Argentina is embroiled in a political scandal after President Javier Milei promoted the $LIBRA cryptocurrency, which subsequently crashed, leading to significant investor losses and allegations of fraud. 

Felix Leech, known for his roles in 'Star Wars' and 'Game of Thrones,' fell victim to a sophisticated cryptocurrency scam, resulting in a loss of nearly £50,000. After joining a WhatsApp trading group, initial small withdrawals appeared legitimate, but subsequent larger withdrawal attempts led to demands for additional fees under false pretenses.
