Brooklyn’s District Attorney’s Office has dismantled 40 fraudulent NFT marketplace websites following a scheme that defrauded an 85-year-old artist of $135,000. The victim was targeted by a scammer posing as an art dealer on LinkedIn, the DA’s office revealed on December 6. The scammer persuaded the artist to mint his work on a counterfeit NFT marketplace designed to mimic the reputable OpenSea platform.
