In this secretly recorded Zoom call, fake investor “Rudolf Bouvier” introduced by Tesalia Asset Management, demands inspection of a crypto wallet set up as proof of funds by a startup CEO.
Later, wallet assets were stolen by him by exploiting a bug in Atomic Wallet that lets Send amount in recipient QR code override a token amount manually keyed in by sender and does not update US Dollar equivalent. You can see actual crypto theft using fake QR code in the second video.
Tesalia Asset Management (TAM) is a front for crypto scammers and has been flagged by European financial regulators; see their public warning: https://www.cssf.lu/en/2024/09/warning-concerning-the-fraudulent-activities-carried-out-by-tesalia-asset-management/
