New reports from today indicate that this Indian tanker fell for a fake IRGC crypto scam. They paid USDT to the scammers, thinking they could now pass through freely, and got shot at by the real IRGC forces.

First time a crypto transaction led directly to maritime warfare? 💀

"A crypto scam recently led to an Iranian gunboat firing on an oil tanker attempting to navigate the Hormuz Strait, according to reports.

Fraudulent messages have been sent to shipping firms with vessels stranded due to the blockade. These messages falsely claim to be from Iranian authorities, requesting tolls be paid in bitcoin or the USDT stablecoin for safe passage.

At least one Indian-flagged tanker reportedly fell victim to this scam, paid the cryptocurrency, and attempted to pass through the Strait last week, only to be attacked by Iranian forces."
