In April 2024, I thought I was investing in cryptocurrency. A woman by the name of Cary Lorie, offered to invest for me. She seemed to have a long track record of doing this for others. All communication was via Facebook Messenger only. Initially, I invested $2000. I had to buy Bitcoin from crypto.com and then transfer to a wallet, where it was then invested. This turned into $15k. If I added another 4k, it would grow further she said. So, I did. It grew to $538000.00. However, in order to retrieve the money, I had to pay taxes she said. Everytime I gave her more money to make the withdrawal, the price of the "taxes" went up. At 20k, I told her I was calling the police. I already reported it to the FBI
