Dude...hook, line, and sinker. FBI knows their target audience lol
They just peeled off some of the low-hanging fruit. That's all.
Buzzword bingo
I had "AI native" on my bingo card and they missed that one. Maybe it'll come up on the next turn.
Someone got paid by Uncle Sam to make this and I’m extremely envious.
Yup, they've been entrapping victims for decades!
Nothing about this is entrapment....this cryptocurrency created by the FBI isn't any different from others. People are breaking the law in the same way in the crypto market every day, these people just got caught.
Delicious boot oh I love licking it
Lmao that's your take away
