Description

Facebook Ad for ‘AI’ crypto trading. Initially invested $360 CDN ($250 USD) to get started. They sent back $50 to ‘prove that funds flowed both ways’. Over several weeks and phone meetings, about $3300.00 CDN of mine was added to the account. Using their trade window, I was able to grow the account to $25k within a few months - then ‘Alex the acct mgr’ starting hanging large, losing trades on my account. When I complained, ‘Alex’ was replaced with ‘Daniel’ who suggested that I ADD FUNDS to allow him to correct the (their) mistake. My suspicions were that this was a scam so I closed the trade at a huge loss ($19k USD) and requested my account to be closed. “Daniel” gave me the standard lie…they needed a few days to ‘prepare the transfer’. Ghosted for many weeks since, despite numerous attempts to contact. SCAM.
