The scammers were in full belief that Kitboga's cryptocurrency transfer service was legitimate. The scammers had a second victim who was unable to transfer her cryptocurrency to the scammers. The scammers instructed the victim to contact both Kraken as well as Kitboga's service to help complete her bitcoin transfer.

The remaining mystery for me is how the second victim was able to repeat Kitboga's email address to Kraken support. It's possible that the fake transfer site included this email address somewhere on the page.
