It can be said that these robbers didn't find out first and just took it with the hope that there was something that could be used as money in it
For some, including for me, this was actually funny because it turns out that robbing also requires a big enough plan so that they get results lol.
But it will be a different story with people who actually understand and are already in bitcoin because indeed they must be looking for other ways as has happened in some cases where someone was asked to hand over their wallet or was told to transfer their assets and indeed things like this can happen now and the latest in my country there is also something like this where a tourist is exposed to this kind of thing.
It is really funny, but funny enough it requires more plans and strategies for you to be able to execute a successful robbery than to do a legitimate business. Do you think that armed robber or even scammers do not do necessary planning before they can be successful in one robbery or scam?
Actually it's possible like because they also actually saw from this ATM robbery that their plan was good and they weren't caught when they tried to bring the empty machine but indeed in this case it was their ignorance about bitcoin that made them fail but that doesn't mean their plan was to rob it failed because they managed to thwart the ATM even though it was just useless because they didn't look further at what bitcoin was like but the point of the plan was definitely there.
Imagine cheating by telephone without planning, they will not succeed in tricking their victims if indeed there is no plan and the parts that must be carried out by the accomplice.
If they tell you what they passed through in robbery, you will not believe. Someone that is doing a legitimate business is backed by law and can plan whatever he wants openly and seek for suggestions.
In this condition, we have our own circle of friends, and don't think that scammers don't have that kind of friendship, because the network could be bigger than expected, so it's possible to find information in advance with those who have done it, even though we may not know how. but they certainly won't move without knowing the loopholes and without professional guidance, right?
