Truglia pleaded guilty in 2021 to participating in a scam against Michael Terpin, CEO of blockchain consulting firm Transform Group. The scheme gained access to Terpins cryptocurrency account by tricking telecommunications company employees into transferring Terpins phone number to a SIM card controlled by hackers. Truglia was responsible for converting the stolen funds into Bitcoin. (TechinAsia)
