Description
Investments in cryptocurrency in a company called Bitvavo, which has my money frozen and will not release it unless I pay them $66,000 in fees. After countless attempts, they froze my account. My investment manager, Bell Lin, who works at IDG capital in Boston, Mass., is the lead who made all transactions and set ups in this account. I attempted to contact her after I was told my account is frozen. I have contacted the customer service and they insisted I pay the deposit to release my funds. The amount total is $508,000.
