Offline USDT sale abandoned after buyer gets punched in face
A 19-year-old Singaporean crypto trader was forced to abandon an in-person attempt to convert S$32,000 ($24,000) into tether (USDT) when he was ambushed by two men who punched him in the face and chased him through a nearby mall. Mothership reports that the teenager, known only as ‘ZK,’ was attacked by the men after meeting the crypto seller in a car park on August 29. As the deal was going down, ZK claimed that the men, looking like “regular pedestrians,” passed by before one of them punched him across his left cheek. Afraid that the men were trying to steal his cash, ZK says he bolted to the nearest mall and shouted for help. They allegedly chased after him, but ZK says he managed to outrun them and report the incident to police. ZK claims the attack left him swollen and bruised.
