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. I have all the screen shots for website, people who interacted, trading flat form, and money traded in the new coin. All details are captured in the form of screen shots.

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.

I got an email from someone posing as PayPal regarding a bitcoin/Cryptocurrency transaction. They gave me a number to call about the transaction and I talked with **** ****** from 1-870-345-4916. He had a foreign accent. I gave him my social security number. They were saying it was my local credit union. The credit union told me to call the Better Business Bureau.

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 am reaching out to inform the BBB, specifically the BBB.com in St. Louis where I currently reside, about a mass cryptocurrency scam that has left my boyfriend with a loss of $450,000 in a matter of seconds. Upon further research and investigation, it appears there are THOUSANDS if not MORE crypto users, specifically using the platform Raydium, being affected by what I believe can be categorized as a phishing scam. It appears Raydium may be involved in this scheme, where when their platform fails to conduct a "swap" a "failed transaction" error appears leading the user to believe the trade did not go through, and allows the user to resubmit the transaction, however, the original transaction DID go through and the user is doubled charged, (and raydium collects double the fees users are required to pay each transaction).

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.

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.
