I found a crypto trading group on facebook that was proving great results. You just have to open an apexnumber account, deposit $100k, upgrade to VIP account, and earn a ton of money, and only pay 5% commission to the copy trader, whose name is Brian Harold as per his facebook profile. In about 1 month, my account was already at $1M. I was ready to pull out some money for the first time! I went to do so, and they tricked me with hidden fees says that I have to pay additional 10% of my account total (which comes around $107k) as tax fee and I won't be able to withdraw any money without paying this upfront 10% fee from out of my pocket. After a bit of research, it appears this is about the time they stop responding, and I don't expect to see my $100k deposit back. I pulled my apex wallet number that I deposited my money from blockchain.com, to find there is only $1300 (not $1M like my apexnumber account says). Needless to say, I feel like a total idiot I fell for this. I felt like I did enough due diligence, but was blinded by all the success I was seeing from fake profiles. All the red flags are so obvious now. Amount lost 100000.00 USD

I come to seek for help from your office because I was defrauded of $43,247 CAD about. Indeed, on February 17, 2024, a woman named Alice (I forgot the name) whose number follows: 1 312 221 9819 working for the VICTORIOUS structure https://www.victorious-works.com/login based in California contacted me on my number and introduced me to cryptocurrency by offering to work from home buying shares on Amazon, Ebay, Temu, Shein…and others. After doing my research on the internet, I saw that they have a branch in San Francisco and this dispelled my doubts regarding the veracity of their proposals. After training on the optimization of stock purchase and sale tasks, I carried out a series of 3 product optimization tasks by investing $383.60, I had a gain of $1788.32 USD . Unfortunately, this was all just a scam and phishing scam. I must have lost more than $32206 USD . Through the site https://crypto.com/ca, which is known to be reliable in terms of bitcoin transactions, I had to make deposits and withdrawals involving the sum of $32206 USD as initially stated. On the fake bitcoin account, my balance is: 21,215.32 USD. After trying to make withdrawals several times, I saw my transactions get rejected. I have kept the list of transactions carried out from February 17, 2024 to April 5, 2024, as well as screenshots of all of our discussions with the person with whom i use toengaged the conversation I made Screenshots (copies) of all operations (even PJ). I also filed a complaint with the Canadian Anti-Fraud Center with reference 2024-36625.

The telegram channel name changed to '----' with a scam emoji after the dashes. In the group he/she proposed that the EGL coin is up for grab on pre-sale and then he /she posted steps to add contract on Uniswap v3 with contract number-0x16d97EC1c7637978ffBbCc71Bd76864cfAEf3334. Then he /she proceed to pump the token, with fake news about partnering with different projects , getting listed on different exchanges and wait for 4 days for a profit of 10x-30x, as the sale will be live after specified time. On the specified listing day he/she posted fake news about EGL getting hacked and stealing coins, due to which the protocol suffered heavy damage so the coins cant be swapped. After some time the scammer posts in group that individuals have to deposit minimum of 0.3 ETH for the chain to realize one to be the validator and can continue to swap the token.

I found a crypto trading group that was proving great results. Too good to be true of course. You just have to open an apexnumber account, deposit $100k, upgrade to VIP account, and earn a ton of money, and only pay 5% commission to the copy trader. In about 1 month, my account was already at $1M. Then quickly $2.25. I was ready to pull out some money for the first time! I went to do so, and they tricked me with hidden fees and a "bonus". The bonus of $250k was immediately deposited into your apexnumber account, and now it is frozen until I can pay back the $250k bonus back to apexnumber, outside of apexnumber app. (So I have to come up with $250k to pay apex, so I can have access back to my account. I cannot use any of the $2.5M in my account.) I started a 2nd account to hopefully get around this. Stupid me. Just wanted to earn a quick $250k, so I could pay that, and get access to my $2.5M sitting there. Come to find out from another member in the group, there is a 10% fee you have to pay once your account reaches $1M, to access your funds. (apex or my trader did not tell me this, just another member I connected with). So on top of the $250k bonus I need to repay, once I do that, they will require another $250k for 10% fee that they claim is for taxes? (yeah right). After a bit of research, it appears this is about the time they stop responding, and I don't expect to see my $200k back. I pulled my wallet number from blockchain.com, to find there is only $1300 in both my accounts. (not $2.5M and $100k like my apexnumber account says). Needless to say, I feel like a total idiot I fell for this. I felt like I did enough due diligence, but was blinded by all the success I was seeing from fake profiles. All the red flags are so obvious now. $200k later.

The person is asking for investments to multiply earnings but they keep asking for fee charges to release the money.

In early Sep 2023 a mainland Chinese man namely Kevin Cheung through WhatsApp introduced to me MetaMask wallet and a mining pool DEXCOIN.World and taught me how to open an account etc. He pushed me to deposit funds into the mining pool from time to time. During Sep 2023 and Mar 2024 through MetaMask I had participated in DEX mining programme and deposited accumulatively about USD200,000 into the account. The amount of income earned was about USDT300,000. Recently they asked me to pay out of my pocket for CGT / tax on income. The amount of tax they requested is 15% of the total account balances the time of full payment. They did not allow me to withdraw the money from the account until I pay the tax to them by 31 Mar 2024. Also, they threatened me that they will take legal actions if I fail to do what they instructed. I then consulted a few of tax professionals and they all said I’m a non-US resident without coming to or visiting in the U.S. for over 20 years and should not be subject to CGT. For tax payable on dividends (income earned) they said the vendor should withhold 30% of my earned dividend/income from the account and file the tax, but not asking me to pay it out of my pocket. On 17 Apr 2024, I paid the tax to their requested blockchain address but they still did not allow me to withdraw any funds. I checked with MetaMask through email and they said the website and the involved smart contract are completely scam. I had locked up and checked the domain of the suspicious website and found that the owner of the domain is Goldman Sachs New York and the registration address of the website is in Singapore. I’m sure if all these information is correct or not. According to their claim, millions of investors have been participating in their mining pool. I urgently need help to get back my money and protect myself for personal safety as they knew I’m filing complaints against them.
