Des Plaines resident falls victim to crypto scammer

A Des Plaines resident was scammed out of $1,900 in cryptocurrency by someone impersonating an employee from a crypto platform, police said.

The theft was reported Sunday.

The email indicated the victim’s contact information had changed and gave him a link to confirm the information, police said. Once the victim went to that website, the thief used his personal information to make several transfers.
