A Twitch streamer took to Twitter to inform her fans that she was 'being robbed at gunpoint' as three armed men broke into her home.
Kaitlyn Siragusa, who goes by Amouranth online, detailed how she was dragged out of bed by masked men who demanded that she transfer them her cryptocurrency, during the invasion that took place at her property in Houston, Texas, on Sunday (March 2).
Having been handed her phone to sign into her account, with a gun to her head, she opted to tweet for help rather than dial 911 as to not arise suspicion.

At 10.55pm Central Standard Time, the streamer tweeted: "I’m being too robbed at gunpont."
Before following up a minute later with: "I believe I shot one of them they wanted crypto is what they were yelling they pulled me out of bed."
In November, Siragusa shared a screenshot with her followers that revealed she owned more than $20 million in Bitcoin, as well as just shy of $80,000 of the digital coin Ethereum.
Then at 11.29pm, she notified fans that she was under no more harm. Tweeting: "This was a home invasion swat here now I’m safe."

Just minutes later she typed: "I’m covered in blood but only some of it is mine I’ll update yall later but I’m safe now."
While explaining why she didn't call the police, she wrote: "Was at gun point they gave me phone and said log in with gun to my head and I tweeted because calling would be a death sentence."
The following morning (March 3), the 31-year-old posted surveillance footage of the invasion which depicted three men running into her property, before running out - with one of them yelling that he had been shot while inside the Texan's home.
"3 gun men. He screams 'I got shot I got shot' after. I’m not supposed to post the scene itself, nor the casing which are now evidence," she posted.
"They beat me before this video and pistol whipped me the pummeling felt like it would never end and I protected my head by putting my arms up like I Learned how to do in boxing, blood was streaming down my head and my hands were beat brown.
"They brought duct tape and masks and were armed with handguns."
Siragusa also posted pictures of her bedroom door that the intruders shot at to break during the invasion, as well as a further tweet that explained that forensics had paid her a visit to test the blood from the masked man who claimed to have been hit.
"A trail of his blood all the way along driveway forensic testing it," she tweeted.
Houston Police Officers' Union issued the following statement: "If you have any information related to this aggravated robbery / home invasion, contact the Houston Police Robbery Division or Crime Stoppers of Houston."
