Description

I went to Josh Investments from Facebook. I told him what I was looking for For and all at once he started in with me investing in crypto. So he started with $1000 and that was to get me started then all of a sudden he needed $3000 to do something else and then it was $8000 to buy” signal.” And then it was another $6000 to finish up and get paid. All sounded good to me. I was about to get paid and things were looking good. I made some money according to him. Then I find out I need another $6000 to buy bitcoin and do something else with the trading I didn’t quite catch on, but I was getting pretty suspicious. But I went for anyway and I took a loan for $6000. Now everything gets nearly completed. All things are traded in bitcoins there I see that I’m gonna get paid $68,000. I have to repay him because of the money he said he put in which was around $4000 ,supposedly, and then it comes time to collect the cash and he hits me up hits me up with a fee that he didn’t say anything about earlier for $6720. And until then I can’t get my money until I pay it the $6720. what I need to know now is this company legitimate or a fraud?
