The scammer reached out to me via telegram chat to invest in cryptocurrency, promising to teach me each step of the way. When making a withdrawal on the investment website however, customer service has mentioned I owed 33,000 in taxes to make a withdrawal on my account under a short time frame. I have not sent in a payment and have only lost 16,912 USD at this time but I am worried about identity theft being that they have my personal information.

A total nightmare...

A friend on Instagram posted that he invested $1000 and received $10k within 6 hours. I liked the post and immediately his “investor” Rachel Hem requested to follow me so I accepted (not knowing that my friend’s account had been hacked) I messaged him on IG to see if it was legit and he responded yes (not really him). So I messaged back and forth with Rachel for a bit getting information about the process and she said it was guaranteed. It was called mining and it was different than investing in bitcoin. I could use the money and trusting my friend I decided to do it. So I went and withdrew the $1000 from my bank and went to a bitcoin atm to start the process. Rachel was on IG guiding me the entire way. I set up the account on Minemud.com and my $1000 is sitting in that account or at least it looks like it is. When she asked for $3000 more for mining fees I decided to text my friend (not through IG) and he told me his account was hacked and it was all a scam. I want my $1000 back. I emailed [email protected] I haven’t heard back as of yet. I’m thinking that is a scam website as well. Please help me!

I was approached by a trading account manager online I was following on social media who said I could do a weekend trade with her for a profit. I traded and wanted to make a withdrawal and the person convinced me to trade long term up to 100k and was asking me to buy crypto currency through a bitcoin ATM and would trade for a profit so I could withdrawal a larger amount. By the time I wanted to withdrawal from my trading account the account manager was asking me to share private information the website of a bitcoin wallet 12 word phrase and QR code that was stated on the website not to be shared in order to withdrawl my money. I tried communicating to the trading platform about my circumstance with my trading account manager and how I didn't feel comfortable with how they were asking me for private information not to be shared in order to make my withdrawl and that I was concernedthat my trading account manager was tryint to scam me out of my trading profits. The trading platform response to my complaint was to settle the dispute with my trading account manager and work it out. I tried several times but got no response back from my trading account manager or the trading platform about how to settle my complaint or how to withdrawal my funds from my trading account.

His name on WhatsApp was Avi, I thought it was Avi from You Tube but it is an imposter. He asked me if I had crypto, I said yes, he said would you like to Invest in Crypto to make money, I said, OK. Remember, I thought I was dealing with a honest person. He told me to send him $1000.00 in Crypto, I did. He sent me a website to login to so I could see what my investment was making. It was making money, he said send him $3000.00 in bitcoin, I did, I sent him another $3700.00, $800.00 in Shib, another $490.00 in Shib. I asked to withdraw my money out, I had to pay the 490.00 in Shib so I could withdraw $8100.00, it didn't work, he said Country error, he wanted another $500.00 in crypto to try again, I said NO. They just keep making excuses as to why you can't withdraw money. It's a scam!

This scammer posed as someone I know who has recently left our company and started his own business. They contacted me through his officially listed twitter account and directed me to contact them via Telegram. They provided me with this website saying that their new business is using this site to offer financial advice on crypto and international currencies. Because I've known this person for years, I did not question it. I transferred a small amount of funds to start with and they kept showing investments going up every day, but no details of transactions. They also kept asking to bring in more money based on how well the account was already doing. I suspected that it's fraud at that point and requested a withdrawal. I was told to pay a fee to withdraw my own money and the amount they indicated that I earned was disproportionately high. This is when I understood it's fraud and confronted the person, at which time they have changed their ID on Telegram to someone else and have stopped responding. DO NOT trust this website or anyone working with them, even if they appear to be someone you are familiar with

I was contacted on instagram by Christian discussing forex trading and sent him 200 on cash app for my initial investment. He said he would do the trading for me at a 95/5 profit split. When it came time to withdrawal my fake account was at 9300. I said I would withdrawal 8500 and refund nicest the rest. I then got an email to cover a TTP for 1000 which is some tax thing that I was told would be reimbursed to me with my profits. At this point I had done more research and knew it was a scam and refused to send any more money. I told him to cover the 1000 out of the 9300 profits and he said they were unable to do that. He then asked me how much money I had and said he would cover the rest to make the 1000. I have refused to send anymore money and now am reporting. The customer service chat on the broker site does not work.

I joined a trading group on WhatsApp and made a wire transfer to my crypto.com account. I bought and transferred USDT to my trading account. I made profit and it was time to withdraw my 236,737 USDT. They asked me to pay 10% for Taxes and I did. They asked me to give them my withdrawal address on my crypto.com address and i sent it. The funds never arrived on my wallet after more than 2 weeks. The company's Assistant who kept me asking to send money for taxes, deposit and fees does not communicate on WhatsApp with me anymore.

I was contacted by a trustworthy friend to reach out to a coach for Forex, Flextrade. My friend vouched for this woman. She signed me up on https://flextradingfx.com. I watch the money grow. She told me to withdrawal the money when it accumulated a profit of 10,000. When I tried to withdraw they asked for fees, which I thought was normal. I didn’t know of the fees so it took me sometime to acquire the money. As the money kept stacking up flextrade kept asking for fees in order for me to withdrawal my money. At first I needed to buy a membership, then I needed to upgrade my account because there was over 20,000 then I needed to pay tax fees. I lost about 8,000$ including my savings and my retirement with a baby on the way. I am distraught. Please don’t fall for this.
