A woman in Forsyth County, Georgia, was scammed out of $4,900 after being falsely told she missed jury duty and needed to pay to avoid arrest. The scam involved depositing cash into a Bitcoin ATM, which converted it into cryptocurrency sent to the fraudsters. This case highlights a growing trend where scammers use fake legal threats to pressure victims into quick crypto payments. The FBI reports over $388 million lost in similar crypto kiosk scams in 2025 and advises victims to keep transaction details and report to authorities.
