The dark story of "Lettuce" 🥬

The death of Fernando Pérez Algaba, "Lechuga", continues to be a topic of discussion. The trial began in September 2025. Brutal. He was found dismembered inside a suitcase in July 2023, in Buenos Aires.

His social media showed expensive cars 🏎️ and incredible crypto profits 🚀. A complete facade. It seems he was living a complete lie while his financial reality crumbled. Broke. Debts everywhere.

The crypto market destroyed him 📉. His investments... a total disaster. He not only owed the Argentine tax authorities, but also got involved with the wrong people. The Barra Brava is not just any creditor. They threatened him. Then he turned up dead.

What brought him there? Several things:

  1. He didn't know how to manage his money: He appeared luxurious while sinking into debt 💸. He borrowed from those he shouldn't have.

  2. Dangerous friendships: The Barras Bravas... do not forgive. When he could not pay, his fate was sealed 🔥.

  3. Instagram vs. reality: Everything was a lie. Everything 🌕.

It is not entirely clear, but they were also investigating him for something like a Ponzi scheme involving trucks in the United States. More enemies to the list.

The trial is just beginning and it's already chilling. It's somewhat ironic that someone who lived by pretending to be wealthy ended up like this. A rather strong warning.
