A woman has appeared in court after trying to pay a darknet assassin in bitcoin to kill her partner. Her attempt failed, not due to high transaction fees or a mempool backlog, but because the hitman was fake. Now, the 58-year-old is facing a possible life sentence for attempted murder.
It is not such a good idea to search for a hitman online, the second mistake is that she used bitcoin, she should have used Monero or some other privacy coin.
i think you are right
