You must remember the Bitcoin scam on Twitter in 2020. They hacked Twitter accounts of several big celebrities, including Elon Musk and announced a big giveway. Many people in the world believe that. They transfer bitcoin. But Bitcoin goes to the hacker's account. Twitter accounts were later restored and the hacker was arrested in Florida. Recently, the court has given verdict for the trial of hackers. Since he was 18 years old , he was charged with juvenile delinquency and sentenced to 3 years in prison. His lawyer said he was able to take very little money by scam. But a German woman says she transferred 560,000 USD worth of bitcoin. It is a lesson for us. The account was hacked and everyone was offered to double the bitcoin. It's really incredible and tempting. Those who have stepped on this foot have lost BTC.
