In a previous life I was involved in K&R (kidnap & ransom) insurance. You just pay the ransom and never recover your money, so you price the insurance contracts accordingly.

The police: "we don't prosecute those crimes" , "this is not our juridiction", "why don't you try the FBI?"

I used to work in the Presidio of San Francisco. An ex military base. The only canons left are from the 1800's. I needed to file a police report (car theft), called the Police in San Francisco. OK, what's your address? Sorry, we don't handle those cases, call the Federal Police. Then later we had to file a lawsuit, so based on previous experience we filed in Federal Court. They told us, sorry even though you are on Federal land, you must file in a California court. Go figure.

Just to say that nobody can help our dear crypto bros. BTW did you declare the existence and the amount of your crypto holdings last year? Oops, now you'll regret that police report you filed (goes into waste basket) and you have to deal with the IRS. The crypto world is better than the proverbial kid in the candy store.
