Investment - Romance - Crypto/Investment Scam
I received a text message from a girl at dating app we were getting to know each other as friends and I gilded trust with her than she introduced me to a crypto platform she started going over procedure investing start off $1,000 and follow her instructions investing in right time and amount of seconds showing if it will go down or up than I made $100 she should me how to withdraw $100 and it worked so I started to trust her and the platform than. Than she said to wire transfer to my crypto platform and send to the website called https://www.trust-ua.com/#/ Than she said to deposit $20,000 through wire transfer to my Coin base crypto platform wallet and too that website and I received it and we started doing it again than deposit $50,000 than another $50,000 another day than all of a sudden she send me money so I can invest more and make more so I have reached $600,000 than she told me to withdraw all of a sudden the funds froze they requested to submit drivers license, and I have done that. Then the crypto platform told me since I made $600,000 I would have to pay $102,000 I told her and she said she will pay the amount of $50,000 of pretax and I would have to return it too her plus the 10% of profit I made from her and she also led me $70,000 so I can make more of it. I applied for 4 loans 3 loaner said I need to submit a request and I received 1 loan. Then I ask my Dad for a loan and he ask whey and rejected offer me this loan cause it’s a scam. The platform said I have to pay by January 16th the remaining or else there will be 0.5% of fee of the profit made and send it to the eth address provided to pay tax too. I figured now it was a scam after doing research I submit the complaint to IC3 and FTC and the bank regarding this matter and will to police. All the evidence and info provided below I would not know if this evidence for the identity of the scammer is true but those are all the evidence I can provide . The phone number the address, the face, the back account, the receipt what scammer purchased has been provided but don’t know if it’s all true.
