Description
A long time friend on Facebook must have been hacked. On the hacked account he was encouraging his friends to sign up for an activeassetsdex.net account as he had taken their course on crypto trading. I sent $3115 in crypto currency. The first $1600 never posted for over a week. So he told me to send another $1500 so I could open the account and then said the $1600 would be found and returned to my Coinbase account. He started asking me for more and more money to continue trading. I said no. I wanted to withdraw the $3115 I put in. He started harassing me saying I could not have the money back for a month and even then I would have to pay commission to get it back. I asked him questions about himself that only my real friend would know. He couldn't answer any! I would like my money back but more importantly this needs to stop. They are scamming people out of their money and they want a lot. Please shut them down asap. Look at ***** ******'s Facebook page. The company is called activeassetsdex.net. The phone number listed is 812-626-4027 15 West 38th St San Pedro, California 90731.
