I just read your story throughout this whole thread. It happens to a lot of people sadly. These scammers would do bulk email and phone sending to random people around the world and it is not just on crypto. This same "scam group" also happens outside crypto and it is more like involving local digital payments here in my country and they are also irreversible when you send money to someone.
Source: Been seeing it a lot in public Facebook groups.

It seems you are left with no choice but to communicate with that group and attempt to negotiate for your Bitcoin. Other than that, you could report it to the authorities especially if it involves a huge amount, but it would probably take a lot of time and process that could all result to nothing.
You know, you're not the only newbie who got scammed. A number of us have our fair share of similar experiences. But rather than discourages us, it somehow makes us a tad wiser and become a reminder to others.

Appreciate the honesty, I have already reported to some authorities. It just irks me that I searched for the company online and they had no bad info about them. The scheme was pretty elaborate and the website is still up and running.

The scheme was pretty elaborate and the website is still up and running. Perhaps rest of the investors haven't realized they are being scammed yet or they have a way to delete any bad info about them and keep only the paid good info as bait to lure innocent investors in. Don't worry (law of karma will catch up with them soon) and don't let this discourage you, am sure some day you will get back what you lost through another genuine investment, this time try to invest through well known trading platforms, there are several with decent reputation. Good luck.

Hi, just joined group. I should of searched a little deeper before I invested with a BTC trading group. Long story short the reason I am here is I need advice if there is anyway to get my funds back that are on a trading platform that will not let me withdraw. I read quite a few posts before I posted this and what I concluded is: 1. Recovery is next to impossible 2. Do not throw good money after bad on a “crypto recovery company” 3. No authorities will help not even Coinbase where the transactions were wired from. Anyway I am sucker who got scammed
You basically answered your own questions. The only thing you could do is to reveal the scam trading group and/or the scam trading platform,so that other people won't get caught in this scam. You are not a sucker,but you should've done a proper research before spending any coins on some shady,unknown trading platform.Many people got scammed like you,so you are not the only one.There's no point of having regrets.Just learn from your mistake and move on. My advise to the newbies is to stick with the most popular and regulated crypto trading platforms.This is just common sense. Joining some unregulated trading platform increases the risk of getting scammed.

Lots of good to be true offers such as this one you are talking about are circulating in the telegrams and the emails that I was using for bounties but if you already know what they are up to, you can simply ignore their message and turn away from every offer they give you. I recommend not to talk to them because these people have all the tricks in the book to fool you and once they got your trust, you ended up losing your money forever just like what the OP has experienced.

aas you already mention on the title itself. We are talking about UNREGULATED exchange here which means the owner can run freely since there business is not registered officialy to let them tracked in case they scam you although authority can help you recover your funds if the money involved is huge and worthy to allocate resources just to recover it. If the amount is just small, Consider it already gone as this is the cons on using unregulated exchange at the first place. You should learn your lesson and move on.

if there is anyway to get my funds back that are on a trading platform that will not let me withdraw. Of course you should be able to withdraw your fund but one thing I know that can hinders you from such is if you break their rules and your being suspected for one or two suspicious activities that called for attention, atimes the exchange you're using also determines because some may put you on "user verify account" which will be required before you can perform some certain functions, also your country matters, if you're located in a region tagged then you might have this challenge as well, so most times they are KYC related issues.

There is something I m not getting cleared from you and somehow got confused with your post. Questions you asking is already answered by you so wondering what you needed again. If you sent BTC to scam wallet then you have to forget about it as it's missing which can never be seen or reversed to you again. Before dealing with any untrusted platform which you suspected to be scam is to make proper research about the platform or venture before going ahead with any deal or transactions.

What he said was even quite confusing as he said that it was a trading group and later said it was a trading platform. Well, whatever it is, as long as it is as scam, there is no way that he is getting that money back. It’s clear in cryptocurrency that any wrong transaction you make, there is no reversing back. It’s not like PayPal where you can send money and reverse it if there is a problem, there is no such possibility. He should have done his research before investing his money into that platform, instead he chose to trust them with his money and when he suspected it’s a scam is when he decided to make his research.

Getting your funds refunded back to you may be an haculian task because we don't know the group you've joined that demanded a deposit of funds from you as stake, the most challenging thing is that whenever you fall in hand of those trading platform who apparently appears to be as a result of scam cant afford any refundment to it user. i will advise you to do away with all forms of groups on trading platforms that guarantees ROI because one ended on being scammed at the end, in cryptocurrency and bitcoin as a matter of fact, things were best done if you can do them all by yourself because that's the first security you could give to yourself.

A lot of lessons to learn every day on crypto scams that had been occuring everytime. I don't blame people for being weak to be easily scammed by online scammers. I know anyone can be liable to fall victim against any crypto scam but we all need to be careful so such will not repeat itself again. It is obvious that newbies are likely to fall to this kind of scam from unknown trading site that do guarantee big profit when trading with them. I have once fall victim to this kind of mistake and I learnt my lessons.

It's unfortunate that you stumbled upon this kind of scenario given that you're still a newbie. It would have been hard to grasp thinking that you are just new, but already crossed path with scammers and schemes. However, it already happened and the least you can do is to do better next time. If you badly want to trade, give a shot only to those reputable trading platforms. There are many reputable and trusted platforms that offer trading features. The only thing you have to do is to of course, research and do a background checking. The moment you want o enter something, it should be a protocol to check reviews about them first. In anything that there is money involved, you shouldn't put your trust easily because there are many people on the Internet that are greedy. Sadly, you encountered one. Not just once, but twice basing on your statement. If a trading platform offers a too good to be true offer, doubt it already and trust your instincts. And if ever you got fooled the first time around, be more cautious the next time so it won't happen again. I've read similar scenarios as yours in which they got scammed and then afterwards, a person offered to recover what they lost in exchange of money. This is an old scheme already and you should be aware of that. Most of the scammers want to get the most out of their victims pocket. So, do not easily believe people offering you help.

I mean there are way too many people who get fooled by people and lose their money, it wouldn't be the first, hardly in the first million probably. We have seen so many places that stole money from people and honestly it is definitely not a deal that I would be upset about neither because if you are gullible enough to think that someone will make you richer than you could hope for, just because they will take some shares of that profit, then you are too gullible to be rich anyway. The rich become rich because they are ruthless and cunning and they do not let emotions get in the way of money, they do not have trust for anyone but just profit.

Don’t be too hard on yourself mate, such things do happen especially when you’re still a newbie in the market. It has happened to a lot of people here, you just have to learn from it and move on and nothing more.
And as for recovering the money you have lost, there is no way that you can recover it. Don’t pay people who claim that they can recover a lost crypto for you, cryptocurrency transactions can’t be reversed.
Any lost transaction is lost for good and can’t be got back in most cases.
Try to always do your research, avoid fake exchanges and make use of the most trusted platforms.

Yes it is not possible to rewithdraw your Scammed money, either the Scammers will not send you back the money. If you are trying to retrieve the money you will be get scam the more because the will deceive you to bring more money to increase the profit or others and nobody can help you to do that. The only people that can do that or help you are the Economic and Monetary Crime Agencies. Or a professional hackers from Federal Government. And those people you will pay a big amount of money to do the work. Therefore, I will advise you to leave it and do not invest on any platform you see online, most of the are fraudsters. I will also advise you that instead of Investing learn how to trade and trade by yourself. But you can invest if you see a genuine platform to do so. But how will you know it is an another question. You can go and ask trading Board and ask for a good platforms

There are not a lot that you can do now, because that money is gone. What you can do is to help other people not to fall into the same trap.... Go to this site https://badbitcoin.org (hope they still accept new reports) and report them as scammers. (So if someone Google them, they will be directed to that site) You can also start a scam accusation here ==> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 with a detailed explanation and some screenshots of your discussions. <=== This will raise a second red flag, when people google them. They most probably used a burner phone for the WhatsApp, but even burner phones leave "Location" information and also footprints to track them down. (Wifi connectivity / Cellphone provider logs / Purchase information for data...) Good luck.... Hope you get to burn them to the ground!

Try to always do your research, avoid fake exchanges and make use of the most trusted platforms.
And do not be too scared to ask if an exchange you've just known is legit or not. No one will laugh at you upon questioning because it's very essential for a newbie to ask if he has no idea if that exchange is a scam or not. Use sources like coingecko in checking if it's there and that's a good start for researching if that exchange is legitimate. And if it's not enough for you, just post on the right section and ask about its legitimacy.

Hmmm, so you didn't even read their regulations or requirements before you invested but you have to do some reading here before you posted, if you did go back to look at their rules, is it that you can never withdraw, or its a time period thing? or is the site just an outright scam site? There is always a lesson in everything and I guessed you have learned some. sorry if you are eventually unable to withdraw though and do more research before investing in any crypto even if it is through a trusted exchange.
