$BTC knocking.
This is the wildest SIM swap scam you’ve never heard of.
Crypto investor Michael Turpin had just left a conference.
Across the country, a group of teens bribed telecom workers and hijacked his phone number.
Leading them?
15-year-old Ellis Pinsky.
On a Skype call, Ellis launched scripts that scraped Turpin’s digital life—emails, cloud files, everything—hunting for wallet keys.
Then came the jackpot:
$900M in $ETH .
But it was locked.
So they dug deeper.
