Description

He contacts people on social network (with fake profile pic) introducing himself as account manager with many years of experience and talk to about investments, financial freedom, and tell you that you can do a little investment to see how his the platform works. After he will help you patiently for creating an account on his scammer platform and also on Coinbase or some platform of crypto currency exchange to buy and transfer the bitcoin you have bought to his own wallet. By making you believe that's yours. He ask you if you want to accept it on Whatsapp and will talk to you every day, sending you fake email showing you how your investment grows. After a while he ask you if you don't want invest more for more leverage and will persecute you with that until you make bigger and bigger investments. But here's the truth, if you want to do a withdrawal after a few weeks, he starts to speak Chinese to you and ask you to add a bigger amount before doing the withdrawal. At this moment i've acknoledged that was a scam.
