A suspicious wallet (0xB8b4...3714) has been flagged for potentially funneling massive amounts of cryptocurrency through privacy mixers. We're talking about 2,479.1 ETH—roughly $7.9M—cycling through the system. Here's where it gets interesting: the initial funds appear to have originated from multiple TRON-based wallets before being bridged over to Ethereum. Chain tracking suggests these movements correlate with a "Pig-Butchering" scam operation, where victims are lured into fake investment schemes and gradually bled dry. The use of cross-chain bridges to obscure the money trail, combined with mixing services, points to deliberate obfuscation efforts. This kind of pattern typically indicates either advanced fraud rings or organized financial crime. If you're monitoring large transactions or managing liquidity on major chains, keep an eye on unusual bridging activity and mixing contract interactions—they're often red flags worth investigating.

Here's the translation to en-US: Here we go again with the same old tricks... cross-chain bridges + mixing services, dirty money laundering is really slick these days. Pig-butchering scams are getting increasingly rampant, and they dare to move even $79M without fear of being tracked? Using such an obvious TRON to ETH bridge route? On-chain data is this transparent, and people still think they can get away with it? By the way, can this money be recovered, or has it become unclaimed assets again...

ngl, that tron→eth bridge pattern is textbook obfuscation playbook. seen this exact routing signature before during the poly network postmortem... never ends well. 7.9m through mixers though? that's some serious counter-party risk nobody wants to touch. the pig-butchering angle makes it worse—coordinated scam infrastructure always leaves these breadcrumb trails. stay paranoid out there.

$7.9 million money laundering? Directly bridging to Ethereum and then mixing coins—this method is indeed ruthless. Pig slaughter schemes can never escape on-chain footprints.

Damn it, it's the pig butchering scam again. These fraudsters really will stop at nothing.

It's the same old trick again—cross-chain money laundering + mixers, really impressive. With such a large sum of 7.9 million USD, don't they know to hide it well? --- Pig butchering scams will never die. It's always the same pattern: bridging from TRON to Ethereum. When will they catch these people? --- NGL, the operation method of this 0xB8b4 wallet looks too professional. Not something just any scammer can pull off; it must be organized. --- 2,479 ETH. How many people would have to be scammed to accumulate that... --- Looking at this pattern, it's truly classic organized crime—mixer + bridge as double insurance, but they still got exposed haha. --- I just want to know when this money can be frozen, or if we have to go through another fruitless effort. --- Cross-chain bridging is really a paradise for criminals. On-chain transparency is a joke. --- It's always like this—large transactions look suspicious right away. How come the exchange's risk control is so poor?

Pig slaughtering scheme is back? These people really know how to play, even deliberately cross-chain mixed coins. Why are they so persistent?
