at gun point on April 25 after luring them into a trading office, which they had seized from the owner, with the aim of selling them Bitcoin for the agreed amount.

Authorities said they had identified the Gulf gang leader just four hours after the incident, which helped them arrest the 10 members in as fast as 48 hours, despite initial lack of evidence.
The money was then returned to the brothers.
Dubai Police chief Abdullah Al Marri urged traders to follow the right legal procedures when trading in order to avoid being targeted by gangs.
Major general Khalil Al Mansoori praised the team’s fast response time and gave thanks to Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman Police for their cooperation in solving the case.
He said artificial intelligence integrated in Dubai Police’s most recent security systems helped solve the case.

Bitcoin veri contro banconote false: due arresti a Milano per truffa - la Repubblica
Iscriviti gratis alla newsletter di Repubblica Milano
Soldi falsi in cambio di Bitcoin. Due persone - un serbo di 33 anni e un cubano di 35 - sono stati arrestati perché hanno tentato di spacciare a un 22enne una valigia piena di soldi falsi. Solo che il ragazzo si è accorto del raggiro poco prima di trasferire i Bitcoin sul conto dei finti clienti e, quando ha rifiutato di procedere all'operazione, è stato aggredito dai due uomini e da una donna di cui si sono perse le tracce.
La vicenda risale al tardo pomeriggio di ieri. A dare l'allarme, attorno alle 19.15, è stato l'inquilino della palazzina di viale Abruzzi all'interno della quale si svolgeva l'incontro. Il cittadino ha chiamato la polizia dopo aver sentito delle urla e un colpo di pistola (che poi si rivelata una scacciacani). Altri hanno segnalato una mazzetta di 500 euro sul marciapiedi, una parte dei soldi fac-simile usati per la truffa. Quando, poi, gli agenti sono arrivati hanno trovato il 22enne, cioè la vittima, con il naso rotto e vari traumi in faccia e il cubano con un trauma cranico: entrambi sono finiti al Fatebenefratelli, il primo con una prognosi di 14 giorni e il secondo di 7.

Gericht in Österreich beginnt Verfahren gegen Krypto-Räuberbande
In Österreich müssen sich fünf Männer wegen des Diebstahls von umgerechnet 210.000 Euro an Kryptowährung vor Gericht verantworten.
In der österreichischen Stadt Wels müssen sich fünf Männer wegen eines Überfalls und Raubes von umgerechnet 210.000 Euro vor Gericht verantworten, meldete OÖNachrichten am 27. März.
Bei dem Drahtzieher soll es sich um einen 21-jährigen Oberösterreicher handeln, der den Überfall gemeinsam mit seinem bereits vorbestraften Vater geplant habe. Dieser werde aufgrund seiner kriminellen Vorgeschichte in einem gesonderten Verfahren verfolgt, schreibt die Nachrichtenseite.
Den an dem Überfall beteiligten fünf Männern wird erpresserische Entführung, schwerer Raub, schwere Nötigung und schwere Erpressung vorgeworfen. Einige der nach Aussagen ihrer Verteidiger im Wesentlichen geständigen Männer geben an, nur von einer Schuldeneintreibungsaktion ausgegangen zu sein.
Einer der Männer hatte offenbar vor dem Überfall bei dem beraubten Krypto-Trader einen fünfstelligen Betrag angelegt und verloren. Diese “Schulden” habe er eintreiben wollen, die Sache habe dann aber eine nach seinen Worten “furchtbare Eigendynamik” entwickelt.
Bei dem Überfall gaben sich die Täter als Paketzusteller aus, um sich Zugang zur Wohnung zu verschaffen. Den Trader fesselten sie in einem Abstellraum mit Klebeband an einen Stuhl und brachten dessen Lebensgefährtin mit ihrem ebenfalls anwesenden Baby in das Schlafzimmer, wo sie ebenfalls gefesselt wurde.
Während des eineinhalb Stunden dauernden Überfalls wurden die Opfer mit dem Messer bedroht, um die Zugangscodes zu diversen Online-Börsen zu bekommen. Neben Kryptowährung im Wert von 210.000 Euro, das einer der Täter transferieren konnte, erbeuteten die Männer auch Schmuck, Goldmünzen, Elektronikgeräte sowie teure Markenkleidung.
Zu Überfällen von Krypto-Dieben kommt es immer wieder. Bei einem Überfall im letzten Jahr war ein russischer Geschäftsmann als Geisel genommen worden, bis dieser sich an seinem Computer anmeldete und umgerechnet rund 81.000 Euro in Bitcoin an seine Angreifer überwies. Ein anderer russischer Investor war bei einem ähnlichen Krypto-Raub um umgerechnet 348.000 Euro bestohlen worden.

District of Massachusetts | Northborough Man Pleads Guilty to Aiding Romance and Lottery Schemes Targeting Elderly | United States Department of Justice
BOSTON – A Northborough man pleaded guilty today in federal court in Worcester to his role in more than $600,000 in fraud schemes targeting elderly victims, and agreeing to launder the proceeds of such schemes and other criminal activity.
Austin Nedved, 29, pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting wire fraud and money laundering conspiracy. U.S. District Court Judge Timothy S. Hillman scheduled sentencing for April 7, 2020. Nedved is in custody serving a sentence for a separate fraud conviction in the Eastern District of Kentucky.
Nedved admitted that he ran a business in which he bought and sold digital currencies, including Bitcoin, for cash. Nedved advertised his services under the screen name “USMC1991” over LocalBitcoins.com and Paxful.com, two online businesses that matched Bitcoin buyers and sellers and facilitated their transactions.
From at least 2017 through 2019, Nedved aided and abetted romance and lottery schemes targeting vulnerable victims. In romance schemes, victims are targeted to send money abroad to people they believe to be romantic interests, while in lottery schemes victims are convinced that they can obtain lottery winnings or sizeable government grants by forwarding cash for administrative fees or expenses to the fraudsters. Despite knowing or being willfully blind to the fact that his customers were fraud victims, Nedved sold Bitcoin to them so that they could send money overseas to the fraudsters.
In late 2017, an individual posing as “Jonathan G.” led a 78-year old victim to believe over social media that he was a Weston, Mass. businessman who owned an oil company. Without ever meeting “Jonathan G.” in person, the victim fell in love and agreed to marry him. “Jonathan G.” then falsely told the victim that his oil company had experienced an accident abroad in which people had died, and that he needed money to settle obligations arising from the accident with a foreign government. “Jonathan G.” claimed that until he did so, he would not be able to return to the United States to marry the victim. “Jonathan G.” told the victim to pay him via Bitcoin. The victim, who had never before purchased digital currency, agreed to send him money and contacted Nedved by phone and text message in Massachusetts to arrange a cash-for-Bitcoin transaction.
On June 25, 2018, in a parking lot in Kittery, Maine, the victim gave Nedved a cashier’s check to purchase approximately $100,000 in bitcoin. Nedved then released approximately $100,000 in Bitcoin, less his commission, to a Bitcoin wallet controlled by “Jonathan G.” When Nedved accepted $100,000 from the victim, Nedved knew or was willfully blind to the fact that the victim was a romance scam victim. On June 29, 2018, in Leominster, Nedved and a co-conspirator took another $40,000 from the victim.
In total, Nedved and co-conspirators, in exchange for payment, converted to Bitcoin more than $630,000 in cash that they received from others, knowing that the cash constituted proceeds of romance and lottery scams and other unlawful activities. They then either returned the proceeds in Bitcoin to the source of the cash or forwarded the Bitcoin proceeds to unidentified third parties.
The charges of aiding and abetting wire fraud provide for a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the gross gain or loss, whichever is greater. The charge of money laundering conspiracy provides for a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a fine of up to $500,000 or twice the value of the funds involved in the financial transactions that were the object of conspiracy. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
United States Attorney Andrew E. Lelling; David Magdycz, Acting Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Boston; and Joleen Simpson, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigations made the announcement today. Assistant U.S. Attorney Seth B. Kosto, Deputy Chief of Lelling’s Securities, Financial & Cyber Fraud Unit, is prosecuting the case.

A criminal gang operating in India kidnapped and tortured cryptocurrency traders in recent weeks before demanding 80 bitcoins as ransom, police say. The ordeal—which lasted more than two weeks for the victims—came to an end yesterday as seven people linked to the gang were arrested, the Hindustan Times newspaper reported. Law enforcement in Jaipur city said the police operation on Sunday lasted 13 hours. Three men had been held captive for 15 days inside a high-rise building and were beaten or tortured, deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Vikas Sharma told local media. The individuals were named as Luftan Shaikh, 19, Mohammad Shazad, 36 and Malang Shah, 44. "The gang kidnapped Shaikh and Shazad, two bitcoin traders, and demanded 80 bitcoin worth ₹8 crore ($1.2 million). Shah was kidnapped two days later. The gang demanded ₹10 lakh ($15,000) from his family members," the deputy commissioner said in a statement. The price of digital currency bitcoin fluctuates daily, which likely explains the difference in exchange rate. Police said officers were alerted to the scheme after a 20-minute chase resulted in the arrest of a suspect who was seen carrying a pistol in Bhakrota, which is a residential area in Jaipur. The man told officers about the kidnapping and gave up the location of the apartment building. India-based media outlet NDTV reported that the cryptocurrency traders had been lured into the region by gang members who claimed to be selling bitcoins at a low price. "[The gang] wanted to extort money from the trio. They held them hostage in the flat and had threatened to kill them if the demands were not met," NDTV quoted Sharma as saying. "Not even their family members were aware of the abduction. The victims had lost all hope because they had no access to anyone." Police said they seized guns and SUVs from the criminals. The suspects were identified by local media as Jitendra Kumar, 21, Deepak Kumar, 22, Anupam Soni, 19, Pawan Kumar, 20, Bhawani Singh, 19, Lokendra Singh, 24 and Rahul Kumar, 19. Lokendra Singh is from Rajasthan and the others are originally from Haryana. As reported by The Next Web, it's not the first time cryptocurrency traders have been targeted by extortion gangs. In January this year, it emerged that police in South Africa had arrested two suspects who allegedly kidnapped a 13-year-old boy and demanded bitcoins from his parents. He was safely returned to his family, local media outlet Times Live reported. The pair were caught after attempting to kidnap a teenage girl.

Police are looking for a gang of masked men who raided a Bitcoin exchange in the English city of Birmingham.
A gang of masked men have raided a Bitcoin (BTC) exchange in the English city of Birmingham, sparking a police investigation.
Local Facebook page Brumz Updates posted footage of the burglars ransacking the building as sirens blared on July 15.
Witnesses look on helplessly as the robbery unfolds — and seconds later, the gang speed away from the scene in a waiting car.
West Midlands Police has launched an investigation, but have confirmed that nothing of value was stolen from the business.
According to the Daily Mail, the thieves had attempted to steal a Bitcoin ATM using a rope attached to their car.
The owner of the establishment, Adam Gramowski, told the newspaper that he believes the robbers were after cash inside the machine rather than cryptocurrency, adding:
“There are no BTC [Bitcoin] in the machine, they are being sent directly from our server.”
Violent raids targeting Bitcoin businesses and traders are becoming more common. In February, a Bitcoin trader was attacked in his own home by a group of robbers disguised as the police.

Kingpin of a bitcoin scam worth Rs 485 crore beaten to death in Dehradun: Cops (Representational Image)
The kingpin of a bitcoin scam worth Rs 485 crore that had its roots in Kerala was beaten to death by five of his associates in Dehradun, a senior police official said this morning.
"The scam has its roots in Kerala and the kingpin, Abdul Shakoor, as well as his associates hail from the southern state," senior police officer in Dehradun Arun Mohan Joshi said.
The police officer added that a search was underway to arrest five more close aides of Abdul Shakoor - Ashique, Arshad, Yasin, Rehaab and Muneef.
Giving details, the police officer said, "(Abdul) Shakoor ran a bitcoin business and had allegedly collected around Rs 485 crore for investing in crypto-currency from residents of Pandikkad, Manjeri and Malappuram in Kerala."
"Shakoor's animosity with his team members started when he allegedly suffered losses in the business and escaped to Dehradun as people who had invested in bitcoins through his associates began chasing them for their money," police said.
"When his associates asked him about the money, Shakoor allegedly told them that his bitcoin account had been hacked. Not convinced, his associates hatched a plan to retrieve the password of his account.
They arrived in Dehradun, where Shakoor had been living in a rented house, and pressured him for the password. As Shakoor refused to give in, they began torturing him as they believed Shakoor still had hundreds of crores in his account and was deceiving them," police official Arun Joshi added.
"The torture continued, ultimately leading to Shakoor's death," police officials said, adding that the body had multiple injury marks.
"His killers took him to two hospitals in the city as he fell unconscious but when doctors at both facilities declared him dead, they fled leaving his body behind," Police officer Arun Joshi said.
"The accused are being interrogated even as the search for five others is on," police officials said.

Kidnapped teen crypto trader hid hairs from car boot to help police if he was murdered | Lancs Live
A teenage crypto trader was lured to a Preston apartment and kidnapped by a gang, who tried to tried to rob him of £20,000.
The 17-year-old entrepreneur was tied down in a hotel bathroom, with a pillow over his head, and threatened with a machete, before being bundled into a car boot and driven round. The boy was so scared he hid hairs he found in the car boot in his pocket, to provide forensic evidence for a murder investigation if he was killed.
He was eventually dumped in Chorley and ran to a stranger’s house for help, Preston Crown Court heard.
In January 2020, the successful 17-year-old, who can not be named for legal reasons, had reached his £10,000 cryptocurrency withdrawal limit and needed help accessing more funds to continue his enterprise, Preston Crown Court heard. News of the teenager's success was 'common knowledge' and Tasmina Rhaman, 21, contacted him, offering to help.
Using a fake Snapchat profile, Rhaman arranged to meet the teenager at the Travelodge in New Hall Lane but when Rhaman was delayed they rearranged the meeting for the Winckley Square apartments on Sunday January 16. Clare Thomas, prosecuting, said the teenager hoped to meet in a public place, but Rahman insisted on meeting indoors.
"That is because there was a plan to kidnap him", she told the court.
On January 16, the trader and a friend went to the apartment, which had been paid for by Rahman. However when they arrived she told them she needed a phone charger and the boys agreed to fetch one from home.
While they were away, Rahman's 16-year-old cousin, and Takudzwa Murombedzi, 20, went to the hotel room and lay in wait. The 16-year-old had a machete and had his hood up, while Murombedzi wore a balaclava. "They had an arrangement to act together to get money from him", Ms Thomas said.
When the teenager returned he was "outnumbered and taken by surprise." Murombedzi and the 16-year-old forced the teenager into the hotel bathroom, where bin bags had been taped to the walls to create the impression there would be blood shed.
"His hands were restrained, his mobile phone taken from him, a pillow placed over his head and bin bags stuffed in his mouth", Ms Thomas said. "They said they knew he had £20,000 and said he would be killed if he didn't give it to them. He was forced to open his mobile phone and they said they would hurt his mum and his younger brother if he did not give it to them.
"Ms Rahman was smiling as he was being tied up and threatened with the machete. The victim said he did not have £20,000 and was forced to sit on the toilet until they got a chair. They said they would share on social media to humiliate him."
Ms Thomas said the plan seemed to be Rahman's idea to get the victim's home address and pay his family a visit. The 16-year-old made a bizarre claim that he too was a victim of the gang, but said he would help the teenager by taking the money from him and handing it over to the girl.
"He (the victim) formed the impression the 16-year-old was the mastermind", Ms Thomas said.
Rahman went to the teenager's home, along with Albert Kahiya, 19, who was the gang's designated driver. Kahiya told the victim's mum her son was with friends and he was there to collect some things. "She was shocked and scared that her son was missing, and she had a young child in the house", Ms Thomas said.
"He (the victim) was put on the phone and told to drop £20,000 out of the window. He hoped his mum would realise he was in danger and phone the police."
Back at the hotel the teenager was untied and the bin bags were removed from his mouth and hands. He was ordered into the boot of a waiting Peugeot, where he feared he would be killed. With Kahiya in the driver's seat, and Murombedzi in the passenger seat, the terrified teenager attempted to gather forensic evidence for what he feared could be a future murder investigation. He was eventually let out in Chorley, where he ran to a random house in distress.
In a victim statement, the teenager says he feels uneasy and paranoid since the kidnap. He feels threatened and victimised when he leaves the house and finds it hard to get up for college.
Before this happened he was very sociable and enjoyed going out with his family, but now he is constantly watching his back. When he leaves the house he worries he is being followed, he said.
His parents have also been affected and constantly check the home security. He suffers flashbacks and panic attacks and is on a waiting list for counselling. In a letter to the court, the 16-year-old defendant said he was sorry for what he had done, and hoped the victim and his family got peace of mind from the outcome of the hearing. He said he hoped to train as a youth worker to help other young people.
Beverley Hackett, defending Kahiya said he did not know the true extent of what he was getting involved in when he agreed to go to Preston. Ms Hackett said her client was an otherwise unremarkable young person, with no criminal record, wo lives with his parents and works in a warehouse.
Speaking on behalf of Murombedzi, Daniel Harman said: “He is an impressive young man who made a catastrophic, life changing mistake.” He added his client had acted with an extreme level of naivety.
Murombedzi, of Harebell Road, Didcock, Oxfordshire, and the 16-year-old defendant pleaded guilty to robbery and conspiracy to kidnap. Rahman, of Holland Road, Sheffield, and Kahiya, of Willow Way, Coventry, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to kidnap.
Sentencing, Judge Darren Preston said: “Your victim appears to have done well for himself trading in cryptocurrency, despite being only 17 years old. Together you hatched a plot, whereby Rahman lured him into your collective web using a fake Snapchat name because it seems he was unable, due to his age, to get sufficiient credit to trade as he wanted to.
“There was a plot to set him up. He feared for his life. This was a terrifying experience for anyone, let alone a 17-year-old. The whole enterprise was planned. It was designed to cause maximum fear and distress
“The effects on him have been long lasting with serious psychological and social consequences. Each of you got involved in this serious criminality, and given that you are all from decent families, and two or three of you have been in employment and contributing to society. All of you are polite, decent, family oriented individuals. Why you got involved in this is difficult to fathom as this is serious criminality. If you were adults you would be getting sentences measured in double figures.”
He sentenced Murombedzi and the 16-year-old defendant to six years each for the robbery and five years for the kidnap to run concurrently, to be served in a young offenders institute. Kahiya, who played a lesser role, was sentenced to four years. Rahman was not represented at the hearing and will be sentenced on January 16.

Philadelphia Police Searching For 2 Suspects Who Broke Into Bitcoin Machine, Stole Cash Box - CBS Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Philadelphia police are searching for two suspects who broke into a Bitcoin machine and took the cash box from inside. The incident happened Tuesday, shortly before 6 a.m., at a store on the 7200 block of Frankford Avenue in the Mayfair section of the city.
The store manager says this wasn't the thieves' first rodeo, suggesting the suspects looked like they knew what they were doing. He's hoping someone at home knows who the two men are.
"It happened really fast. They came, I don't know what they call it, a machete or something, and they just popped it open," Mayfair Quick Mart Manager Hashid Alsaidi said.
Police released surveillance video they want you to see.
Two brazen robbers used crowbars to break into a bitcoin ATM early on Tuesday morning.
"They looked like they knew what they were doing. It was so fast," Alsaidi said.
Alsaidi manages the store on the 7200 block of Frankford Avenue in Mayfair.
He says it all happened in a matter of seconds.
As the store employee called 911, the robbers took off in a white car.
"I think people can send money overseas from this machine and they can buy Bitcoin currency," Alsaidi said.
What surprised Alsaidi is, they didn't touch the ATM that was within an arm's reach.
He says the bitcoin ATM isn't very popular and he doesn't believe the pair made away with much.
"Honestly, it wasn't doing good anyway," Alsaidi said.
The "Bitbox" may be unavailable now, but store management says it'll be operational again soon as police work to make an arrest.
If you have any information about this incident, contact police at 215-686-3153.

Student forced to transfer bitcoin now worth £68k after being held at knifepoint stunned after cops drop probe | The US Sun
A FRESHER was robbed at knifepoint for Bitcoin now worth a whopping £68,000 during his first week at university.
The lad was forced to move back home after eight thugs stormed his accommodation in Kent and demanded the security passwords to his financial apps.
Now his horrified mum has warned others to take care after the 20-minute ordeal at Canterbury Christ Church University.
She said her son had been discussing cryptocurrency with a new friend on campus just five days after he started his course.
She said: "It was the first friend my son made from university and he was from London.
"They were just having lads' talk.
"The conversation turned to financial and the friend started talking about cyber currency."
The mother alleges the other student then invited eight school friends over from East London - and her son instantly "knew he was in trouble".

No one was ever charged in connection with the incident.
The student's cryptocurrency was worth £6,000 at the time of the robbery last year - but its value has leapt over the past 12 months.
A further £3,000 of his grant money was also stolen.
After the violent mugging, the victim phoned the police before rushing over to a security hut on the university premises.
The victim's mum alleges the security guards didn't attend the scene.
She said: "He phoned the police and they didn't attend because there was something more important on that night.
"The only action the university took was moving him to different accommodation.
"He was too traumatised so he moved back home even though he had safer and better accommodation.
"He was terrified, emasculated, humiliated and abused.
"You don't hand over nearly £10,000 if you don't think you're not going to get injured."
None of the money could be refunded and the police investigation was dropped after eight months.
The victim's mother said she was frustrated with the response from the security staff at the campus and how the police handled the case.
In a warning to other students, she said: "The police commonly call Freshers' Week 'fishing week' because all the criminals come down. They know the students have got grants, laptops, and new stuff.
"Attacks, assaults, and muggings are quite common across the country."
Canterbury District Commander Chief Inspector Mark Hedges confirmed that police were contacted about the robbery.
He said: "The incident was reported around 45 minutes after the robbery had taken place and during the call, it was established the offenders had left the scene.
He was terrified, emasculated, humiliated and abused
"As a result, it was arranged for officers to visit the victim the following day, when further details of the robbery were disclosed, including the theft of a mobile phone and the transfer of a significant amount of cryptocurrency from the victim's account.
"A thorough investigation into the incident was carried out, including a review of local CCTV opportunities, analysis of Bitcoin 'wallet' IDs and exploration of possible forensic evidence.
"However, the case did not meet the evidential test and the three suspects were refused charge.
"Kent Police takes the safety of the county's student population extremely seriously and encourages all young people to take all steps possible to ensure they do not become victims of crime while studying away from home."
A spokesperson for CCCU said the safety of students is of "paramount importance".
They added: "The reported incident was investigated and thoroughly reviewed.
"We offered the student wellbeing counselling, financial support, and relocation of accommodation."

Two thieves have destroyed the front wall of a deli in Canada after a failed attempt to steal a Bitcoin ATM.
A delicatessen in the Canadian town of Kelowna, British Colombia has been severely damaged after two bumbling crooks attempted to steal a Bitcoin ATM installed in a store adjacent to it.
At roughly 3am on October 7, the two suspects unsuccessfully attempted to steal the Bitcoin ATM located on the back wall of the neighbouring store. While attempting to flee empty-handed they backed their white GMC Sierra pick-up truck into L&D Meats and Deli and smashed its front wall.
The chance they’ll be caught seems quite high, as local police noted that the thieves managed to leave their tailgate behind. Solana Paré, a spokesperson for Kelowna police stated:
“A preliminary assessment conducted by staff on-site, suggests that despite the thousands of dollars in damage caused, nothing appears to be taken from inside the business as the suspects were unsuccessful in taking the Bitcoin ATM.”
Given how inept the attempted theft was, you have to wonder if the criminals were hoping to steal the “Bitcoins’ inside the machine, or if they were after cash.
The deli’s owner Don Favell lamented the timing of the incident, noting that Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and his customers are expecting to receive pre-ordered meat before the holiday.
Favell said the damages will be covered by his insurance and that he is now focused on trying to get his business up and running again. He told local media: “That’s all we can do, look after everybody.”
“They will get their turkeys,” he vowed.
Bitcoin ATM theft does not appear to attract the most sophisticated of criminals. In November 201, two thieves broke into a grocery store in British Colombia to crack open a Bitcoin ATM installed inside. They stole $4,000 but accidentally left $50,000 behi.

Rond 20.40 uur die donderdag werd bij het slachtoffer aangebeld. Drie mannen in groene jacks deden zich voor als storingsmonteurs en vroegen of hij een storing had. Voor hij het wist werd hij bij zijn keel gegrepen en hardhandig de woonkamer in gesleurd, waar hij werd mishandeld. De bewoner moest onder bedreiging de code voor toegang tot zijn cryptomunten geven.

В Омске вынесен приговор по уголовному делу о разбойном нападении с причинением ущерба на сумму более 87 млн рублей
Октябрьский районный суд г. Омска вынес приговор по уголовному делу в отношении 3 жителей Москвы и Московской области. Двое из них признаны виновными в совершении преступления, предусмотренного пп. «а», «б» ч. 4 ст. 162 УК РФ (разбой), ч. 4 ст. 327 УК РФ (использование поддельных документов), а третий – по ч. 4 ст. 159 УК РФ (мошенничество).
В суде установлено, в июле 2021 г. данные лица, получив информацию о том, что житель г. Омска имеет в собственности значительные средства в криптовалюте, прибыли в город и в течение 10 дней вели за ним наблюдение, выясняя маршруты передвижения и распорядок дня.
В один из дней они остановили потерпевшего на улице, предъявили поддельные удостоверения, после чего посадили мужчину в автомобиль и принудили передать им 3 млн рублей и перевести более 84 млн рублей в криптовалюте.
С места нападения злоумышленники скрылись и распорядились похищенным по своему усмотрению.
В результате оперативно-розыскных мероприятий они были задержаны, вину в совершении преступлений не признали.
Суд приговорил указанных лиц к лишению свободы на срок от 6 лет 6 месяцев до 9 лет с отбыванием наказания в исправительной колонии строгого режима.
Кроме того, суд обязал их в полном объеме возместить причиненный потерпевшему ущерб.
Приговор в законную силу не вступил.
