ZachXBT Links $5M in Crypto Thefts to Support Scammer

Onchain investigator ZachXBT has named Tiffany Milanovich as a US based threat actor linked to at least five million dollars in stolen digital assets. According to the investigation, Milanovich worked as a phone caller who impersonated support staff for hardware wallets and centralized exchanges to trick victims into giving up access to their funds.

The report highlights several major incidents, including a June attack where a victim lost one point two million dollars in Bitcoin and Ethereum after their Trezor wallet was drained. Another incident in October involved a five hundred thousand dollar theft from a Coinbase account. Investigators noted that Milanovich brazenly flaunted luxury purchases and casino gambling funded by the stolen money on social media.

This case highlights a broader surge in sophisticated impersonation fraud targeting digital asset holders. Federal data and blockchain analytics firms report massive increases in tech support and government impersonation complaints, resulting in billions of dollars in losses. Security experts continue to advise users to verify all support communications independently and avoid sharing private keys or seed phrases.
