Un investisseur en cryptomonnaie et sa compagne séquestrés à leur domicile de La Rochelle, des virements effectués par les ravisseurs - Le Parisien
|
||
|
||
Les acteurs du secteur continuent d’être la cible des ravisseurs. Un investisseur en cryptomonnaie et sa compagne ont été séquestrés à leur domicile de La Rochelle (Charente-Maritime) ce jeudi, par des agresseurs qui leur ont soutiré de la monnaie virtuelle, a appris Le Parisien, confirmant une information du média spécialisé The Big Whale.
|
||
|
||
Selon nos informations, trois agresseurs se sont introduits à leur domicile aux alentours de 5 heures du matin. Le couple a été ligoté et plusieurs virements ont été effectués par les assaillants, indique une source policière au Parisien. Le montant de la somme dérobée n’est pas connu à ce stade, précise-t-il.

Une cible privilégiée pour les ravisseurs
|
||
|
||
Depuis plusieurs mois, les agressions d’investisseurs en cryptomonnaies se sont multipliées en France. En janvier 2025, le cofondateur de l’entreprise Ledger, David Balland, ainsi que son épouse ont été enlevés par un commando violent qui réclamait une importante rançon à leurs proches et associés. Le chef d’entreprise avait eu le doigt coupé lors de cette prise d’otage.
