ZachXBT Tiffany Milanovich Report: $5M Crypto Theft Claims
ZachXBT Tiffany Milanovich allegations have drawn attention across the crypto security community after the on-chain investigator claimed a US-based threat actor helped steal at least $5 million in digital assets.
According to ZachXBT’s report, Tiffany Milanovich allegedly worked as a “caller” in a wider group that targeted crypto users. The group reportedly posed as customer support representatives for hardware wallets and centralized exchanges. Victims then lost access to funds after engaging with fake support messages, spoofed emails, or fraudulent calls.
The claims remain allegations unless confirmed by law enforcement or court records. However, the evidence trail described by ZachXBT includes blockchain transactions, chat logs, call recordings, Telegram activity, and social media posts.
For readers following crypto crime cases, this report adds another warning sign. Social engineering remains one of the most effective ways attackers steal cryptocurrency. You can also read our internal guide on crypto security and our explainer on phishing scams.
ZachXBT Tiffany Milanovich Allegations, Explained
ZachXBT said Milanovich played a phone-based role in the alleged theft operation. In these schemes, callers contact victims while pretending to represent trusted companies. They may claim there is a wallet issue, exchange problem, security alert, or urgent account risk.
The goal is simple. Attackers try to pressure victims into revealing sensitive details or approving harmful actions. Once victims comply, attackers can drain wallets or move funds from exchange accounts.
ZachXBT also alleged that Milanovich mocked victims after their funds disappeared. The report claims she shared stolen balances, luxury purchases, and gambling activity in private chats and on social media.
That behavior, if accurate, shows why investigators focus on more than wallet addresses. Public posts, voice recordings, usernames, exchange activity, and spending patterns can all support an on-chain investigation.
Major Incidents Named in the Report
One highlighted case reportedly took place in June 2026. ZachXBT said a victim lost about $1.2 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum from a Trezor wallet after receiving a spoofed BitcoinIRA email. The email allegedly used the alias “Patricia Massie.”
The report then traced the movement of stolen funds. ZachXBT claimed Milanovich and associates later discussed the haul in Telegram groups. He also listed wallet addresses connected to the case and said much of the crypto remained dormant on-chain at the time of publication.
Another alleged incident dates to October 2025. In that case, a victim reportedly lost around $500,000 in Bitcoin from a Coinbase account. ZachXBT shared recordings in which Milanovich allegedly complained about her share of the proceeds. He also referenced a screenshot tied to the withdrawal.
A February 2026 incident added more context. ZachXBT said Milanovich joined a Discord call with another threat actor and flexed wallet balances. One address linked to the activity reportedly held a large DAI balance funded through exchange activity involving Monero.
Connections to Other Crypto Theft Claims
The ZachXBT Tiffany Milanovich report also connected her to John Daghita, known online as “Lick.” ZachXBT had previously linked Daghita to a separate alleged theft involving crypto assets seized by the US government.
According to the new report, Milanovich recorded a call with Daghita and shared it to mock him. Daghita then allegedly posted her name in a Telegram channel.
ZachXBT also named aliases including “bled” and “harm” as possible infrastructure providers. These claims suggest the alleged operation involved more than one caller or wallet controller.
The report further stated that Milanovich gambled with victim funds on a crypto casino. After ZachXBT submitted evidence, the platform Shuffle reportedly reviewed the account and moved to lock it.
Why Fake Support Scams Keep Working
Fake support scams work because they create urgency. A victim may receive a call, text, email, or social message claiming their account is at risk. The attacker then pushes the victim to act quickly.
Hardware wallet users face similar risks. Trezor warns users never to share a wallet backup, PIN, or passphrase. Coinbase also warns that scammers may impersonate customer support teams to steal crypto. The FTC lists impersonation scams as a major consumer threat.
The lesson is clear. Real support teams do not need your seed phrase. They also should not ask you to move funds to a “safe” wallet. Any request like that should raise an immediate red flag.

Evidence Trail Raises Accountability Questions
ZachXBT said Milanovich left a broad paper trail. That alleged trail includes chat logs, call recordings, social posts, gambling activity, wallet addresses, and screenshots.
He also shared material that appeared to show a search and seizure warrant in Connecticut. The warrant reportedly predated some later incidents. That detail may increase scrutiny if investigators confirm the timeline.
At the same time, readers should separate public allegations from legal outcomes. As of publication, no independent public report has confirmed an arrest or formal charge tied to these specific allegations.
What Crypto Users Should Do Now
Crypto users should treat this case as a reminder to tighten security habits.
Never share a seed phrase, recovery phrase, private key, PIN, or two-factor code. Do not trust inbound calls claiming to come from a wallet provider or exchange. Instead, open the official website yourself and contact support through verified channels.
Users should also avoid clicking urgent email links. Attackers often spoof trusted brands and create fake login pages. When in doubt, stop the conversation and verify the request independently.
The ZachXBT Tiffany Milanovich allegations show how social engineering can turn one phone call into a major financial loss. Whether this case leads to legal action or not, the pattern is already familiar. Attackers target trust first. The money moves only after the victim believes the lie.
