Description

I was approached on facebook through a ad I responded to about investing in stocks. I was contacted by Anne Miller which is most likely a fake name. I was invited to Whatsapp group called LST Alliance. The group consist of 2 professors Charles Bennett and Kevin who appear to be very knowledgeable about stocks and crypto. I was introduced to traditional stock trading through recommendations. Then the group switched to crypto and advised it's members to visit a fake crypto exchange called IPXCOIN.XPZ. WE were giving 600 dollars in trading funds and was told to await crypto signals. We would get a text via what's app and trade on the fake exchange IPXCOIN. We were told that anything we make after the initial 600 they giving us we can keep after we returned the principal of 600. The signals and the crypto were manipulated because the profits were just to good to be true. After the initial faze of 600 we began to get sinal more frequently and was told to add more funds for better profits after adding money and trading with them for awhile I managed to get to 9k plus. I remember logging on to the Exchange one day and it was like the website never existed. Then I ask Anne Miller was the site down and she gave a link to the exchange but the last letters were different. At this point I felt a weird feeling and decided to withdraw all I've accumulated only to find out that the funds weren't accessible at all as if it wasn't real money or crypto. I didn't have the option to withdraw anything. This group has many members but 98% of the people talking are in on the scam posting back withdrawals and fake statements to entice you to add more money. I was kicked from the group and blocked by Anne Miller afterwards. Mm
