Description
I am friends with Joanne Kaplan Lane on facebook. I thought this was the same person i worked with previously. Her fb page was hacked. I saw that her fb page talked about cryptocurrency and she had a cryptocurrency diploma displayed. I was interested and started asking questions. I decided to start. I was buying bitcoin from cashapp and transferring the money or wire transfers to a bank that i received info from. This started in march 2024 to july 2025. I found out it was a scam.
