A 29-year-old from Berlin wanted to trade bitcoins in a parking lot in Munich-Feldmoching on Tuesday. When he wanted to prove the wallet with a high five-digit amount on the cell phone to the supposed buyers by showing them, the smartphone was snatched from him. The four perpetrators then fled with two cars. The police were able to arrest and arrest the men from the Mühldorf district.
On Tuesday, March 16, 2021, around 7 p.m., a 29-year-old from Berlin met two unknown men in a parking lot on Dülferstrasse in Munich-Feldmoching. It was about a bitcoin business. The Berliner unlocked his smartphone and showed the men the contents of his electronic purse, the so-called wallet, in which an amount in the high five-digit range was shown.
At that moment he was attacked by two other men. They grabbed and clutched him and yanked his cell phone from his hand. The perpetrators then fled in two different vehicles. The 29-year-old from Berlin immediately notified the police and one of the two vehicles was found as part of the search. In it sat three suspects between the ages of 21 and 29 from the Mühldorf district who were arrested.
The second car could not be found. However, the police arrested the fourth suspect, a 30-year-old also from the Mühldorf district, later after further investigations and manholding measures in Munich.
Arrest warrants were issued against three of the Bitcoin robbers. The investigation of this virtual money robbery is ongoing at Kommissariat 21.
