On-chain investigator ZachXBT linked an individual known as M1llionz, also known as RichMilly666, to two violent home invasions in France in April 2026. The criminals stole $667K worth of crypto assets. Some of the funds were later laundered through various channels and subsequently frozen. After ZachXBT contacted law enforcement and Tether, the company froze $93K in USDT linked to the attacks.
On April 17, five attackers broke into a victim’s home and used violence, sending several people to the hospital. They stole around 7.2 BTC worth $557K. Three days later, on April 20, another group tied up a victim and threatened them until they handed over approximately $110K in crypto. The stolen bitcoin and other assets were moved from Bitcoin to Ethereum through bridges. Some of the funds then moved through KuCoin deposits, while separate portions were converted into Monero. Funds from both incidents eventually ended up in a single wallet, after which the criminals exchanged around $108K for USDT.

Around $84K was sent directly from the robberies to wallets M1llionz had posted on his Telegram channel EMPIRE in screenshots from Exodus. In one case, he shared an address that received ETH from the April robbery. In another, he posted a video showing a large ETH transfer that was also linked to the stolen funds. The channel was also used to openly advertise banking and retail fraud services.
At the same time, M1llionz flaunted a lavish lifestyle, including hotels, flights, cars, and designer goods, while blurring his face in photos. In recent weeks, he sharply reduced his activity on TikTok and Telegram and made his posts private.
OSINT analysis linked him to several email addresses and possible real names: Mamane Kante and Yadali Kouyate. ZachXBT also identified two other attacks connected to his OTC addresses through two transaction hops.
The investigator said that home invasions are one of his priority areas of work. He has already helped freeze seven-figure sums linked to incidents in the US and Europe and has identified several perpetrators.
“French law enforcement is willing to help victims, although ineffective laws sometimes make it difficult to achieve a final result,” ZachXBT wrote.
