The video tutorial showed followers how to buy Ethereum on a centralized exchange, transfer it to a site called lzfu.com where the price of Ethereum would be lower, and then convert the Ethereum into USDT for a profit. The channel said that users could execute this trade with up to $800,000 of Ethereum each day

Estimated loss: $3,000
