They have my driver's license information to verify my identity. The scammer approach me back in 2022 on Instagram her name is Kelli Prekins or Kelly Perkins about getting to bitcoin. I eventually did start she assured me that the 1st company would triple my money. I just kept contributing without getting my payout. Then I cut my losses, left trying to get my funds. Then maybe 6 months to 1year she contacts me again about a better company- Vixionxpert.com. They are just the same as the other company. At 1stbI had to pay 1 fee then get my funds. Then after the funds were almost tripled I had to start paying fees, tax free, upgrade fees, tlc free, Asking me to pay all these fees after fees. Delaying the process. There is about 85k in potential profit + 6,500k in a diamond upgrade area, plus potential 9k+ in bonus funds with about 30-37k in deposits to the company. Now there is a fee of $5,500k due to a HTC FREE. I initially did this for my family, to flip funds in order to increase our monies. Now I regret all of this.

I call the Elon Mast they connected me with this company that was supposed to be legitimate. I spoke with Joshua he collected the money. Then they transferred me with what it supposed to be my agent. Randy Knutson trader ID #14448103. He explained that the system was designed as an AI so we deposit the money let it set and collect. And that if we ever needed any money it would be take 24 hrs after they make sure it was us withdrawing the money. So we told him we will give it a try. After 2 months I tried to withdraw $300 dollars just to learn the process of the withdrawal. I’m not to savvy on computers. That was in. November 2023. He was calling and making us see the growth of the income and try to convince us on depositing more money. I have a broken back, pelvis wrist and 6 ribs. And a disabled person. So I tried to make a bit money for my children education. I was going to deposit $10,000 dollars and let it grow. He convinced me with the numbers he was giving us. But when we tried to do the $ 300 dollars withdrawal in November. He started making excuses. He said that all the contracts were being deposited so there was no money that I need it to wait. Time pass and he give me more excuses. So when I told him that I was canceling the account that I wanted my money back. All of the sudden I had no contact with nobody from the company neither from my supposed agent nor from anybody from Graystone’s support area. I backed track and started contacting Joshua he tried to help. But after a few emails the communication stopped as well. I tried calling the company there’s always an answering machine. I get calls from the. Ranch in Lo don England supposedly but they called every time at 4 am or earlier. and when I picked the phone and answered there is no response neither when they called from New York nor England we even fila form they made us send the form to Tandy Knutson and since November 2024. I’ve been trying to get my money but they don’t give it to me. Is just sitting in the account. They can’t take it because I keep changing password every day. But they do not invest it. Nor try to make me more money. I can see my mi ey there on there company platform. All I want is my 2000 dollars back. That’s all I want so that I can put it back on my children’s college founds. I can’t believe that this people take money from disabled people like me who needs every cent he earns for my young children. I believe in Karma and Karma will hit them 10000 times fold and karma hits to the most precious thing or person they love. They will see. Please can you help. All we want is our money back. Please just return our money back.

I Invested in this Forex site over $11,500. They made over $200,000 in Bitcoin, in profits. Which was due to me. After the fact, the trader tells me I owe a 25% fee, and attempts to take 100% of the profit. I told him I would not spend another dime and that he needed to fix this, as he did not disclose this prior to the transaction. This is not only deceptive business practices, but plain theft. Their company ignored my complaint and said they didn't care if I flagged this to the Better Business Bureau.

The scammer contacted me via a Discord community. DerrinlewisolOfficial contacted me. He was impersonating the Administrator of the Discord. We spoke and he gave me a link to AstonOptions.com. I really believed I was speaking to the real Darren Lewis. He walked me through the process and I transferred bitcoin from my Crypto account. I tried to speak to an employee but they never identified themselves and gave vague answers. There is no customer service number. I lost my money.

I recently fell victim to a Bitcoin scam where I lost money. The scammers are now demanding tax payment, which I find suspicious. I've asked for my money back, but they insist on the tax. You help me get my money back its around 15k? I have evidence of the scam I was trading and selling bitcoin from September 2023 untill November 2023 and i was sending them via cash app and my bank account. This is their email and I included in the attachment [email protected] Thank you.

We stayed Facebook friends but with limited connection. her account must have been hacked and the hacker is using her profile and create a reputation as a Cryptocurrency investor and cracking the code of trading, I was sent then invitation to become part of her platform investor, and looking into her profile, it has a back story of countless others she helped gain financial freedom. While I was skeptical still ended up investing a bit. until I finally asked someone, I knew who is Closed to the real owner of the account was. and find out it was a complete scam.

This is a cryptocurrency contract trading platform. The client joins a program called 1V1 which allows trading with the assistance of an analyst for a 7 day period. Minimum investment is $10,000 USD. The agreement is that the client will pay 10% commission to his analyst at the end of the trading period. Instead of deducting from the client’s account, the broker requests more money to pay for the commission and fees, which is mentioned at the very end of trading period with the promise that you will be able to withdraw all your assets including cash and profits. Profits may easily come to 20X the investment, so the commission may be very high. If you don’t pay by another cryptocurrency transfer, your account is frozen and you lose all which can mean hundreds of thousands.

They claim to be an investment company for Poinkcr Group Limited with their leader Warren Miller. They teach about investment and have you open an account with them at www.pnxfinance.com and deposit either cash or crypto. They then give you trading signals from time to time while also urging you to continue depositing money into your account with them. I have tried to withdraw the money but the system will not let you. They keep telling their clients to withdraw funds they need to add more money for paying taxes which does not add up. They have a WhatsApp group called 'We are The Champions A1' where they communicate with members.

Subject: Warning Bitflyer- Risk of Scam and Phishing

Dear friends and contacts,

I want to alert you to a cunning and sophisticated scam that I recently encountered, resulting in significant financial losses for both myself and a close friend.

Scammers have created a fraudulent website that perfectly mimics the official La Poste site, only altering the extension of the genuine site. Instead of ending with .fr, the fraudulent site uses extensions such as .trade or .global or now https://bitflyer.exchange. These criminals go as far as sending emails from addresses that appear to be from the official site, with the extension .fR instead of .fr, making the fraud particularly challenging to detect.

Unfortunately, I fell victim to this scam and lost a considerable amount, just like my friend. It is crucial to be extremely vigilant when interacting online and to meticulously verify web addresses, even if emails seem legitimate.

I strongly encourage you to share this information with your loved ones and raise awareness in our community. Together, we can contribute to preventing others from falling into the trap of these scammers.

Feel free to contact me if you have any doubts about a website or online communication.

Let’s stay united and protect each other.

The platform was pbex. I only traded short term 30 or 60 seconds. Made up to about $8400 in profit. Could only wirhdraw twice then it asked for $3500 VIP2 and it would give me back the $3500. The user named Larina Rina on Telegram told me when to trade. All I can do now is save $3500 and hope that I can withdraw all the money but there is a chance I lose it.

*** ********* ******** my employee, invested $4800 in a crypto plan in September and was supposed to earn $80,000 come February, 2024. In October or November, Martha Cely (from the company) started asking him to pay $1200 so he could get his investment profits immediately rather than waiting until February. She made contact with *** ******* via What's App two weeks ago and said she would pay $600 and Mr. Sanchez would pay the remaining $600. At my urging, I suggested to *** ******** that he not send them any more money until I was able to research the firm. I found sufficient information browisng through their website and when calling the number on the site

that showed me that this firm and its offerings are highly suspect. On Monday, (the 27th), they sent him a unilateral contract that he would have to pay that $600 for that early distribution but had only until November 30th to do so or he would forfeit his original $4,800. In other words, the option to pay nothing more now and wait until February for is profits was suddenly one yanked off the table. The contract was totally illegal (at least in California) because of its unilateralness and it had no place for Mr. Sanchez to sign nor did it request his signature anywhere on the document even though it was titled "Agreement Between CryptoMarketFace and *******". That recent agreement was dated November 27th 2023. The one signature from the firm was illegible. Lastly, I tried calling their number on Monday or Tuesday and the person who answered said there is no company at this number, it was the answerer's home phone. I called today and when it was answered, I heard a lady yelling in the background, then a man's voice. I said "hello" and he hung up the phone on me. I then called back immediately

and got a voice mail. Upon going back to their website before and again this morning, I tried clicking on various places throughout their main page and in many got 404 messages or no movement at all.

I invested more than $5000 on BMclub platform and joined a program called 1V1 which guaranteed profits with help from an analyst who worked on 10% commission. The program would last 7 days during which no withdrawal could be made. On the 5th day, I was removed from the investment group based on suspicious activities from my part which was never proven or demonstrated. At that point the program was stopped and I was instructed to pay my analyst with another crypto transfer. I refused claiming that BMCLUB already had accumulated 10X the capital required to pay the commission. I added that as per CFTC, legitimate brokers will deduct fees and commission from client’s account and will not demand more money to release earnings or capital. After several exchanges and arguments, I propose that BMclub let me withdraw half of my account and secure the remaining as collateral till I complete payment of the commission. Despite all my efforts to make them understand that they kept all leverage, I could not abide by their rules because of the complete lack of protection on my side. I asked them to come up with a proposal that would provide me with the assurance that they would in turn abide by their own rules. They are now threatening me of having to deal with their lawyers for default payment. I have no objection to making the payment in due course but not under the current conditions since if they are a scammer and or decide not to follow through with their promises over a social media, I will have lost even more without recourse. From all the discussions I’ve had and the sensible proposals I made to solve our disagreement and the given the irrational way they treat the issue always asking for more money, I can only conclude that I am the victim of a scam. More screenshots of our exchange are available upon request.

Furthermore they have blocked my two sons’ account thus preventing them from withdrawing what they have left (around $9500) till I send more money to pay my analyst’s commission. Total withheld is close to $78,000.

The two I talked to were Lisa Reginald and Chiara May. They contacted me about a bitcoin trading opportunity. All I had to do was open an account with $500 and I could start trading. Chiara would guide my trades and I would earn life changing money. After I made some trades i decided to cash out. Chiara told me I had to pay a $@,500 fee to get my money out. I was reluctant but paid the fee. This I was told I needed to join the trading platform to make withdraws. It would cost $3,000 more to join and be able to collect the $37750 I supposedly earned. I paid $1,500 dollars but was then told I may be getting scammed. I'm trying to determine if this is a legitimate company and if I should pay the last $1500 to get my pay out or am i being scammed. Is there any info you have about this organization. Any information you may have would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks, **** ****** ******** *** ******************** ************

Scam: I think this Company based in New Zealand? is set up to do Bitcoin Mining. Using my CashApp account I am told that if I purchase a certain amount of Bitcoin I will yield a sizable profit. I am given a mining ID# to use to send the money from CashApp to stockflox.com. Then I go to the stockflox website & I can actually see my purchase increase on the Dashboard when transactions are made @2pm then at 6pm. Then you’re suppose to withdraw my balance from the dashboard by adding my bank account info to where the money will be deposited. 1st time to withdraw I had to pay up front $2500 IRS tax fee to be approved by the IRS. Then I had to upgrade my account to “Silver-Gold-Diamond or Ruby” to ensure that the trading account manager Cherice Mulligan initiate payment into my trading account using my mining ID. I paid $3000 to upgrade to Silver because of high activity in my account. Account manager never did released my profits. Come to find that there’s 3 more fees involved before my profits are released. Commission, Broker Access fee, I have to pay Cost of Transfer “COT”fees all totaling another $2500 that should be made to the company’s trading wallet which my account manager will give me. Suffice it to say I already spent over $10,000 trying to collect my profits which I don’t think they will ever release to me. I proceeded to pay the final fee, I paid some but didn’t follow thru with the remaining fee. I don’t think they plan on releasing any of my profits after I struggled to pay the fees. I’m just FEE’D-UP Please investigate CashApp & Stockflox.com & Cherice Mulligan. Something is very wrong here. I ask to finish pay off the fees with the profits but they’re not having that. I might of been too trusting, thinking this was legit. But I need my money or profits back which ever can be done.

I have proof of all transactions made.

Don't fall for the scam broker trap like I did! I invested my hard-earned money with them and thought it was a surefire way to make some serious cash. But boy, was I wrong. Instead of seeing returns, all I got was disappointment and regret. These so-called "brokers" promised the world - fast profits, expert advice, and a smooth trading experience. As soon as I deposited my money, communication became nonexistent. Trades went south, funds mysteriously disappeared, and any attempt to reach out for help was met with silence. If you've fallen victim to a scam broker too, don't despair. BROADOAK-CAPITAL COM came to my rescue after i did some thorough research, they did their investigation and got me my money in weeks . Dont just sit on your hands and let them walk all over you.
