• One of the victims in Kyiv was reportedly abducted at gunpoint and forced to sign a fictitious $5 million “debt.”
The suspects now face up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

A dispute has emerged over a proposed acquisition of the Telegram project @dices.
According to @ton4life, Khaos (@side) offered him a partnership in the purchase of @dices for $20,000, claiming he would contribute $15,000 while @ton4life would provide the remaining $5,000. In exchange, Khaos allegedly promised a 50/50 partnership in the project, management responsibilities, and a Major verification.
Khaos reportedly claimed that the owner of @dices, Arthur, wanted to sell the project after losing $100,000 to a friend and that the transfer would be completed within a week. Based on these representations, @ton4life sent $5,000.
• After concerns arose regarding the deal, @ton4life decided to cancel the arrangement and requested the return of his $5,000. Khaos initially agreed to refund the money and reportedly stated that he would send it once he returned to the office on Monday, claiming his Ledger wallet was there.
• However, Arthur later confirmed that he was not planning to sell @dices for $20,000, contradicting Khaos’s claims about the proposed acquisition.
• Khaos later accused @ton4life of discussing the project with other users despite being told to keep the negotiations private. He argued that this violated their agreement and ultimately refused to return the $5,000, stating:
“I told you you shouldn’t disclose deals before they were finalized. If the deal falls through, your money will be lost as agreed.”

An elderly man from India named Arivu tattooed “$boutywork” across his forehead after the creator of a Pump.fun bounty mistakenly listed the misspelled ticker instead of the intended “$bountywork.”
The task reportedly offered a reward of 40 SOL (~$2500). Arivu shared photo and video proof, saying he followed the instructions exactly, but did not receive the bounty because the tattoo featured the misspelled ticker.
Shortly afterward, a memecoin using the misspelled ticker $BOUTYWORK was launched on Pump.fun and surged past a $250,000 market cap. Following the viral attention, Arivu reportedly received more than $15,000 in trading fees from the memecoin, later saying the money would be enough to retire his family.
