Description

Charles Valentine hit me up on Instagram and started a romantic interest and then hit me up to receive funds from various people through venmo, Paypal and cash app to buy into Bitcoin and then send the funds back to a specific account for work his boss, to pay for rent and food. When I would put up resistance he then would get upset with me especially when my banking institution stepped in. I have the address the Bitcoin that the funds would be sent to. He proved he was a human by videos and Pictures. But now I'm getting suspicious and want nothing to do with him.
