They contact you through an individuals post. MoneyMotive888 on X. They pretend to be this individual and direct you to a link to telegram. Where they state you can copy trade this mans trades by joining a website called Theedgetrades.com. You will be instructed to deposit Bitcoin in your account. Then copy the trader MoneyMotive which will last 2 weeks per session. After your first 2 weeks they will email you for a test withdraw which will a small amount to gain your trust to show it works. The whole time they say there commission will come out of the profits but in reality they will request you deposit the 20% commission so you can get your profits. This site does not pay you anything just wants you to keep depositing. If you put any money in with these people you will never see it again.

Receiced email this morning from [email protected] thanking me for a bitcoin purchase. An invoice supposedly from Paypal showing payment for $876.20. I have contacted Paypal directly and forwarded the email to their phishing department. I opened the attachment but did not call them at the 800 number they supplied, so I don't believe they have any of my personal information.

I heard a lot of YouTubers commenting on this broker who helped them win huge investment returns. I thought it was real considering the many YouTube videos I see of people who make heavy passive income in a short term basis, even through investing. I contacted her through her gmail address [email protected], and she identifies herself as Catalina Vladamir. She then told me she will contact me on Whatsapp, and the number she used was 1-419-855-4323. She linked me to the investment platform to show the profit, and I was convinced it was real and that I pay her 20 percent of the profit, which was fine by me. I invested 500 dollars at first with her. I purchased Bitcoin on Kraken using my bank account. Later on, she told me to purchase a trading signal to boost profit for 220 dollars as she claimed her clients do that. Then, she asked me to pay a 20 percent commission to get the profit, and I did so, but then, she made up other excuses to prevent withdrawal to my Kraken bitcoin wallet. She then told me to contact a man who goes by the name, John Mack, on Whatsapp using 1-312-960-4323. He claims to be a withdrawal agent for Cashapp, and he told me he would send me my profit in addition to the fees I paid for them minus the 20 percent commission if I paid a pending balance of 2500, which I did. After that, he made up an internal tax revenue service for 1500 the next day, and I contacted cashapp to see if I was supposed to receive any pending payment, but they said no, and told me it might be a scam when I sent them the screenshot of the "pending payment" John Mack sent me. To this day, he is still spamming me constantly on Whatsapp, while I have not replied back to this messages. He even tries to call me, and at one time, he sent me seven missed calls within a 5-minute span. I would block them both if I could, but I am afraid of what they would do considering they might have my address since I had to send in my drivers license to verify with the fake investment platform. I already reported them to the police, ftc, and ic3. I even reported them to kraken, but unfortunately, they did nothing to stop the scammers and instead closed down my bitcoin wallet account.

The two bitcoin wallet addresses of the scammers are bc1qc9zzr9cqvrjf9cxfj5fy79kf7vwhmgfch6k8dt and

I had Ab trades do a trade for me for Bitcoin, he told me my original price was 2g for him to get the money I made from him back into my wallet. He lied and demanded more, when my friend paid Ab trades his balance, he took the money and blocked her. He is demanding more money then what was agreed. And he put my 15g into a wallet that I could not access.

A Friend of mine on Facebook reached out to me and asked what I would do with 5,000$ I responded with "well I'd fill my home with groceries, pay some bills and pay my car down" I then said "why?" They responded with "there's a company giving financial relief give me your cashtag" I said "absolutely not I'm not doing this scam" she then insisted it was not a scam and she sent me pictures of other people receiving money. The process was through Bitcoin. I would add money to cashapp, buy Bitcoin and sell it to this address "bc1q8fknzrlgyxm6xupyaa4pa47kalqfyhvdfz2exx" which I thought was weird but I figured they didn't ask for any personal information, they weren't trying to hack into my social media accounts so hey maybe this was kind of legit. In the moment it kind of made sense if a company had Bitcoin and shared the profit with people who were struggling. I was still super hesitant. But after talking back and forth for two days I decided to just see what would happen. I then had to text a random number for "confirmation" and that's when I knew. This person on the other end proceeded to tell me "the IRS sent me an email saying I had to pay taxes on the Bitcoin money" and that they needed "50 more dollars to release my payment" I confronted this person and they still said they weren't hacked and it was not a scam. They sent me a video of a random person saying it was a legit company. So I took it upon myself to reach out to her significant other, he explained to me her account was hacked she's locked out of Facebook and the police cannot do anything about it. Needless to say, I fell for a scam because it was someone on Facebook I trusted. I can make my 70$ back but it saddens me to think about anyone else they've scammed. I have 3 children I rolled the dice on this one. And it ended exactly how I thought it would.

I saw one of my friends from high school posted about bitcoin on instagram and how they were doing well, they tagged an instagram account, they posted receipts so it looked real. A few days later he posted a give away for 1,500 to show people that bitcoin was real so i decided to give him a chance and decided to enter the “give away” he asked for my Cashapp so i gave it to him and later he wanted a picture of me linking my profile to an email, he said just the picture to make sure its really me and that i can change it back right after and he also said that they do that so they wont give that give away to the same person twice. So i linked it and took a screenshot sent it to him and i changed the email right after, i changed my password. Then he asked for a video of me saying i won 17,500 and how well i was doing, he basically wanted me to lie and i told him no and i was no longer interested. A few minutes later i got kicked out of my instagram account, phone & email were changed and my account was hacked. EVEN THOUGH i had already changed the information they still managed to hack the account. Thats when i realized my friends account was hacked as well. Later i did a little research and went into the profile they keep tagging as their “coach” and that person is following a ton of people who’s accounts have been hacked as well. Yes it sounded too good to be true, but like i said i knew this person from school so i trusted it was real. That seems to be their tactic into making people fall for it.

I fell victim to several bitcoin scams, the most recent was with an investment scheme that promised me a 200% return in 30 days which I saw as a great opportunity to make money due loss of job during covid, the profit never came in and they did not respond any longer to my messages when I demanded for my capital investment. I found out and later had to report to private investigators who helped in tracking the Bitcoin I sent into their wallet address which was successfully recovered from their wallet.

Bitcoin fraud victims should report on this website below with evidences of transaction, if they still have them.

These individuals continuously ask for money by promising a specific amount of money in return. As a profit , but these people didn't really provide any returns/refunds for the amount that they have taken.

I was contacted on Friday. He said his company needed to give out a certain amount of tax write off. If I put out a certain amount of money the amount of money i would keep would be a significant amount more ex; $100=1200, $200=4800 and so on. I sent the $$ and then he said their wasn't sufficient amounts left for that 200 bracket so to send more. I didn't. They showed videos of people saying thankyou and showing their cash app amounts after sending the money. Even sent the person holding their drivers license poc to validate it was them. I was very upset and deleted the messages after getting scammed. They blocked me on fb afterwards. I asked for a refund on cash app from them and it was denied.

The scammers were wanting money. If they didn't get their money, they were threatening to release information about me and my family that does not exist.
