Episode Details

Tennessee just shut down crypto ATMs statewide after scammers ripped off nearly $4.1 million in Murfreesboro over six months—using those very machines. New law since July makes operating them a misdemeanor, and cops say businesses are already complying, unplugging or removing the devices. Crime reports have dropped since the ban, but authorities warn scammers are still out there, adapting and targeting unsuspecting victims. Even before the law, some business owners like Jessica Mitchell avoided crypto payments after seeing friends and family—including her own grandmother—lose tens of thousands to fraud. The message: machines are gone, but vigilance is still your best defense.
