Oh boy, you won’t believe this one ๐คฏ. Some poor guy, Alexander, a former crypto trader, gets kidnapped near Paris. I mean, what’s next? Holding up a Coinbase? ๐ค
So, the kidnapper calls the police chief in Saint-Germain-en-Laye at 11 p.m. from Algeria, claiming they have a photo of Alexander on his knees with his hands tied. Yeah, because that’s not a weird thing to do at all ๐ธ.
They want 10,000 euros for his release. I guess that’s like, a crypto-mining rig or something ๐ธ.
Police action ๐
The police are all like, “We gotta find this guy!” and they start tracking Alexander’s phone to the 10th arrondissement of Paris. I mean, it’s not like they have better things to do, right? ๐
They set up surveillance near Alexander’s home, just in case the kidnappers drop him off like an Uber ๐.
And then, at 4:00 a.m., they spot Alexander walking home with a face that’s all swollen and shocked. I guess that’s what happens when you’ve been kidnapped and strangled ๐คฏ.
He tells the police that the kidnappers strangled him until he passed out. Yeah, that’s a real fun time ๐ด.
French crypto crime wave ๐
It turns out there’s been a whole wave of crypto-related crimes in France. Like, in January, some Ledger co-founder’s fingers got seared with a capitavaity thingy ๐ฅ.
And in May, some crypto entrepreneur’s dad got kidnapped and had his finger chopped off. Yeah, because that’s not a hostage situation ๐ โโ๏ธ.
Over 20 people have been arrested, but I guess this latest incident is still under investigation ๐.
