Data: FBI reports over 13.4k cryptocurrency self-service terminal scam complaints in 2025, with losses of $388 million
FBI IC3 releases 2025 data on cryptocurrency self-service terminal scams: over 13.4k complaints, with losses exceeding $388 million, up 23% and 58% respectively from 2024. Victims aged 50 and above account for more than half, with losses over $302 million. Criminals often provide guidance to victims (withdrawing, locating, and using self-service terminals), and the statistics do not solely attribute losses to self-service terminals.
