"few BTC", for US this is no money, but for a scammer in a 3rd world country 13 BTC more money than most people do in their lives.

"few BTC" is relative to the value of what they had, not the average income of the average person.

If I sold a 7500 sqft home in San Fransisco for $200,000 you could say the same thing.
