North Carolina to mandate full refunds for crypto kiosk fraud victims from 2027
- —New customers can recover the full deposit if fraud is confirmed within 30 days
- —Daily limits: $2,000 for new customers, $5,000 for existing ones
- —Fees and spread cannot exceed 12% of the transaction
- —FBI logged 13,460 crypto kiosk fraud complaints totaling $389M in 2025
Why it matters: The state is the first to offer full refunds to new customers, a rule that could deter kiosk operators and set a template for other states.
