Top Gear’s Clarkson and May brand crypto scam ads as ‘balls’

James May and Jeremy Clarkson highlighted the crypto scam after paid-for adverts appeared on X directing users to a fake BBC article.

Hundreds freed from ‘pig-butchering’ compound after victim escapes

Authorities freed over 600 slaves from the Philippine scam center that was forcing victims to carry out ‘pig butchering’ scams for crypto.

A crypto-draining app that mimics bitcoin wallet Leather was available via Apple’s app store for at least four years, despite warnings.

Irish deputy prime minister Micheál Martin sent a legal letter demanding that X remove the crypto scam adverts using his likeness.

Pig-butchering scams based at the Myanmar compound have reportedly raked in around $100 million in USDT over the past two years.
