New York Attorney General Letitia James is suing scammers who allegedly stole crypto worth $2.2 million.
She doesn’t know who they are— but it doesn’t matter. She’ll tell them with a non-fungible token.
James’ office intends to serve the unidentified scammers by dropping an NFT into their crypto wallets, the office said Thursday. The NFT will contain a link to a website with documents detailing the lawsuit.
It will be the first time a regulator has served an alleged criminal using NFT, the office said.
