Replying to Avatar Shawn

Just off the phone with a close friend who's octogenarian mother was scammed into withdrawing tens of thousands of dollars in cash from her bank, then buying and sending Bitcoin to the scammers. He was hoping I could help. Beyond basic on-chain analysis, of course, I can't.

But what stuck with me is this: if a large, regional bank doesn't flag and prevent an elderly person from taking thousands of dollars in cash out over a few days from multiple local branches, what even is the point of them? Incredible.

This happens all the time and it’s awful and I know that I have a friend who works at a bank and people will come in doing this kind of thing all the time and they try to warn them and tell them not to do it and they cannot get them to listen
