Hello people (very important message)

 I have witnessed and myself experienced being scammed by a guy called cryp_branco on Instagram. He has an open user and he posts fake trades on Blockchain. He also makes stories where he shows "Scams" for trying to verify his account better. He sounds very professional, so watch out for him if any of u ever meet him. This guy will say something like you will get 10% of what u invest each day, that will make it 300% in 30 days. After 3 days, he will say something about a mining upgrade which will suddenly give you an insane amount of Bitcoins (I got 6,8 BTC) but you have to pay 15% of it to get access to it. This is all a lie. I have contacted local police and given them evidence for this, but I dont anything will happen sadly. This guy also gave his company website (but maybe fake) : crypto-hub.net   I recommend everybody to report this guy.

I have been in such pain for 2-3 weeks, even in my exams period as a student. I am really dissapointed and I feel terrible for the time being. I planned everything with the money he offered me, my future, and live a better life. I was so confident he wasnt a scammer until I found his e-mail was fake and he also sent me fake diplomas and verifications who were photoshopped to prove me wrong. I really let myself down.

It is apparent that this is scam just by looking at the investment offers, there's no way that a mining pool can give you that exorbitant returns. Also by looking at the domain details, this company is fairly young, the website was just created 67 days ago.

So there's a lot of red flags here, that's why you should always research before investing anything in crypto space. Let this be a lessons learnt on your part.

Thanks man, I talked with my dad about it and he also said the same. Make this an experience, now our jobs are to prevent this to happen again to other people. Btw this guy again tried to contact some of my friends, luckily I warned them and they confronted him.
