That is horrible that this happened to them. This is the similar sort of thing that my wife's acquaintance is involved in and I have a feeling it is going to fall the same way for her at some point. Especially if the price of ETH continues to rise. I purchased my first cold wallet the other day. I am waiting for it to arrive. I am pretty excited about it.

They need to get out as quickly as possible as losing everything is what happens. If they can't see it let them continue as it seems these types of schemes run their course and everyone gets burned. Maybe some much needed growing up won't go amiss and they will know better for the next one.

This one seems to be going for a long longer than I had expected. It makes me wonder what their "out" number is. We haven't seen any posts by her talking about how she got screwed over, but we know they are probably coming.

I think covid may have made this one in SA panic and wrap it up early as they could have been stuck with no international flights being part of an escape route. Most likely they have a number and hoping for Bitcoin to surpass $50k for a proper pay day.

That makes sense.
Cold wallet? Is that a hardware/USB wallet?

Yes, like a Ledger.
