Crypto Influencer found dead in Canadian park several months after abduction  

Mirshahi’s decomposing body was found by a passerby on Oct 30 at the Île-de-la-Visitation park and an autopsy report released yesterday confirmed his identity.

Kevin was abducted on June 21 alongside three others in a condo building in Montreal.

The three friends of his managed to escape but Levin was not so fortunate.

Kevin Mirshahi’s ordeal adds to a growing trend of abduction of crypto founders and influencers by bad actors usually poised towards stealing their assets or recovering huge sums of money.

Last week, another incident involving a crypto founder was recorded. Dean Skurka, the CEO of Canadian-based Wonderfi was reportedly abducted and forced to pay a ransom fee of $1 million for his release.

Investigation into the death of the Canadian-based crypto influencer is still ongoing by the authorities. Only One arrest has been made by the local authorities so far. A 32-year-old woman named Joanie Lepage in August was charged with the first-degree murder of Mirshahi.

“ The person that scammed me with my funded accounts and ran with my 5K USD a couple of weeks ago, aka Kevin Mirshahi, got kidnapped in Montreal 2 days ago! LMAOO Allah is great” Bibi tweeted

Kevin was also known to Québec’s investment regulator, which banned Mirshahi and two others from carrying out activities as a broker or investment adviser in 2021 or soon after.

He was also banned from posting crypto content on Social media. There has been no official word from his family following his demise.
