anchored·2EGgbA…XPm5Summary
A New Delhi-based cryptocurrency fraud ring, identified through on-chain analysis by blockchain investigator ZachXBT in June 2026, is alleged to have stolen over $1 million from American victims since 2025, primarily targeting elderly individuals via social engineering. The ring was exposed when a suspected money mule, Aman Kesar (X: @Amankesar11), contacted ZachXBT seeking help unfreezing 5.73 BTC (~$475,000) held by Changelly under anti-money laundering review. On-chain tracing linked the frozen funds to a cluster of confirmed social engineering thefts; Kesar subsequently deleted his X account and all public posts following the exposure.

“ZachXBT published findings on June 19, 2026 exposing Aman Kesar (@Amankesar11), an Indian Bitcoin mule who contacted ZachXBT complaining about 5.73 BTC (~$475K) frozen by Changelly since March 2025. ZachXBT traced the BTC inflows to multiple social engineering thefts targeting elderly American victims. The broader cluster was estimated to have stolen over $1M from victims since 2025.”

“New ZachXBT reporting from June 19, 2026, provides expanded on-chain evidence for the Aman Kesar case already in the AVOID.NET corpus. ZachXBT connected Kesar's frozen 5.73 BTC (~$475,000) held by Changelly to a broader cluster of elderly-targeting social engineering thefts totaling over $1 million from U.S. victims since 2025. The investigation also identified 'Mr. Parveen' as the likely orchestrator above Kesar, who appears to be acting as a money mule. This reporting meaningfully expands the known scope and adds a named superior in the network.”
