Description

about an online trading scam that I have been a victim of, involving a platform called Linus Blockchain and a person named Carl Robert. Below, I provide the details of the scam and the events that transpired: Details of the Scam: Initial Contact: I was invited via Facebook to join a WhatsApp group promoting the Linus Blockchain platform. The invitation came from a person named Carl Robert. Promises Made: The group promised massive profits from coin trading on the Linus platform. They assured us that these profits would help us regain our stock losses. Investment Encouragement: I was encouraged to fund my account repeatedly to increase potential profits. Despite my skepticism, I transferred funds to my account based on their promises and reassurances. Suspicious Activities: I noticed inconsistencies within the group, such as different persons showing the same trade and profit amounts. This raised my suspicions, but I continued to participate due to the consistent pressure and promises of high returns. Scheduled Trading Event: On the scheduled trading date, we were instructed to trade a coin called ZXA. We were given specific instructions and timing to buy and raise the coin's price. Loss of Funds: During the trading session, my account was suddenly wiped out. Meanwhile, other group members were claiming significant profits from the same session. Explanation and Support: When I questioned Carl Robert and the support person in the group, I was told that my funds were liquidated because I did not insert the exact amount requested for the trade by the instructor. This explanation was not convincing, as there were instances where the instructor seemed to have real-time visibility of my trades, raising further suspicions of manipulation.
