A man posing as a real estate businessman allegedly cheated investors of nearly Rs 2.3 crore in Hyderabad by promoting a cryptocurrency scheme. Police said he lured victims with high returns and threatened them when confronted over non-payment.
According to federal prosecutors, McAfee and his executive advisor-cum-bodyguard Jimmy Gale Watson Jr, earned nearly $2 million by requesting Twitter followers to invest in cryptocurrencies like Reddcoin and Dogecoin.
