The "friend" is a hot Singaporean girl living in LA.
Lol. I guess you learned a valuable life lesson. It's a textbook scam.
She texted me & I played along.
Playing along to keep a scammer busy is one thing. Sending them money is not "playing along", that is getting scammed!
She told me her rich uncle had a staff that could predict a window when BTC would go up or down.
It's amazing how gullible people are.
I decided to play along & put a couple hundred $ worth of ETH on the platform.
You
decided to get scammed?
the balance was up to $50k!!! I was able to withdraw $300, $200 & $1100.
Being able to withdraw only 2% didn't ring a bell?
I probably put a couple $1000 worth of BTC & ETH in the system. I never put any real cash in the game!!!
You couldn't be more wrong. Bitcoin
is real money!
As described in a reply, I had to deposit more crypto $ using my primary IP address so they could run the review, otherwise, they might freeze the account.
When I first saw your topic, I thought you were asking about this scam
before sending them money, but apparently you fell all the way in already.
I'm not locked out or anything. But here is the weird part. Maybe you all can find the angle they are trying to play.
It's easy: not your keys, not your coins. You have access to an account made by a scammer, that means
nothing.
-So where is the angle? If she send me the $250K in ETH how can that backfire on me?
-Why would she encourage me to make moe fake $$? She knows I'm not putting any more in.
You're a horny fool who fell right into their trap from the beginning. Of course they try to shake you for more money and they will try to bleed you dry to the very last satoshi you own.
It's a very weird scam when someone is saying "please please take my $250K in ETH".
A random victim has a very small chance of falling for their trap, You've proven to be a great victim who plays along willingly, and you've proven to easily send your money. That $250k doesn't exist, a number in a scammer's app means nothing. It's just to make you more greedy so you'll risk even more money.
Now you see why I wanted to get some advice...
I'll give you some advice: delete that app, wipe the phone, take your losses, lick your wounds, and forget about this "hot girl". You know the one you're chatting to is an ugly dude, right? You may have seen pictures of a girl, and they may even have hired her for a video chat, but come on, let reality sink in!
