🦊“THIS WAS COORDINATED AND CALCULATED”: MASSIVE ICE RAID ROCKS MULTIPLE STATES, ATM NETWORKS COMPROMISED, AND A STORY AUTHORITIES ARE TELLING IN PIECES 🚨
Minnesota, Nebraska, and parts of the Midwest woke up this week thinking it was just another polite morning of snow shovels, hotdish leftovers, and people apologizing for breathing too loudly — and then reality slapped them awake with the subtlety of a SWAT team kicking down a door.

According to law enforcement, a Venezuelan gang allegedly linked to terrorism — yes, real-life terrorism, not one of those Netflix scripts — allegedly stole a staggering $40.7 million from U.S. ATMs.

And if that number doesn’t make your jaw drop, the reported one million fentanyl pills hidden alongside the cash certainly will.

It’s the kind of story that sounds like someone’s overcaffeinated fever dream: a transnational criminal network turning ordinary ATMs into cash-spitting slot machines while federal agents quietly pieced together a web so tangled it would make a season of Breaking Bad look like a lemonade stand.

The irony? Most people in the affected states were still trying to figure out how to get their morning latte without waiting 20 minutes.

How Do You Steal $40 Million From Machines Nobody Watches?

Apparently, the gang used a technique called “ATM jackpotting,” which is exactly what it sounds like: convincing automated teller machines that it’s payday… for someone else.
