I am reporting a scam involving the website "ValueCaps.com" and a Facebook group called "Retire Wise (FIRE)", which is allegedly managed by someone named Kathleen O’Brien (I believe this name is fake). The "Retire Wise (FIRE)" Facebook group appears to have over 8,000 members. Afterwards, based on my research, these accounts are fake and generated by AI. The group is filled with posts from supposed users sharing fake stories of investment profits and successful trades. These posts are designed to lure victims into trusting the group and its associated website. I was encouraged by group members to open a Crypto.com account and transfer cryptocurrency to ValueCaps.com. The scammers then requested that I send them screenshots of my crypto transactions, including the Transaction ID/hash. I made two transactions: $5,000 on August 26, 2025 $8,000 on September 15, 2025 After I sent the transaction details, my funds became inaccessible, and I realized I had been scammed. The scammers also requested sensitive personal information, including my driver’s license, which puts me at risk of identity theft. This operation is entirely fraudulent, using AI-generated content and fake accounts to create the illusion of legitimacy. Their only goal is to steal money and personal information from victims. Please investigate "ValueCaps.com" and the "Retire Wise (FIRE)" Facebook group. I am willing to provide any further information or evidence needed.
