I was initially contacted by Millie, an Instagram account I had followed for some time, to chat. We talked for a while before she began telling me about an investment group she was part of. She referred to the group as Morgan (and frequently said or implied it was associated to JP Morgan). This group did short term crypto trading on a daily basis. She then invited me to a Telegram group so that I could help her, as she was going to be at a dinner during the daily trading time and wanted me to call her when a trade came through. She eventually convinced me to make an investment and start trading, which I did with $1,000, the minimum to join the beginner group. I began trading and grew my account from 1K-10K very quickly, I was then told if I didn't bring my account up to 25K, I would not be able to remain in the group.
I brought my account to 25K, through some additional funds transfers and trading but then was told the beginner group was being dissolved and I could join the advanced group if I brought my account to 50K. I didn't add any money but did up to 20 trades per day of my own to build up my account value. Just before I got to 50K, they informed me that the advanced group would be getting dissolved but I could join the VIP group for 200K of new investment, no profits could be used to satisfy the 200K.
During this time, I was assigned a mentor (Nikolaos) and a teacher (Jack Normand). Between these two and Millie, I was getting almost daily pushes to add more money, asking for my balance, and when my money was coming. I told them I was getting a big bonus at the end of the month and would make the 200K deposit but instead began making small withdrawals. Through this approach, I was able to recover my entire principal investment, plus about 3K in profits, before they stopped honoring withdrawal requests and the remaining ~25K profits in my account disappeared.
All communication was done through WhatsApp and Telegram. Telegram was used by the "trading groups" however I believe that most of the participants were fake to give me the perception of a group making money. They claimed to be associated to JP Morgan, even sending me a form on JP Morgan letterhead to sign up for their VIP service, however I called JP Morgan and was told there was no affiliation. Their trading platform was called UFJPRO, and showed up in the Playstore as developed by Sangeev
Following my exit from the UFJPRO platform and communications, I was suddenly contacted by dozens of random names and profiles wanting me to join their investment groups.

I don’t know why this person keeps calling me from Buffalo NY when I live in Texas. I have never been to NY in my life. This lady claims there is a “case”against me and I or my lawyer do not call her back she will be forced to give a “final review” on my pending “case”. She has called multiple times in the last few months.
