Crypto Scam
Venezuelan authorities have arrested Rosa María González, a key suspect in the Generación Zoe crypto scam that defrauded tens of thousands of investors. The 30-year-old fled Argentina with 611 Bitcoin worth about $56 million after the scheme's collapse in mid-2022. Her capture in San Cristóbal follows years on the run and attempts to launch new frauds.

Ethereum's daily transactions reached an all-time high of over 2.8 million on January 16, largely driven by a widespread address poisoning scam. These attacks, which involve sending tiny crypto amounts from deceptive addresses, are intensifying amid recent network upgrades. Security experts warn that without improved wallet safeguards, users remain vulnerable to significant losses.
