About this scam
Thodex was a Turkish cryptocurrency exchange whose founder Faruk Fatih Ozer fled the country in April 2021 with approximately $2 billion in customer funds. The exchange suddenly halted all withdrawals, leaving 391,000 users unable to access their money. Ozer was later arrested in Albania in 2022 and extradited to Turkey, where he was sentenced to over 11,000 years in prison.
