I was contacted through facebook about getting a deposit on cash app.I was told it was free at first then ended up sending around $350 through bitcoin. for the deposit, insurance,and a certificate. I was also supposed to get help with my credit by them making payments. But the agreement was to purchase giftcards after the payments where made to gain "trust' and then they would repay.

It also is a romance scam as well. the first individual started saying he's having trouble with his wife and that he loved me. I got upset and he transferred me to the manager. At the end of it after he got my money and the last returned payment started to say he had feeling for me and wanted to be in a relationship.
