French couple suffers three home invasions due to mistaken identity; two attackers sentenced
A couple in Somme, France, reportedly suffered three home invasions in less than a month after purchasing a house from a former cryptocurrency millionaire. The attackers mistakenly believed the couple possessed approximately 1 million euros in cryptocurrency. The previous owner of the house had become a target due to their tax information and address being leaked on the dark web. The Amiens Criminal Court has sentenced two attackers to three years and 18 months in prison, respectively, for the third assault. This incident highlights the growing phenomenon of "crypto wrench attacks" in France, which are often triggered by data breaches, with attackers using physical means to obtain victims' crypto assets.
