Have there been any big scams around crypto in your country?

Hi!

So, in Argentina, a few years back, there was a pretty big scam that got approximately 16.000 or 1/5 of the population of a mid size town here (San Pedro, pop: 70.000) involved in a pyramid scheme. It mixed crypto, an Asian run scam operation and even Polish actors acting as fake antrepeneurs. Things were wild (also, it affected even more people in Argentina but San Pedro was the singlemost affected area).

So, with crypto being quite popular and there being lots of scams surrounding it, have there been any big cases in your country or noteworthy ones?
