(Omaha, NE) -- An Omaha woman becomes the victim of a cryptocurrency scam worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. The FBI says the victim has deposited $732,937 into a bitcoin account since 2021 and hasn't been able to access it. She says the account is run by a person she met on an online dating site. The FBI says that account has been linked to nine separate accounts in the Cayman Islands. The money was moved over to an FBI account in February 2022 and it's unclear if the victim will ever get it back.
