🇺🇸BREAKING: An FBI counterintelligence agent has been accused of stealing nearly $1MILLION in crypto from a criminal target.
According to court filings, the agent allegedly made unauthorized withdrawals using credentials obtained during the investigation.
He later confessed to his colleagues and investigators that he acted out of frustration with the FBI's handling of adversarial cryptocurrency accounts and had planned to retire to a vineyard using the funds.
The agent has since been fired, arrested, and is facing charges related to possession of stolen property, per NYT.(Coin Bureau)
