Description

I was approached by a friend online who suggested using this website for crypto trading. The website name is Annimex.com. I had been talking to my friend for about an month now. I was learning how to invest my bitcoin in this trading platform. Everything seemed legitimate and even had security verified process. I have been investing for over a month making profits. I started with $500.00. And over the last month I have invested $11,000.00 dollars in bitcoins. I thought I was making a profit up $28,589.71. So my account reflects. But yesterday I went to withdraw a small amount of funds from this platform. Immediately my account was locked. So, I contacted the support team and first they said I violated their policy by trying to withdraw funds during liquidation process. Then I messaged them back and told them that I hadn’t traded at all for a day or so. That all I did was try to withdraw funds. Then they told me that they needed to verify my account by me sending another $1800.00. To some random bitcoin wallet address. I told them that I was not sure who that belongs to. I am not sending any more money to lose. Now I can’t even get support to respond to me again. Nor can I withdraw my funds. It’s still locked.
