Notes and record state
Record note
Terminal handling uses the 2019-06-17 disappearance marker. Public inactive / scam-style reporting followed on 2019-06-27 and is preserved in evidence. Death reason is mapped to scam_rug because public reporting and the exchange review describe classic exit-scam characteristics after blocked withdrawals and deletion of the website and social accounts.
