Scam information

This content is based on victim and potential victim accounts. Government agencies and legitimate business names and phone numbers are often used by scam artists to take advantage of people.

Description

The company contact you via Facebook and act as an investment group in a WhatsApp group chat. They direct you to invest in certain crypto trading according to their AI system. They tell you when to open and close in order to make a profit. They convience you to send money via other crypto platforms like crypto.com and Kraken. They even assist you to do it if you don't know how to. The guy name is Mitchell Ashcroft. Once you deposit enough funds, they restrict your account saying there is a policy that if you withdraw your money to another platform even the ones they suggest you use to transfer money over, the system will automatically put a restriction on your account so you can't take your money out or any money that you have supposedly earned. This happened to me. They will tell you that it may take up to 2 months before you can access your money. In the meantime you can still add money into Bitmacoin and do trades. Note that They never allow you to add money straight into the Bitmacoin account, it has to be transferred from another crypto account. They also have fake accounts in the WhatsApp chat group showing fake earnings to other people which of course encourages you to invest more money. However it is all lies. I was doing as instructed and all of sudden, my money started shrinking quickly and it never did that before with any trade they instructed us to do and in minutes, all my money was gone. When I questioned the so called assistant Evelyn about it, she encouraged me to add more money which I did not. I had supposedly earned an extra 16,000 from the trades but I would never see any of it. I have since seen other comments on social media about people experiencing the exact same thing with these people.
