Description

I am reporting a cryptocurrency investment fraud where I was defrauded of $2,708 cad . The perpetrators operated an investment scheme that initially honored small withdrawal requests to establish trust and credibility. Once my investment amount became substantial, they blocked my account access, falsely claiming my cryptocurrency account was under investigation for suspicious activity related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) violations.
