This is incredibly difficult and infuriating for us to watch.
Our hearts go out to Karen and everyone else who has been scammed whether it was via the Postal Service, their telephone carrier or their own bank.
Hacks, scams and phishing schemes come from all directions and this is why we have such an extensive anti fraud program in place that includes customer support based right here in the US.
Neither consumers nor businesses can be paranoid enough.
Weโll be waiting for the USPS to be charged with facilitating grand larceny.
This is Karen.
After 49 years as a nurse, three children raised alone, and a husband lost to Agent Orange exposure while serving in Vietnam, Karen Faye saved every dollar she could into 1.67 Bitcoin.

@ByteFederal@frankcorva@SatoshiActFund Our money. Our choice. Let the free market not regulators incentivize Bitcoin ATM operators to put the right protocols in place to protect consumers.
The cash economy needs access to #Bitcoin for inflation resistant savings, online payments and shopping. Loosing access to bitcoin harms million of under and underbanked Americans. Please support this campaign.
Friends please support and help preserve acees to BTM's. The unbanked have never had acess to an asset like #Bitcoin before and they need it more than ever. Without inflation resistant savings, the cash economy will see their savings dramatically debased.
