On February 27, 2023, a foreign Bitcoin holder was drugged and robbed in Medellín, Colombia. The victim, a 36-year-old German national, was targeted by a 20-year-old Venezuelan woman. During a dinner at his apartment, the victim was drugged with scopolamine, commonly known as "burundanga" in Latin America. After losing consciousness, the woman robbed the apartment, taking five cell phones, a passport, all clothing, cutlery, food, appliances, and most importantly, a hardware wallet containing approximately $20,000 in Bitcoin (BTC) 1.

The incident highlights the increasing trend of physical attacks on cryptocurrency holders. As the value of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin rises, they become attractive targets for criminals who use drugs and physical force to access digital wallets. Unlike traditional bank accounts, cryptocurrency wallets are not protected by third-party institutions, making them vulnerable to such attacks 1•2•3.
|
|
|
|
Criminals often conduct extensive surveillance, using social media and other public platforms to identify potential targets. High-profile figures, such as influencers and entrepreneurs, are particularly at risk due to their public profiles and the visibility of their wealth. This trend has led to a rise in "wrench attacks," where perpetrators use physical violence or kidnapping to coerce victims into revealing their private keys or transferring cryptocurrency 4•5•6.
|
|
|
|
The incident involving the German national in Medellín is part of a broader pattern where criminals target individuals with known or suspected cryptocurrency holdings. These attacks can be highly organized, with groups conducting meticulous research and planning their assaults to maximize the chances of success 4•5•6.
