A self-proclaimed crypto rugpuller who has been criticised for token projects that appeared to exploit kids with cancer claims he was robbed of $14,000 (£10,491) by a group of Australian girls in Bali. Ronnie Magrehbi said the incident happened after he handed his unlocked phone to a stranger at a beach club.

The news came after Magrehbi shared footage of himself drinking shots with a group of female strangers he had met on the Indonesian island. According to Magrehbi, he gave his phone to one woman so she could look up and follow her Instagram account.
