Seems a handful of users had a total of 82 btcs stolen from a scammer thats sends users a passport picture that also has an html file attached that executes codes to drain said account. Be careful.

Yes it happened. See the localbitcoins.com forums. It only scammed sellers who clicked on a malicious image sent to them over LBC.
LBC has closed the exploit and are refunding all of the lost coins.
