Bitcoin unfortunately makes this feat very difficult to verify. We will never truly know how much of that $24,000 the poster controlled in the first place.
The blockchain has timestamps, so actually you can verify quite easily. Unless, for some reason, the individual is sending bitcoins to himself...

They're worse because they're not human-readable. It's easier to trick someone into scanning the wrong QR code than it is to trick someone into sending money to the wrong url, email address, phone number, etc.
I wouldn't exactly call bitcoin addresses human-readable either.

That is the implication. He got sent very large sums of Bitcoin, you would expect that he'd just get a bunch of small ones, but he got 2-3 large ones ($5,000 a piece).
