The Dark Side of Crypto Inside the World of Rug Pull Scammers


Cryptocurrencies have made millionaires overnight, but at the same time, they have opened the door to one of the fastest-growing scam economies in history. With little regulation and a lot of hype, millions of dollars can disappear within days.
In the program Trafficked with Mariana Van Zeller, Mariana Van Zeller secretly infiltrates the world of crypto scams, revealing how Rug Pull operations are built, launched, and then abandoned almost instantly.
Here's how the game is played:
Fake hype - worthless tokens pumped up with fabricated success stories.
Hidden identities - aliases, shell structures, and digital masks.
False legitimacy - hiding behind the phrase "It's legal" and then fleeing with millions of dollars.
The real takeaway?
Crypto offers huge opportunities, but blind FOMO is costly.
If you don't research the project thoroughly, you are the liquidity they exit with. Question everything.
Double-check.
And never invest in what you don't understand.
