Hey, can someone help me in this? I deposited $250 USD with AI GLOBAL GROUPs http://www.ai-globalgroupsvip.com/ in 2023 as a first test for crypto investment. I received regular phone calls from the Account managers to deposit more but I didn’t. A couple of weeks ago I was told that my funds have increased exponentially and when I logged into the platform it showed 60000 USD. I was asked by the account manager to close my account and withdraw the funds. I kept asking them if I need to make further deposit to withdraw the funds. I felt this is not true. They said no and asked to open a Metamask account and coinjar account to withdraw funds to my bank account. I linked my bank account to coinjar. As a test they helped me withdraw 20USD from the AIG platform to the Metamask wallet. Then came the twist. I received an email last night that this is a massive withdrawal and I need to have 8.25% of the amount which is around 1.5 ETH in my Metamask account as my ownership of my tokens and it is mine only and there is no risk. I gave the withdrawal request for the entire 60000 USD giving my Metamask address and the fund is not in their platform and also not in Metamask. They say the funds is now in their custodian wallet and for them to connect and transfer to my Metamask account I need to deposit this 8.5% of 60000 usd into my Metamask. I read bad reviews about AIG and also the increase looks like fake. One thing I am not clear about is they are asking me to deposit into my metamask account and how can they access my account to launder my money which is the 8.25%. How can they show this enormous profit on their platform? Would it be fake? Can this be real? Can anyone advise me on this?

They are asking over 5k$ to process your payment. Also. You put in 250$, now all the sudden it has multipied by 240x the initial investment.
There is zero chance this anything real.
The most typical scam, with new twist, creating new ways to track off victims.
Dont do it.
When you hear "very good news" from the internet.
Its is a scam if you need to make payment first, always.
You could have also just googled it, and found out its a scam....?
Also their domain name doesnt sound too reliable.

Without any explanation, this is a scam and you have to disengage any connections that they can have to withdraw your funds from your bank account.
They are a scam site.
Any investment site asking for you to deposit some money to withdraw your funds from your account is definitely a scam.

Ignore their attempts to persuade you from depositing money so you can withdraw your "profit" from their website. Scams like this are very common nowadays, sadly a lot of people have become a victim of it. out of curiosity, what made you decide to even put a $250 deposit on that website?

This is a notorious and unreal scam platform. It was known on the ai-globalgroup[.]com domain after it was dropped, and now they manage this domain that you mentioned, OP, and ai-globalgroups[.]com. This unregulated platform engages in trading activities for cryptocurrencies and forex. And what happened to you after they contacted you to persuade you to deposit more money, then they lured you with fake profits and money on their platform is the modus operandi of scammers who deceive their victims. (it is worth noting that there are no guaranteed profits and fixed results in the crypto or Forex market, as they are very volatile) When a person withdraws the huge profits that he has achieved on their platform, they will ask him to deposit large sums of money to withdraw his pending profits. This is certainly a clear scam, as after he deposits his money, they will seize it and close his account completely. I advise you to avoid depositing the 8.25% because you will not get $60K in the end. You have already lost $250, so be careful not to allow them to deceive you again for a larger amount. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

How can they show this enormous profit on their platform?
As easily as I type $20 000 000. No difference between someone typing 20,000 or 5 in our balance on a site they own. Would it be fake? 100% Can this be real?
No! Can anyone advise me on this?
The moment somebody is asking you for money to send you more money back it's a scam! When you withdraw money from your bank do they ask you to deposit a 50 cent fee before cashing out $500? Or do they logically and normally take the money from your account before? You got scammed once for $250 so time to face reality, not a pretty one but still reality: - you lost $250 - your earnings do not exist - any money you send will be gone - any documents you send them for KYC will be sold on darknet markets

How can they show this enormous profit on their platform? Because those are just numbers on the screen, not the actual money. Would it be fake? Can this be real?
It is fake and no, it can't be real. Just ask yourself, does it make any sense to you to be able to make $60k out of measly $250? Rule of thumg: if something sounds too good to be true, its a scam. So please, for the love of God don't send them any money and forget about the initial deposit. Btw, your poll makes no sense.

Based on the too many questions you asked, it seems you have hope or you are trying to convince yourself that this is not a scam and there is a chance to withdraw those $60k. Don't waste your time and/or your money, it's a scam! Then came the twist. I received an email last night that this is a massive withdrawal and I need to have 8.25% of the amount which is around 1.5 ETH in my Metamask account as my ownership of my tokens and it is mine only and there is no risk.
Do you really believe this? Does it make any sense to you? What coins and why do you need to prove you own them? If they want to be sure the provided wallet is yours then all you have to do is to sign a message with its private key. No need to deposit anything.

This is why it is extremely important to do your own research first before doing anything especially when it comes to investing, forums like this exist to help individuals who are new to crypto. I'm sad that you got scammed but you should use this incident as a lesson to broaden your knowledge about the dangers you will encounter on the internet, scams like this aren't exclusive to crypto, so even you are not going to give crypto another you should still be cautious and do your research before making any financial decisions online.

And you now just drew the completely wrong conclusion! What if the guys offering you this investment would have talked about oil, diamonds, nvidia shares, would all those be schemes just because you have been lied by a scammer? If you had invested those $250 in Bitcoin with a real exchange there would have been no scammer involved, you would have had your money and you would have had by now also a small, down to reality close to earth profit. If I click an ad that tells me Musk is investing via xtradermuchsuchtalentfreemoney.com in gold and I lose all that money, is Musk or gold at fault or me believing a fake ad! Stick to a reputable platform and that's it!

Sorry but you took the wrong method of trying out crypto. You were looking for quick gains and when your greed got over your head, you started making the logically wrong steps of depositing on a scam site and falling for the old "deposit to withdraw" trick. The members of this forum are very active in speaking out against such scam and if you would have made a thread here about information regarding this site, I am sure many would have chimed in with their comments and your money would have been saved. If you quit now, you are going to leaving out on this upcoming and developing financial sector, but ultimately it is your choice and decision to make. It is just that I feel bad seeing someone get left out form crypto just because of their own mistake.

What happened to you has nothing to do with crypto. You have been deceived, just as if you bought rotten bananas. It is obvious that you don't have enough knowledge about the whole thing, forex trading, and you certainly don't know much about crypto. $250 it's not a lot of money if you learn some lessons from it. So, for example, you will not go tomorrow to buy a screwdriver and decide to be an aircraft mechanic, because you saw somewhere that they make good money.

The name of website is already suspicious and that instruction given to you was an obvious scam. You have to remember that scammers will play out with your emotion and that's why you need to be careful with it. You've already felt it but then you should you have researched in the first place. Thanks all. I wanted to give crypto a try and I got scammed. No never again.
Sorry to hear your experience but this isn't only happening in crypto. Even in real life with the banks, financing and almost every sector that has got money involved it happens. You can still invest in crypto but this time, only buy with known exchanges and start and stay with buying Bitcoin.

One of the things that people should look for on a platform is if there's deception is trying to claim something that they are not, on this platform they claim that But checking on Whois they only launched last year https://www.whois.com/whois/ai-globalgroupsvip.comso how can they generate millions of users within that short time, it's just not possible, if they are trying to manipulate information then they are scams, trying to entice you to invest.

As a test they helped me withdraw 20USD from the AIG platform to the Metamask wallet. Allowing a withdrawal of just $20 out of $60,000 which is not even up to 0.1% of the account balance, is a clear sign anybody would have noticed that was a mere strategy to luring you into depositing more. How can they show this enormous profit on their platform? Would it be fake? Can this be real?
Can anyone advise me on this?
It's their platform, hence they are likely to display any figure just to convince potential clients into falling for their scamming strategy, because showing a profit of $60,000 over a $250 investment just within a space of 1 year, to me is a red-flag and a clear indicator such is likely to be a scam, of which if only you had deposited the extra 8.25% they requested, that's how you would have lost all your money. And it's quite unfortunate many people have fallen for such a trap due to greed, wanting to reap where they did not sow.

It's too good to be true. I am sure that their main goal is to get access to the 1.5 ETH that they are asking to deposit into your wallet. It is possible that they have already gained access to your wallet when you joined their site and, accordingly, it will not be difficult for them to withdraw these coins to their wallet.

I don't think this is possible unless he has approved a transaction without verifying its details. When you connect your wallet to an online website, all the website owner can see is your wallet address (Including its balance and transaction history.. the usual information you can get by looking it up on any block explorer). What they are likely going to do is to initiate a transaction which sends all his coins to them and ask him to approve it, hoping he will be careless and doesn't check the transaction details.
