A Scottish prisoner tried to organise a £2 million crypto robbery from his cell — Robert Barr sent two accomplices to a couple's home to force them to hand over access to their cryptocurrency wallet.

The couple did not open the door, and two months later guards found messages on Barr's phone that exposed him. A court in Glasgow sentenced Barr to 8 years, and his accomplices to 4 and 5 years.
