things I have to do

[stardust2003]

Hi,
 I  posted on  another  thread  how  I  lost a  lot of  cash  on  bitcoin  in  2019  over many months
and  saw  my  money  disappear

now  I  have a  phone call   and  the  lady  tells me  I  now  have a substantial  sum
in   the  blogchain..  I  need to  do  certain  things  to  recover  the money

here is   the  basic  procedure....

To reactivate your account and receive your funds, please complete the following two steps:

Step 1: Verify your identity to confirm that you are the legitimate owner of this account.
Step 2: Connect your Bitcoin account to your bank account, where the funds will be transferred.

Once both steps are completed successfully, your account will be reactivated.

Subject: Required Steps to Complete Account Connection and Funds Transfer

Dear Client,

To proceed with the reactivation of your account and the transfer of your Bitcoin funds, please carefully follow the steps outlined below.
Step 1: Create a Revolut Bank Account

You are required to use a Revolut bank account for this process.

To create a Revolut account:

    Download the Revolut app from the App Store or Google Play Store.

    Open the app and register using your personal details.

    Complete the identity verification requested by Revolut.

    Once approved, your Revolut bank account will be active.

Step 2: Deposit £325 GBP into Your Revolut Account

After your Revolut account is active, please deposit £325 GBP into your account.
This deposit is required to establish the initial connection between your bank account and your Bitcoin account.
Step 3: Obtain a Virtual Card on Revolut

After depositing the funds, you must create a virtual card in your Revolut account.

To get a virtual card:

    Open the Revolut app.

    Go to the Cards section.

    Select Add New Card and choose Virtual Card.

    Your virtual card will be generated instantly.

Step 4: Create a Cryptocurrency Exchange Account (Exodus)

1. Download the Exodus Application

    Visit the official Exodus website or open the App Store / Google Play Store on your device.

    Search for Exodus Wallet.

    Download and install the application on your mobile phone or computer.

2. Open the Exodus Application

    After installation, open the Exodus app.

    Select Create New Wallet when prompted.

3. Set Up Your Wallet

    The system will automatically generate a new wallet for you.

    You do not need to provide personal details to create the wallet.

4. Secure Your Recovery Phrase

    Exodus will provide you with a 12-word recovery phrase.

    Write this phrase down exactly as shown and store it in a safe place.

    This recovery phrase is the only way to restore your wallet if you lose access.

    Do not share this phrase with anyone.

5. Create a Password

    Set a strong password to protect access to your wallet.

    This password will be required each time you open the Exodus app.

6. Access Your Bitcoin Wallet

    Once setup is complete, go to the Wallet section.

    Select Bitcoin (BTC) to view your Bitcoin receiving address.

    This address will be used to receive the funds from our system.

After completing these steps, your Exodus wallet will be fully active and ready to receive Bitcoin, exchange it, and transfer the funds to your bank account.

After you finish this steps you need to get in touch with me so I can guide you for the other part

  could  this  all be  yet another  scam  ?    eg  why  the £ 325  to Revolute  bank... ?

should  I  just  ignore this  lady  ?  I  admit  I  know  very little  about the  bitcoin  world  (  like most people  )

 thanks  for  any  comments or  advice  .....

Definitely a scam, there's no tech support for Blockchain so there's no way that someone will cold call you that you still have some bitcoins left in the Blockchain, ignore the instructions and move on. I think that you're due for a change in your life OP, you need to leave the past and accept that you can never get back what you've lost.

  could  this  all be  yet another  scam  ?

Yes, it is, there are no centralized services that have access to any lost Bitcoin.  Don't be greedy, and you know yourself that you don't have such funds on the blockchain.  They are only triggering your greed to get trap on their scheme.

   eg  why  the £ 325  to Revolute  bank... ?

This is possibly their target amount from you and more funds since they are free to ask you for processing fees, withdrawal fees, and all other fees, and yet the fund they are saying won't ever reach your account.

should  I  just  ignore this  lady  ?

Yes, you should ignore the person.

I've spotted multiple red flags in this. Bitcoin doesn’t work through accounts that can be “reconnected” to banks and no legitimate recovery process requires you to deposit money upfront. Scammers often push Revolut and wallets like Exodus because they’re easy for victims to set up.
For your own good, do not send any money and stop engaging further.

Scam! Scam!! Scam!!!

No random person will find your bitcoins for you after how many years, how was she able to contact you? Why do they want you to create an account with a specific bank and make some deposits into that bank account before proceeding with recovering your bitcoins? This is another scam, do not fall for it. Block the person ASAP and don't be tempted to give it a try.
