Description
I was contacted via TikTok to move my cryptocurrency assents into an account on Web 3 (or so I thought). They then contacted me on Telegram. I was referred to this website which looked legitimate: https://web3official.net/. Unfortunately, as part of setting up the account, I had to give them my 24 words passcode that protects my crypto in my Ledger Nano X. They kept asking me to send them different screen shots (probably so they knew what my assets were). I set up the account and then had second thoughts and when I tried to transfer it back - it disappeared. I'm now looking at this website - which is still up and if you clink on anything it goes nowhere (to the top of the page). The support email is no longer working. You never know who you are talking to on the web and when they contacted my they had bogus information that was very similar to a crypto content creator I follow. My friend said they were set up as a business and were listed by the BBB. I did not have a phone number for them and couldn't find any phone numbers on their website, so I used my phone number.
