FBI: Bitcoin ATM scams hit record $333.5M losses in 2025

On 3 January 2026, record Bitcoin ATM fraud losses for 2025 reached roughly $333.5 million, alongside more than 12,000 complaints. Scammers used impersonation and urgent calls to push victims into cash deposits at crypto kiosks, with older adults heavily targeted as U.S. deployments exceeded 30,000 by 2024. Regulators cautioned that legitimate institutions do not request payment via Bitcoin ATMs.
