Description

Person at Braxons Group offered investment in Crypto Etherium. He allegedly made good profit but kept pushing me to invest more money. I had come to the end of my savings and said I’d like to close the account. He said that was no problem and sent the Etherium to Wallet.Trustedwallet.io . I tried to send the asset to an exchange wallet so I could sell it for cash. This wallet said that because the funds going to the trading company had not come through this wallet I had to go through Anti Money Laundering Authority investigation. They said that would take years to complete OR I could send them 45% of the value of the asset as a verification that the Etherium was actually mine. I didn’t have that amount so I told them to send it to AMLA. After about a month they contacted me again. Chris (apparently in the UK) and Daniel (maybe in Switzerland) said they had come up with a less expensive plan to access my Cryptos. I was to send $6000. for something call “know your customer” for some kind of verification. Then when I tried to send the Etherium to my exchange wallet again, it was blocked again because I had to pay capital gains tax. I asked what country this tax was for and was told Switzerland. They said the profit was made there so that’s who got the tax. Daniel is the contact at Trusted wallet.io. 647 660-8849. I am not sending any more money. Clearly the Cryptos were non existent right from Braxons Group on.
