I was approached by Mr Roberts about a crypto investment with his platform called Newlineinvestments, and I had to invest between $500-$1,000 to start, but he continue adding “FEES” and never sent me any profits or anything from this investment, after about 4 months and $3,000 in “fees” I told him that I couldn’t afford anything else, so he became disrespectful and demanded another fee be paid before profits could be sent.

I invested in a crypto mining project through CryptoFxmTrade. Shortly after making an investment, the company executed a bait and switch scam to try to require me to sent additional money to be part of an upgraded program. Then, they attempted to charge me $500 to verify my identify. At this point, I refused to send the company any more monet. This company is a ponzi scheme

I meant this individual through the social media app tick tock. His handle name is West Coast wizard AKA Alex Vasa. He was warning people of getting their cryptocurrency off of coinbase and Trust wallet and to put it onto this broker site to secure crypto funds on the qfs system. After transferring my funds to The qfsxLedger.com I was unable to interact with my crypto or move it. As of June 14th 2024 the website is no longer available and I have no idea how to recover my crypto. Please send any information about this website to my email address on how I might be able to recover my crypto . [email protected]

I am writing to inform you that I believe I have been a victim of a scam
involving my trading investment broker. All the purchases in Bitcoin
and Ethereum made between July 14, 2023, and October 11, 2023,
through legaltrustinv platform are fraudulent. My broker/trader () has
been confirmed as a fraud and scammer, and the platform she used is
fake and fraudulent." I have trust wallet and she has access to it as
she is a professional trader and was doing my trading. Was supposed
to get my $1.3 million dollars but each time Bryan from legal trust
says there is a late fee or escrow fees. All the time some kind of fees.
I kindly request that you assist me in the process of getting these
fraudulent purchases charged back to my Wells Fargo bank account. I
also had to wire on August 31, 2023 $60,000 to the brokers friend in
California so she could buy bitcoin and pay the tax and also I had to
wire on October 11, 2023 $ 9,000.00 to the same individual to pay
escrow fee. All other transactions were done on trust wallet and
Mercuyo.
I have evidence of the fraudulent transactions and are willing to
provide any necessary documentation.
Please provide me with next steps on how to handle this situation and
get my money back.
Sincerely
****** *****

My mother is being scammed by a person using the identity of Axel Vasa aka the West Coast Wizard who claims to be in the bloodline of Jesus and is JKF Jr’s secret twin brother. He has gained her trust and has convinced her that the banks are closing and if she doesn’t move all of her funds into a QFS (Quantum Financial System) Ledger account then she will lose all of her money once the banks go down. After depleting her entire savings (at least $20,000) to ‘invest’ her money into QFS she then took out a HELOC ($50,000) on her home and transferred all of that money over a 14-day period by withdrawing it from the bank and depositing it into bitcoin machines where Axel Vasa is then able to retrieve the funds. ‘They’ have created a fake account where my mom is able to view all the money she had invested so far, but (of course) she does not have access to the funds. I believe Axel originally reached out to mom on Facebook then took their conversations to places such as WhatsApp, TikTok, X, Truth Social and so on. Mom has given him access and permission to use her social media accounts because ‘he keeps getting kicked off of them because he is trying to save the world and tell the truth’ (in other words just trying to scam other people). He has since taken over all of her social media accounts and switched them all over to ‘Axel Vasa’ accounts. So mom, no longer has her social media accounts. He has also convinced her that they are in a relationship and in love and convinced her to put her house up for sale to go to California to be with him… of course with the hopes that he would obtain the house money. This is a very long story and it’s been a battle. I have so much more information I could share… it just goes on and on. We (all 5 of her children) essentially had to take mom to court to obtain guardianship of her estate, which we won! The judge agreed that mom was in a scam. It’s only been a few weeks since we obtained the order. Mom still wants to sell the house and we put up for sale just this week. She still believes that she is going to go to California to be with Axel, but we know this not to be the case… my sister will take her in and has a room ready for her. Clearly, as you can tell, mom might have some cognitive health issues going on, but I also believe she has been brainwashed by ‘Axel’. I do believe this is a whole production of scammers and the scammers know mom is an easy target because different ones are reaching out to her all the time trying different tactics. We will be changing her phone out here shortly and getting her a new phone number. 2 other scammers names that have also reached out to mom on FaceBook go by the names of Zach Rector (a bitcoin guy) and David Miller (a widowed US Army Sergent currently base in Syria - this one asked my mom to hold 1 million dollars worth of gold for him until he returns back to the states)

Contacted via messenger on FaceBook. Scammer follows my FB page. Chatted in messenger then "scammer" disclosed they were a financial planner and knew of an investment that had a quick turnaround and was profitable. I asked what the least that could be invested, because I was sceptical and really know better. They said $300 was the least amount. After thinking about it for about 24 hrs I decided to do it, if it was a scam so be it. As soon as I deposited the $300 in their website, I got a message through messenger that said I needed to deposit another $300, "it happens like that sometime." I refuse to deposit more and then a message was sent to me saying their manager has corrected the error. I ignored over 100 calls through messenger from this individual. Finally, they say the market will close and I need to withdrawal my win fall of $7500 but before I can do so I must pay a withdrawal fee of between $500 and $700 and pay the individual 10% for their fee. Throughout these 4 days they have commented on every post I've made on Facebook with "why won't you text me back", "you were talking to me before, what's wrong"....

Scammer created the HRT Cryptocurrency group, and did the 3 months trading. One day he told they create new Cryptocurrency which will go 2 to 3 times after it published in the market. Based on 3 months trading, we believed and move the crypto currency into the new coin in hrtexii.com ,(Which is used for trading also). Suddently scammer told they will modifying website to accommadate the new coin and shutdown the website and asked to wait for one month to release new coin. Then after that no contact but eh person who co ordinated is still in contact but the person also says no idea. Same person co ordinated all the 3 months for trading and coaching the website how to use it. The person who started provided initially great details in crypto and started future trading , once we kept money in that new coin which is under construction , all the money gone and person also disappared.

They advertise on facebook and instagram. I knew somehow that r scammers, didnt invest much but for the sake of others who invest alot, do smth and block the site and stop this ppl . No one will get their money back. It is same system like known from pig butchering, where they ask for money and at the end again for money in order they give the money free, but they never do, they block ones account at the end and dissappear. Check James Wilson on facebook and as trademefx_ on instagram. He keeps saying he is italian but as he said his real name is Pereira, which is a portuguese name, he mixes all up in the hope to find enough ppl who can cheat. The site is simply built, you can see is not professional and also there is no way to withdraw the money at anytime as promised. There are tones of this kind of persons on facebook and if you contact them, they have all the same script, if you do this you will find out other websites which r already blacklisted. If you go on bybit official site, you will find by any pic some comments from ppl suggesting this persons as helping crypto professionals. If needed, I can give you one of their crypto wallet address, but they work with several accounts, so is hard to find out but at least if you go after the ppl behind this accounts and block this sites, you may help alot of ppl from losing their money.

They are very friendly all the way and try to get any amount of money from the people until they quit. I work myself for police for over 25 years and for me was only a check, but they should be stopped internationally, I already reported them on other anti-scam sites. I know you cant help many getting their money back but at least prevent new ones becoming victims of this ppl.

workbench112.com is a scam company setting up people to deposit money into crypto account and then transfer the money to them claiming you will make money doing a set of review tasks that require you to make extra deposits to cover the negative account. the negative keeps coming back until you fall behind by thousands of dollar and you cant deposit any more money. Eventually you cant complete the task so that means you can't [removed by editor] any of the deposits that you made to complete the set of 30 tasks. The money is gone for sure whether you stop before making extra deposits or if you make the required deposits. at the end your money will evaporate. This company is less a month old and is using temu name to scam victims. Please be aware of this scam and stay away for doing business with them

I was contacted by a wrong number, which when responded to struct up a conversation and asked to be friends and remain in contact. "She" claimed her name was Lousie Smith and that she lived in New York, owned a fashion and tile company, and that her tiktok was @louise7745. After which, "she" brought up cryptocurrency and offered to teach me. She encouraged me to deposit my life savings into the site, okolx.com. The site asked for my state ID number to "verify" my account to use the service. With the money I deposited, I earned an abnormally high amount of money and was told I had to pay an $8,000 "tax fee" to withdraw my earnings. When I confronted her and the platform's customer service, I got no further responses.

I met a girl on Hinge. She goes by Layla Adora. We talked for a while then moved to WhatsApp to continue texting. She says she is from Sweden but lives in NYC. She convinced me to get into CryptoCurrency trading. I did some test trades with her on the website Moveworks-pro.com. The trades were successful and I was able to withdraw the money. She convinced me to deposit more money. I took out a loan from my 401k of $30k in order to do so. I had to send the crypto to a new website because the old URL was not working. The new website URL is chyeolophus.com. I traded the crypto and made more profit. However, I went to withdraw the money and now the website is telling me I have to pay them more money ($1,783.36) in order for my funds to be released. They will not cancel the withdrawal so that I could use the funds I traded to pay, nor will they release the funds until that amount it paid. This information is not posted anywhere on their website and they would not tell me why my funds were not being released for nearly 24 hours.

I told this to Layla and she said it is not a lot of money and I should just pay it. Since I deposited the $30k she has seldom responded to me and no longer carries on a conversation.

This website also draws a red flag warning from Coinbase when I attempt to use it, stating it is likely unsafe. The website has no phone number to call nor a physical address.
