Hefei police have filed a case for investigation into an offline virtual currency trading case involving fraud, with the amount involved exceeding 277,000 USD

ChainCatcher news, according to Guangming.com, Ms. Cheng from Hefei and her boyfriend were preparing to sell their USDT for RMB, involving over 277,000 USDT.

After completing the transaction with her friend Sun, Ms. Cheng was informed that the cash of over two million was provided by someone else and that the transaction would only be considered complete if it was transferred to another account. Meanwhile, Ms. Cheng's virtual currency had already been transferred to Sun's account, and Sun claimed that his phone was infected with a virus, which prohibited any operations with the U coin.
