Less than half an hour after he reportedly committed suicide, McAfee’s Instagram account was mysteriously deleted.
John McAfee’s last post on the platform was a cryptic “Q” that apparently referred to the conspiracy theory group QAnon.
The 75-year-old antivirus’ creator hanged himself in his Barcelona prison cell hours after his extradition to the United States was approved.
He faced charges of tax evasion and over a $13 million cryptocurrency scam. His suspicious death comes after he threatened about exposing “dirt on those in power.”
A couple of years ago, McAfee claimed that American officials were coming for him and showed off a “whackd” tattoo on his arm.
“I got a tattoo today just in case. If I suicide myself, I didn’t. I was whackd. Check my right arm.”
