A group of six people was arrested in New Delhi, India for robbing people. The group argued that they were buying bitcoins for real money.
When we think that buying Bitcoin and other digital currencies is safe, we suddenly hear about terrible stories of theft through Internet fraud or the Pyramid Scheme. The decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies means that anyone who wishes to engage in this must take into account the potential risks involved and be very careful when checking the reliability of sources. However, such situations are far from what happened in New Delhi, where people were robbed when trying to purchase Bitcoins.
