Trying to recover funds from bitcoin scam

[angrybirdy]

I suggest you to not invest on such sites anymore and to never give personal details of your transactions or crypto currency balances to strangers.
When you have an issue like that to solve, look for trusted people to help you, that is very important.
There is a lot of scammers around trying to re-scam people who has been scammed recently, as they were an easy target for their shady approaches... Stay alert and don't even reply messages like that. Let scammers talking by themselves.

I agree. It is not recommended to ask random people just to ask for them to help you. There are lots of scammers around, they are always in the corner waiting for someone to become their victim. It is best to not to trust anyone so easily and avoid doing transactions so easily.

Lol, someone is telling you to pay a thousand dollars to get your funds back and you still want to ask whether it’s a scam? Lolz. Even if we are to assume that it’s not a scam, do you think that it’s right that you’re going to be paying such an amount just to recover that amount? This is a full scam, so I will advise you stop talking to them so you don’t end up losing more after this.

Scammers are always 1 step ahead from the normal users who have no experience.Therefore they always try to scam in a typical way and people with zero experience get fall into it.
So my suggestion is that when it's about money always do research and learn about scammers.

Yes you’re saying the truth, there will always be people who are inexperienced, and they usually fall for these scams. I have reached a level where I can easily tell that something is a scam, but even when I was a noob I was still never scammed, although back then I wasn’t able to identify them easily, but I still never fell for it.

Hello. I invested in in Coinxcryptominingcom last year which turned out to be a scam site. I posted on instagram about my ordeal and was recently contacted by @_jacob.armstrong about recovering my lost funds. He suggested contacting slushpool.com and gave me an email contact@slushpool.co.uk to explain my story. I sent them my transactions with wallet addresses to where i sent my funds and this is the response I received.

Good Day ,
We can see from our records and investigations that all your money is on a cloud crypto currency wallet and none of it is lost This is because the CME  ( Chicago Mercantile Exchange)  gap got filled at $9200 on the 2019-6-16 08:42pm which is the exact time you sent 0.31433482  BTC  ($2,861),
See the has code below as all your money in the cloud has amounted to this
https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1MvuFAodHn775joqCnahJTiHuMnsQZnxM9

However, we have tested your funding several times and each time it got exhausted by the blockchain liquidation machine.
Nevertheless, we can successfully say all your money is in safe hands and the only way for all your money is to be released  is if  you are  to make an API Integration fee payment so all your funds amounting  to 8.79034054 BTC  will be released within  5  hours

You need to send 0.20 BTC ($1,897) as a fee to claim back your account.
And the additional fee of 0.20 BTC ($1,897) to recover all your funds.
We can say the total amounting to 0.41 BTC ($3,700) this payment is to be made within 48 hours if you want a successful refund of all your funds

The payment is to be made into this BTC address:  14hBpJncS6fqKZqoYAjRCGmbc63ZhLJ6Xs

Is this another scam? Any insight would greatly be appreciated.

I don't think there will be any work with free here, the reverse fee money will just go. A scam and I don't think you will get your money back anyway. Learn from this mistake and then proceed with caution. Refrain from paying them anymore.

Please noted:
Scammers will never give back your money, they will precisely want to take your money again, again and again.
So, be careful another scamming is coming to you. Never believe in any party or person that will help you to get back your money to you if they ask some funds to do it. It is absolutely another scam.
If you're scammed, let it go because you may not get it back. Just make it is a lesson to be more careful when investing and also putting your money.

What can you expect from them? they are criminals and they will steal your money.

Most of the time, newbies are the most prone to this kind of circumstances because they are easily lured by these scammers. That's the reason why if we know someone who is new to a cryptocurrency industry, we should inform them about those hazards because scammers will do anything just to fool people with their fake platform or website. Don't expect for a refund if you are victimized by these people, even if you cry a lot, they will not give your money back. Don't repeat the same mistake ever again.

I had similar experience with localbitcoins. Someone took control of my account, and it has got 0.2btc. During those days I wasn't aware of the 2FA, the person who took control of my account has took my balance amount and he then called me informing your account has been hacked. Suddenly I tried to access it, but I wasn't able to enter into my account. I called him back, and he demands to transfer 0.05btc, so that my account balance along with this 0.05btc will be credited back to the account. I understood the situation and pleased him to give me back. Suddenly he ended the call, and the number isn't in usage anymore.

Good for you that asking here first before sending another scam attempt.

Look at how they fool you,

You wanted to take your funds back and they are the one who was being suggested to solve your problem  then why need to ask another amount just for recovery?

That is stupidity to believe,it is their obligation to bring back your funds so they have no rigths to ask for money.

Do not easily trust people who only you know on the internet, let alone involve large amounts of money, even though they provide guarantees that your assets will be returned. Come on, understand the crypto ecosystem well, assets that have been sent to others cannot be canceled or withdrawn unless with the approval of the new owner. Do not let you get caught in another fraud mode. You better use the money for something more useful, learn the right investment or trading strategy, do the analysis, learn to the right people and you believe, motivate yourself to be able to get profits so that you can cover the losses you can last year.

This is obviously another scam and I'm glad you've not taking any step to send them your funds, the @_jacob.armstrong guy obvious saw you as a target he can easily prey on and out of him being smart, he thought it would be more convincing if he gave you a scam email which in created because i doubt if that email belongs to slushpool.com due to the fact that it dosen't end with .com rather it did with .com.uk! Scammers will always find ways to prey on people by devising any means possible

Here is another asshole @anderson_abade_ bitcoin scam artist. He claims his company can recover scammed funds through contacts he has on the dark web for a fee. He is a pathological liar. His whatsapp is 1 (209) 314-0311. Spread the word and spam the fuck out of this prick.

You can try a lot of course but once it's scammed it's gone

Spamming scammers won't deter them from making further attempts to scam others. The best strategy is to either completely ignore their overtures or report them to Telegram so their accounts can be sanctioned. Even at that, these scammers can open several accounts later. On a related development, I guess you finally got your Bitcoin returned to you and you didn't send further coins to that dude in your OP? Whatever you do, please stay away from cloud mining or doubling sites. They're all scam.

And another best strategy is to get people informed and aware so that nobody will fall victim to this obvious lairs, if he claims this is possible - recovering of a stolen btc, then he can probably present evidence of some of the client he has already helped with this situation, it is better for people to learn and understand that once there is a stolen or mistaken send to a wrong address btc occur it can never be gotten back except the thief or the mistaken address decided to return the fund.

Regardless of whether it is a scam or a pending scam waiting to be happened, situations like this are most likely will not occur to someone who is new within the Cryptocurrency Industry since those decisions are already involving big exchanges of money. These kinds of news are somehow not true or even baiting other people to fish for some help which is financial help but of course, most experienced users would just likely want newbies to report this to the website in which you are scammed or even just spread news that you were scammed and not explain how is it most likely you were scammed.
