PEnns About time!! All remaining states seem to be enabling the scammers so far with Crapto ATM at every gas station! Reply
SkyBill40 These shouldn't even be a thing. There's been a lot of fraud in my state as well, and I wish our legislature and governor had the backbone to do the same as these others. Fraud especially targets the elderly, and these kinds of scams are far too prevalent. And despite whatever supposed safeguards they're putting on the devices, these crypto ATM owners are making a tidy profit off it with little regard for grinding illegal activity to a halt. Reply
Co BIY Public Service announcement: If you know a person scammed in one of these schemes. Get a report to police with experience in fraud and cyber scams immediately and there is a chance for recovery of the funds. You only have hours or days when the transactions can be reversed with the intermediaries. Reply

An elderly friend of mine fell for one of the Crapto scams and stuffed $30,000 in those Crapto ATMS. 2 days later, the local police said they can't do a thing. The FBI surely might be interested in this, right?: They never bothered to reply! Maybe they were busy investing in this scam coin. Reply

It's shameful and most of these elderly people come from a time where trust was a real thing and honest meant something. Sadly we are long past those times and seedy people will continue to prey on those who aren't remotely tech savvy enough to realize when something is a scam. I've had to work hard in an effort to shield both of my parents (and one of my mom's friends recently – in a different scam) from themselves. Reply
