SCAM OR NOT?

[Asuspawer09]

Some one help. I bought /invested 500 in Bitcoin with someone I was told I would receive my return in 7 days after after which I was then told I had to a 1000 for profit withdrawal fee. This took 5 days to reflect in my coinbase wallet at which time I forwarded the funds. Now I'm asked to send another 1000 for a Crypto receiving allowance Fee before I receive my return. I have not sent it.

Do you mean 500 bitcoin? Well sorry for your loss.

I think this is a typical investment scam in bitcoin, and it's obviously a scam if someone is inviting you to invest in some websites. For sure you might want to invest in websites that is already trusted by the community you should do some research about it or even here in the forum.

You already lost what you invested don't send another fund because for sure you're going to get scam again.

In my understanding it was clear a scam.You need to send a higher amount again just to receive your profit which i think you already lost if you send $1000. Scammers are really just around,so be careful when you invest and don't trust someone easily that you really don't know yet.

This was an obvious scam, normal and decent people will not do that if they want to help someone earn profits. If they asked you to send money higher than your expected profit and if they ask you to send money first, that's clearly a scam. Especially, if you don't know that people personally.

You already lost your money, if you are aware at first about these kind of scams then you are not in that place right now where you are thinking about your mistakes. Prevention is always better, and you really don't deserve that kind of scenario where you will become a victim of scamming, no one deserves that.

Hey. I read your story and it sounds very sad, but I think that you can get your money back from scammers! But I do not give a 100% guarantee that I will help you return. I don't need any payment from you. If you want me to try to get your money back, then I will wait for your message! my telegram - @Fasesieno

Claiming to be an expert recover coins? Keep in mind bitcoin payment is irreversible, so there are no way to get it back after you send it. Also the negative trust on your account is enough to say you a scammer

Don't ever contact this guy!

[BrewMaster]

this is an obvious scam and it is pretty common, however the scammers using this method aren't usually this greedy. basically they scammed you the moment you sent them your money in first place but they saw the gullibility and wanted more. now they keep asking you to send them more money and the more you send the more they will ask.

there will never be any "payment" because this was never an "investment", this was a donation.

[Krislaw]

Sorry for the 500$ because that's what it is to me. You should have figured it out that it was a scam when you were asked to send additional 1000$ as a fee.  The scammer are somewhere laughing at your level gullibility. Next time, run away or avoid any conversation about money doubling if you don't want this to repeat itself.

It's totally scam and sorry to hear about this. Looks like OP get trapped into those scammers who always target new comers of crypto on social medias. So, stay away from all those users who dm you directly from nowhere/shadow and offer to earn profits in bitcoin. Stay safe with crypto.

True story?

Dude, if this thing actually happened, I don't know what to say. Where on Earth you will pay to someone for $1k worth of withdrawal fees? we're even crying for $1-$5 fees then yours is a thousand buck.

If your BTC is on coinbase wallet, you are free to withdraw its base on the network fees, not with that person's fee-setting.

There is no doubt that someone has fooled you. It should be known to you that in 7 days so much profit is not possible. Why did you step on this trap? He will show you more greed. Please refuse it.

legitcyptomarketfx! I've never heard of it before and thete is nothing about it on google search results.
It doesn't take a genius to realize that this is a pure scam.
First, you trusted a random petson you met on the Internet. Second, he promized to double your investment in 7 days which is too good to be true. Then, you were asked to send more to withdraw your earnings!!

Sorry to break it to you but your money is gone and there is no way to get it back so be careful of newbies suggesting to help you.

[supine]

Definitely a scam. Because if it is not they should not ask for another. Sorry to tell you but your money is long gone now.

It looks like you're a scam accomplice yourself. How are you going to help him m/her get his/her money back from the scammers? Isn't this another gimmick to milk him/her dey the more?

[Wysi]

You are scammed and don't just blindly trust anyone and there is only one way to earn profit that's by doing it on your own by learning about market. Please consult with someone or share you though over this forum before taking any such steps in the future. Now don't regret for the money which you have already lost as its not gonna comeback.

Consider this as an experience and move on.

You are already in the lion's tent, just look for a narrow escape to make. This explanation alone from the first sentence shows that.
And please cross check your words before posting. There are lots of grammar errors on the post. Try to recheck

I don't think so. That was so damn huge to let some stranger do their thing with it. I mean, no one would dare to let somebody hold that amount of assets they have. Maybe the numbers he's pointing out there, amounts to the currency of the country he's residing with; USD, EUR, PHP and etc.

Going back to OP. Do not ever believe into any one offering right away. You should know that, dealing with somebody you don't know about is always associated with unpleasant possibility  .

Be careful on this one he thinks that you can get easily scammed and he try his method to you there is no way he can help you if he know how he would have posted it here and advice you how to proceed, there are a lot of scammers in Telegram asking for a conversation to help you with your issues.

[Sanitough]

500 in bitcoin, you mean 500 usd in bitcoin right?

I guess you are wrong with what you did, investing with someone is always wrong and the return is quite unrealistic, so I'd like to think that you were already scam, even the moment you send that money, and even if you know that someone as there's no program or investment that would guarantee a return in just 7 days, and you are talking of a fix return here. What I can suggest is that accept the reality that you got scammed, move on and learn from that experienced.

[Assface16678]

I don't know why people keep supporting those platforms with the use of those tags.

• Can double your funds
• Legit
• No scam

Is the 500 above is USD or bitcoin? I think it's USD.
Those are absolutely a scam as the earlier you said you make an investment of 500 and you already have a profit with the 1000 dollars and before sending your funds you just need to pay 1000 again? Is this not too much loss to you lol.

500 investment + 500 profit + 1000 transaction fee?

All of this is lost to you, any side of this does not give a profit to you it's better to avoid and not entertain those people because why you need to sacrifice your 1000 USD for 500 profit? Are you still okay? if you accept this.

So you sent $500, and you expect a return in 7 days, after 7 days, you are told again to send $1000 to withdraw your profit, and good thing you didn't send again, so I would like to summarize, you only lose $500, of course because it cannot be BTC. 

Question;

Who's that someone? was it a company name, a person, or what?

Because my friend, ,it looks like you got scammed here, and there's no way for you to recover your money, unless you know the someone and you can go after that someone.

Another one has fallen to this kind of scam, it is not clear whether the OP specifies dollars but if it makes you post this thread then that means this is a large amount. Another thing is, why would you trust some trader from instagram, they could be manipulating the pictures of stocks that he won, you can do photo manipulation you know that. The fact that this is your first time is forgivable but the second is something for the books, be careful out there and do not be blinded by greed and quick buck. Bitcoin will be there for you and so is scammers so you better watch out, consider this as a learning experience and I hope that you will not fall for scams again.

[Lordhermes]

You have already fallen a victim of scam op, you invested 500 and asked 1000 for withdrawal fee, this is inappropriate for a legit investment platform or whatever it may be, never send any amount again for withdrawal fee, even if you send your money will not still reflect on your coinbase wallet. Each time your friend asks you to invest in something you don't understand, kindly initiate your idea of joining in let's analyse it for you. Be wise next time.
