Contact what I thought was friend on FB who had left her job and was learning about crypto trading. After hearing some stories of great profits I tried investing a small amount, but the bar kept moving so I couldn't withdraw until I ultimately invested over $21,000 then stopped as I was suspicious this was a scam. My friend's account on FB was also closed. Later communication by email from the investment company was coming through a gmail account, which was another red flag.

CRYPTO MINING BITCOIN SCAM. The same scammer has been using clone websites and sending me this scam for several months now. I hope law enforcement takes action against him. He religiously uses Cloudflare to anonymize himself, and Cloudflare is not cooperating or doing anything to stop the attacks.

Hello, my name is Michael XXXXXX. , I am eighty years old. My friend had an online girlfriend named Nicole Eisen. She a I be came friends. She got Steve and I trading crypto futures on crypto.com. I invested $68,000 made $342,000 for a total for $410,000 in my wallet over several months. This was in the summer and fall of 2023. I was new and needed her help for every move. I made the mistake of trusting her. When it came time to withdraw, a diversion started. I was getting bombarded with messages in Telegram telling me I was being scammed. I told Nicole. She used this time to send my money to a cloned crypto.com wallet. When I tried to withdraw my money, I was told I had to deposit $66,000 for capital gains tax, then $24,000 gas tax (refundable). I made the extra deposits. They kept moving the goal posts. I was told that they suspected me of money laundering and I had to deposit $201,000 as good faith money. I came up with $50,000, Nicole, her cousin and uncle loaned me $50,000 I was told. (I paid back $25,000 from a home equity loan to Nicole) I was then told I had to wait thirty days to withdraw my money. Thirty days later, I was told I had to go to a bank in Hong Cong and sign papers to get my money. I was out of money and was recovering from a stroke. I wasn't about to travel that far. They offered to go for me for an additional $30,000 plus expenses. That's when I wised up. I have reported this to the FBI, and several other USA agencies. Your help would be greatly appreciated. My retirement account is drained. I am sure that others have been victims like myself. I hope that you can apprehend this scammer. Regards, Michael

On May 10th, 2023. I tried to find a job. I checked online to see if they are available for me. The search job post on the website is www.51.ca, and then I email him . His email address is sjiu [email protected]. He responded back to me. then he called me. his phone number is 647-477-1863. His WeChat ID: TAKE-6650. He sent me some pictures and described how to make bracelets at home. Unfortunately the goods hadn't arrived yet and he told me to wait. later, he wants me to talk at WhatsApp. the phone number shows 647-477-3419. He shows his permanent residence card. His name is LiYu Lin.  His business is Luoyi Trading Co, Ltd. import and export. the phone number shows on website is 213-314-5297. On May 29th.2023, He start taught me cryptocurrency and scammed around 300,000 USDT.  On May 30, more than 7,000USDT was put into account. In the beginning, everything was normal. I was excited to see the funds in my account grow and make good profits, so I continued to deposit money several times, and my friend also transferred money several times. The funds were transferred directly to the staff of the crypto platform. However, once I withdrew my funds, various excuses were made to require me to invest more funds in order to unfreeze the funds. Ask to pay on time of risk margin 150,000USDT ,otherwise there is a penalty 20,000USDT each month. My friend paid 2 times for me on August and September together is 40,000USDT. After the payment of risk margin was made on October 2, 2023. I immediately made an appointment with the customer support . The risk margin would be temporarily deposited into the IndoEx account, and I would then initiate a withdrawal application. This amount will be paid out to the designated collection account together. Is there any limit of withdrawal? I ask customer support. The answer is no. Then, I applied to withdraw 750,000USDT. IndoEx has received my withdrawal application and will notify me after system review. The money will arrive at the designated collection account within 1-3 working days. On October 4, 2023. I asked customer support how long I would have to wait. The answer is that many relevant departments of withdrawal users need to review the withdrawal users one by one, allowing me to choose to continue waiting or open the green channel. Once the green channel is opened, there will be no need to queue. The funds and the green channel fee of 10,000USDT will be immediately paid to the designated collection account. After payment was made on October 18, 2023. The reply was that there may be a delay in cryptocurrency. Please be patient. When I asked the customer support any questions, they didn't reply .I called and couldn't get through, and the messages didn't come back. No response. I asked my friends and didn't know what was going on. I am very worried, nervous, frustrated, and scared. I think I was scam deceived. There will be problems in my future life. I called the police directly to the branch to help me investigate.

I was connected through LinkedIn in January 2023 by a Chinese lady went by Di (Peihan) Chen name. She claimed to live in Beverly Hill, CA. This person used to have a LinkedIn profile by the name of Di Chen who contacted me on WhatsApp through her first phone number 412-886-7024 in late February 2023. I was careful enough to look up her phone on 02/15/2023 to validate and it listed for the address 110 Munsey Ave, Pittsburg, PA 15227 from March 2009 which she told me where she used to live and work before moving to Beverly Hill, CA. She also provided me with 213-877-2071 and 213-877-2808 phone numbers which I found T-Mobile as the carrier as shown below. With the valid address as well as having found T-Mobile as the carrier, I did not suspect that she was part of the coinhekooll scammers network. After I lost $1,800,455.00 US to coinhekooll scammers network, I contacted: Claim Justice for tracing crypto transactions of my coinbase, crypto.com, Kraken, and coinhekooll wallet addresses.  At first, I talked to a person named Refael Mirozov through WhatsApp as shown below.  From Refael Mirozov’s email, Claim Justice had website: www.claim-justice.com.  Through WhatsApp chats and calls, Refael indicated that his team would be to trace crypto transactions for me to provide the report to the law enforcement agencies and banks for investigations. Refael Mirozov wanted to charge a $25,000.00 fee which I used my credit card to pay for his team to trace crypto transactions from my wallet addresses that I provided to Claim Justice. I also contacted Meghan_Tech scammers network (“Dark Web Group”) that claimed to be able to recover the funds I lost to coinhekooll. I was revictimized by Meghan_Tech which I made over $65,000.00 US of BTC payments.

This is another phishing/ pig butchering attack. It takes you to a fake crypto mining site and uses a tracking link to identify the victim. This operation has been going on for several months now. I hope that some law enforcement agency will take action and shut these scammers down soon.

this is a group of pig butchering scam

Referred to me by a doctor friend on instagram. Said doctor had bought a new car and told me she has been investing for 6 weeks. The coach she is using is very experienced. And I let my guard down because of the referral. Once I connected with the coach thing went really fast and with large return in mere hours which I found unreal. Then I was not able to withdraw money says to contact customer service. Coach asked me to reach out to customer service. Customer service said I need to upgrade account. i asked how to upgrade, was given options but the actual upgrade is to be done with the coach! Then coach pushed me to upgrade

I was contacted by this guys Jerry Hutchinson, or second profile for a guy Mark Hutchinson fxfalcon owner. I was going through a bad time in my life, had a stroke, got melanoma, and my brother in law committed suicide. I was at my lowest in life and trusted this guy easily He offered to help me learn crypto investing by coping his trades in the metatrades.net account. Under the name Jerry Murphy. Not pushy and i only put on very small amounts of crypto. Each week i'd get more and more pressure to add diffent crypto currencies Bitcoin, litecoin, xrp, tether, etherum. Still my amounts were small. The pressure to buy the bot traders. I tried to withdraw my money when I become suspicious and it would not let me. So depressed, I don't have much money and I feel terrible for trusting this guy!
