Fake Returns Scam

1

We are being consulted by Mrs. Gabriëlle concerning a significant amount of BTC that she lost due to a scam by the platform UpTradeMarket. From the end of July 2021 until the end of October 2021, following a false advertisement on Facebook, Mrs. Gabriëlle got in contact with an account manager from UpTradeMarket (all e-mail traffic enclosed). This account manager convinced Mrs. Gabriëlle to create a wallet (without access to the private key) and to send enormous amounts of euros to Coinbase. In total, around 800.000 euro was sent to Coinbase by Mrs. Gabriëlle via Deutsche Bank, ING Bank and KBC Bank. When Mrs. Gabriëlle asked the account manager from UpTradeMarket for a withdrawal of her profits, because she herself had no access to her wallet to do transactions or whatsoever, the tone of the messages and e-mails suddenly changed. UpTradeMarket led Mrs. Gabriëlle to believe that her wallet was 'under investigation' by the government. In the mean time, they kept asking Mrs. Gabriëlle to transfer more funds to Coinbase. After Mrs. Gabriëlle came to us for help, we ordered a KYA-report and afterwards a more in-depth Investigation Report from Scorechain. A total of 19,393 BTC was sent to the same BTC-adress: 12pPFSepbNo1YjAC9x561YsT7vGny4baGx. From this BTC-adress, a total of 18,05 BTC was sent to a bc1-adress. From this point a direct mixer service was used (Wasabi Wallet: Coinjoin), meaning UpTradeMarket deliberately made sure all the transactions were as untraceable as possible.  The more in-depth report of Scorechain shows that it is highly likely that parts of the funds were sent to these exchanges: Coinbase, Huobi, Okex, Kraken and Gemini.  To do as much damage control as possible, we ask you to take notice of this serious situation and freeze the possible amount of BTC (or other coins) that was transferred to Coinbase from the abovementioned adress via the mixer service.  We are currently also drafting a criminal complaint and we are in contact with the other abovementioned exchanges and FinCen as well.  We hope to hear from you very soon.  Kind regards,  Levi
