Zara Malik contacted me from Facebook. Her Facebook profile is https://www.facebook.com/flore.rodriguez.737. Then she claimed to me that she does Crypto Trading on coinmite.com, she taught me to do trading on Coinmite.com, she did some fake trades and showed me that I made some profit. Next she told me put more money, I was hesitant, so to get my interest, she said, you are my friend, I can put $5000 on the coinmite.com site. I think she scams people and in reality she is working or she is managing that coinmite.com site. Then I put $5000 on coinmite.com, she was forcing me to put $5000 more on coinmite.com. I got suspicious. So I was trying to withdraw $10000 from the site, the transaction didn't go through. I started chatting with support on the site, they said, you need to deposit $2500 more so that they will release the funds. Now I got the doubt about Zara Malik. I chatter with her on FB/WhatsApp by using 645-955-7212. I told her, that she is scamming people including me. Now she came up with another scheme, she was saying, you need to put at least $1250 and she will put $1250 so that the money can be released from coinmite.com. I think she is scamming people by creating a fake profile on Facebook and by posting beautiful pictures. She is luring unknown men on Facebook and attracting their attention and telling them to put money in coinmite.com and scamming people. Her profile, I have blocked it from my end. But her profile and the site both should be deleted from Facebook and internet. So that they shouldn't scam anyone. I have lost roughly $5000. I have filed your complain on the us govt site and scammer groups on Facebook.

Hello, Good Afternoon I sold a game account of a game name Summoners War by 4300$ thought this website. The buyer released the funds and I transfer him the game login and password. I read all the conditions of the website before accepting the deal so I was aware of the nature of the trading portal. I read fees and conditions to be met in order to withdraw the money. At the moment of withdraw they asked me to verify my authenticity by sending an amount to check that I was a real person. Then after it was completed, they told me In order to withdraw the money I needed to buy an insurance to avoid the bitcoin to be lost in blockchain. I refused since they explained they were going to mix the coins in order to avoid to be lost and that is not true. I told them to release the lock, and after that I tested by sending 0.006 btc to a wallet in coinbase. After 30 minutes I did not receive it, and contacted back for a hash or transaction ID to track it online thought the blockchain. Then they stopped answering. After an hour I needed a explanation of where is the money and what is going on. So they send me a message that my account was blocked due suspect of money laundry. That they will hold my account funds. The sent transaction never arrived and I did not receive a transaction ID. It seems like a scam from them. Even thought the remaining amount is still listed in their website and is good since it received a part that I sent to check if it was really a bitcoin address. I checked while I was doing this claim and they closed the message center messages. Im still unable to withdraw since it is not safe. I do not want to remove more btc from them since it looks shady no transaction ID no refund from initial payment.

I introduced to the site via a friend from facebook.The company is called Cash loading Program through Cash App in hopes of getting some extra cash.So i put in for 10,000 dollars in hopes i would get the cash..The only catch was i had to pay 3% to the person providing the money...The problem is i kept paying the fees via bitcoin but the more money i was putting in i didnt get the result i was hoping for.Instead i was told to pay more fees via bitcoin to complete the payment so i can receive the 10,000..The problem is i never received the money and thats when i realized something was not right about this program and this is what leading me to believe i was being scammed the whole time and this is why im reporting this company.

The broker took money ($1350) and invested it in cryptocurrency on my behalf, which grew to a little over $67,000. Then I was told I had to pay an "upgrade" fee in order to withdraw any of it. This fee was not disclosed until I wanted to withdraw my money. I received an email stating that I can withdraw without a fee so I attempted to withdraw the money with another broker and she said I had to deposit an additional $1500 into my account before the withdrawal, and she needed my log in info. I refused to put any more money into my account and I told her I did not feel comfortable giving out my log in info. She told me that is the only way and now my account is at $0.

the scammer did a commercial on IG to join their group of trading. the trading system was coingobl.com . I signed up for the app it seemed legit. until they claimed that they was from the fidelity management group. they had the names and the ID just like them. they even told the group to look them up which I did and it seemed legit. we was trading for 3 months everything was ok until I joined the falcon project you have to put in a certain amount of money, so you needed 200 thousand to trade. so the people who didnt join the Falcon project got blocked. it seems like its a couple of people working with them. just the language that they were using seemed strange. susan is the lady name that would ask you to get more money so your profits will be higher she would hound you to get it. it was a lot of people on their platform. please help me

Back around April 10th, 2023, I used a dating website on my phone called "vietdating.us" and

matched with a man named Duc Hoang Tran. We started talking for a while and he asked me

about going to Vietnam to meet him, while he was residing in Hong Kong. He asked me to invest

money into his cryptocurrency called Coin Pool to help get more money to go to Vietnam. I

continued to message this man on WhatsApp with his mobile number of 852 4402 8792. In the

month of May, I deposited $10,000 and put it into Coin Pool, and started investing with him. On

July 4th, he told me to withdraw the money and I wasn't able to receive the money I earned since

the customer service said I had to pay tax on it. I then wire-transferred $110,000 to pay that tax. I

waited 3 days but I didn't receive my money. I then asked customer service at Coin Pool and they

suggested that be certified. I then sent a photo of myself, and my driver's license, and I paid

another $100,000 for the Coin Pool certification. I then tried to withdraw about $867,722 USDT,

but 2 days later I did not receive my money. I asked Duc a 3rd time about this situation, he told

me again to contact customer service. Coin Pools customer service told me to send another

$50,000 to verify that I had real money. I then stopped because I did not have enough money. I

then asked Duc one final time how to get my money back, but he said to put more money into it

which I cannot do.

I have printed receipts of all of my wire transfers between my ******* Financial Credit Union

bank and also my ***** Bank accounts that I used for the Coin Pool app. My Coin Pool name is

******* and my ID is *****. Duc Hoang Tran's Coin Pool name is DmuaGF and his ID is 16074.

I have already talked to Detective ***** ****** of the ***** ***** Police Department on

Monday, September 18th 2023. His phone number is ************ and his email address is

****************. My incident number is ********.

one of my friends who lost contact for such a long time but all of a sudden, she contacted me and talked for a while then she introduced me this investment cryptocurrencies. and she associated with the guy who has his own analyzing team for node trading to get maximum profit. He showed me how she got such a big profit for a short period time. so I was convinced into this investment. and i was told that if my capital reached at least 200k, I would get 15% for 3 mins. So I put all my saving and additionally, I got loan with very high interest rate to have capital 200k. He even offered me 75k to reach my capital 200k. Then in oct, I wanted to withdraw the cash from this investment account.

Based on his instruction, I wired money from my bank account to crypto.com first then from crypto.com to the fake trading platform at defi wallet which is associated with crypto.. This fake platform is associated with gate.com.

Then the rest, I used to wired fund to kraken with his instruction. Then moved fund from Kraken to gate.com fake trading platform.

In oct, I tried to withdraw the fund from this investment account but i was told that I had to pay $19 as security deposit or 20K for vip membership so I borrowed the loan to pay for this. Then still i was not able to withdraw . now I was told to pay 10% of profit tax. so I paid for this. however, then they told me that my account is frozen since they can not find the source of 75k which he moved fund to my account. so they need to have to investigate this and it might take 3 or more months to complete. The later on , they warned me that my account would be transferred to criminal department of police. That day, later, I was told that if I pay 6% of my total asset at investment account, I can withdraw all fund. So I realized that something is not right. I did not doubt since I downloaded defi wallet from google play so the trading plat form at defi wallet is safe. but I was wrong . I did not have debt or loan except mortgage for 2 condos , $110k. but now I lost all my saving and additionally, I have loan with verh high interest rate. so I do not know how to live. I asked Kraken to help and if possible they can reverse the fund from trading platform. but no... I do not want to wake up in the morning since I have fear and afraid to face the reality. I do not know how to live and pay for the loan. everyday, I am planning to commit suicide. No hope and I am in despair. Please help me out .I can provide more detail screenshot and info.

On 30 Apr 2023 Melissa Gibson contacted me on Facebook with a business opportunity  informing me that I great opportunity to make money through investing in her Cryptocurrency business called Optimuminner

However upon attempting to withdraw the profits on September 12 2023 Melissa Gibson and her CEO Michelle Patterson ( tel 385 266 8115) informed me on various dates that I had to pay upfront a plethora of financial charges prior to repatriation of profits

Todate I have paid Melisa $22,693.99 and she has not yet paid the promised profit of $115,883.

Please also note that after complaining the profit was increased to $150,000 perhaps in a devious and fraudulent scheme to keep paying fictitious charges

Two prime individuals involved Vlad Azzam and Jett Blatter, Jett Blatter appears to own/operate Sky Box Soles LLC, a New York entity, that appears to be a front for their scam. They coerced my underage son into a cryptocurrency scam taking over $10K from his bank account. Then, they hacked into his Paypal account and removed another $5700 from it which was direct debited against my personal account. All financial entities involved have been alerted and they are investigating. These people are criminal in intent and actions and I hope you do something to help stop them. It is not difficult to find information on these perpetrators on line thought Vlad Azzam never shows his face except in one picture (his profile pic on Instagram). Certainly, I have downloaded many such pics and videos of these scammers if you need them.

Also, have my bank records which clearly references these individuals.

Related parties:

Austin Fine

Amanda Blatter

Erin (South Carolina)

I have also alerted the SEC, FBI, FTC about their doings and hope that actions will be taken to prevent these people from such fraudulent actions in the future against other innocent folks.

The scammer operates a fraudulent website: https://crossnet.space. They advertise a service for bridging crypto tokens between different blockchains. However, they simply steal the assets you transfer to them and never provide the bridging service.

I connected my wallet to the website and transferred $1844.08 worth of $RVF tokens using the BNB Smart Chain. I should have received bridged tokens on Ethereum. However, the tokens were simply stolen. By following the transactions, it appears that the tokens were sold on Pancakeswap.

Please refer to the BNB smart chain transaction with the following transaction hash: ****************************************************************** It can be viewed here: ********************************************************************************...⇄

A few months ago I joined this telegram group (https://t.me/Wolf_of_tradings), they send crypto trading signals,market analysis…etc, they also advertise what they call a “HIGH YIELD TRADES” system where they supposedly take people’s money and investing it through an automated system and give you back your profits in a few days.

On October 9, 2023 I contacted the group’s admin (telegram: @WolfofTradingAdmin)

They told me to fill out this form (***********************************).

Then they told me to send the amount (in my case 500 USDT) to this address: (*****************************************************************), which I did.

They told me I will get my “profits” in 11 days.

The next day they asked me to create an account on this website:(https://www.bitconault.com/) to “monitor my trades in real time”.

After 11 days I received an email from ([email protected]) stating that “my trade is closed” and that “I need to pay 15% commission of my total profit” (in my case my profits were 3500 USDT so I had to pay 525 USDT).

I contacted the admin again and told them that I will not be able to pay the commission.

They told me that I can pay 10% (i.e 350 USDT) for now and pay the rest once I receive the profits.

On October 23, 2023 I send the 350 USDT to this address: (*****************************************************************). They told me I will receive my profits in 48 hours.

A few hours before I was supposed to receive the profits they contacted me saying that it is still processing and it will be delayed.

The next day they deleted our chat from telegram (sadly before I was able to take a screenshot) and they banned me from the channel.

Based on the time they post in the channel I deduced that they are based in southeast Asia.

I'm not a U.S citizen or resident and Unfortunately I won’t be able to report this to my local law enforcement ,as this would put me In a complex legal situation that will do more harm than good.

I understand that the ScamPulse.com may not have the interest or jurisdiction to pursue this case, but I hope you could bring it to the attention of your international partners. This is my last hope to recover my funds.

Another similar channel is this one: (*******************************)

They ask you to send funds to this address:(*****************************************************************).

Also this channel too: (******************************************).

This there address: (*****************************************************************).

I am a victim of a crypto scam introduced by a linkedin/whatsapp user. In early February this individual/scammer invited me to connect via Linkedin. Then the scammer convinced me to move the conversations to whatsapp. The number the scammer used for whatsapp was 1-985-317-2300. The scammer then introduced me to a crypto trading platform called PBEX (https://pbexres.com/#/home and https://pbexep.com/#/home). Regrettably against my better judgement I agreed to the so-called "contract trading" on this fake platform. Over the 2-month period March-May 2023, under the scammer's "guidance" I invested hundreds of thousands worth of cryptocurrency on this fake platform (about half of which was borrowed money) and made $1,300,000 profit on paper. The platform initially allowed me to withdraw small sums of money (a few hundred to a couple of thousands), but when I tried to withdraw more money to pay off a loan I had taken to fund the trading, they demanded that I pay 20% of the total asset value for them to conduct a so-called audit before they could allow the withdrawal. Only then did I realize I was a victim of an organized financial scam.
