Published 1 day, 21 hours ago
Description
Two con artists posing as federal agents tricked an 85-year-old DC resident into handing over $200K in gold bars—only to be foiled when the unsuspecting dealer tipped off police. The scammers, Chu Lin and Xiean Cheng, were arrested after showing up at the victim’s home; both now face second-degree financial fraud charges. A chilling reminder: never rush into big-money deals based on fear-mongering emails or calls.
