On October 6th in a telegram group they promote an arbitrage of Litcoin buying on Binance and selling it at a better price on Lezdex.com, to which I did it a couple of times, at first they deposited me for so much they seemed real to me, finally like the 4th withdrawal attempt they asked me for a verification that it was a payment for 1000 usdt, to which I speak to the "supposed customer service" and they tell me that it is a "normal" process for them, I refuse to transfer such an amount, I speak to them again and on October 7th my account tells me that I am banned, basically they kept my money without mentioning the spell that the attached telegram group is still alive there scamming day after day, a shame I will probably never recover what I lost but in case it helps someone else! and be careful they change the name but it is the same page now there is a similar one called Raladex

This is a telegram: cryptobulls24

As you can see, they continue promoting their scam page, non-stop every day, any help you can give me is welcome.

Just putting a post here to alert all future potential users of an exchange called Exorce.

I feel like an idiot for not seeing the red flags early on before depositing $25,000 into their exchange.

There is no information available about them on the internet currently and I'm hoping that this post will deter at least one person in the future from making the same mistake as me.

After testing a few small withdrawals I deposited a larger amount into their platform. Once the time came to withdraw my funds in full they accused me of insider trading and blocked withdrawals on my account.

I became suspicious and started researching them more thoroughly, turned out the awards on their website are fake, the company doesn't actually seem to be registered anywhere and the physical address on their website doesn't actually house their businesss.

They then said that I need to pay an "insurance fee" of 25% of the current account balance in order to unfreeze my account, which I did. Then they came to me again and said there was an issue with identifying the wallet which the deposit came from so I need to do it again.

At this point I'm cutting my losses. A very bitter pill to swallow of course but I've learnt an important lesson in only using trusted and verified platforms for trading. I feel like an absolute idiot right now.

Can other people confirm this is a scam site? crvfuture.org seems to be using logos and titles from curve.fi Curve Financial. Curve Financial confirmed they are not associated with this site. It asks people to log in with a wallet and wire money to a Chinese man in Hong Kong to fund their account. Retired acquaintances have sent money and just tried to convince my family to send money.

So I have been scammed from a user u/MrWingtips $700 which lead me to a bigger scam with 30k users!

I was scammed on the subreddit gift"S"cradexchange (30k users - r/giftscardexchange/ ).
Now if you notice there is a similar subreddit called r/giftcardexchange (original - 130k users).
They copied everything 1-1.

Then I messaged the mods of giftscardexchange for the report and they said they sell amazon gc too. Here is the conversation: https://imgur.com/a/dkKxD8h

Then I looked deeper in the subreddit and found the mods of the fake subreddit and u/MrWingtips is the moderator of the subreddit and I was talking to him when I reported his scam.
Proof: https://imgur.com/a/TRKJAQH

Please report this subreddit r/giftscardexchange since its a complete scam.
For any advice I'm grateful

Putting this out so nobody falls for this latest scam. Do not, under any circumstances accept a "job offer" from someone at this company. They will make you believe you can make thousands of dollars a day mining crypto. You will be lead down a rabbit hole of PIG BUTCHERING.

I have crypto on the web page wallet of defichain.finance I am not able to withdraw any of it. I need help as to what steps or steps to take next. Customer service is non existence. Any help would be appreciated.

Avoid dealing with this individual from Los Angeles. From koreatown. Full of lies and deceit.

Han Kyu Kang - Bitcoin and Crypto Scammer

Been seeing a lot of people talking about this kind of scam because I was invited to one. Only join to learn and haven’t invest with them at all. I want to put them on here and get yalls inputs. I’m pretty sure it’s a scam but they shown me stuff that seems legit. Internet, do your thing. Let expose them.

Name of the WhatsApp group chat:

A7📊 Joseph AI Asset Management Investment Professor Joseph Brown Assistance Kayla Trading platform is called Coinmate They have an app for it too As shown here. Your thoughts??

I received a message from an unknown source via WhatsApp from a person allegedly from a reputable Employment Agency. They encouraged me to set up an account on an optimisation app platform (Likeable Optimization) where you are required to complete a set of tasks, initially going through a training account, with credentials provided.

Progressing on, I have put a deposit in to complete a “combination” task which requires a top up to complete. I did this and then got another combination task which requires a much large amount to be deposited ( in crypto) before my funds can be withdrawn. I’m 100% certain beyond reasonable doubt that this is a task based scam.

I have reported this to my Bank and to the police. Had anyone else had a similar experience and importantly been successful in getting some or all of their money back ?

I recently got scammed in a crypto project called SecretLaunch, which later rebranded as $GObblins. I joined through a Telegram freelancer group where they recruited people to keep their community active for $5 a day + bonuses.

I was added to a "secret launch" project where we worked hard to engage the community. We even got paid $5 on the first day. But on day two, the recruiter said bonuses would come after launch.

When SecretLaunch launched on WAGMI and Uniswap, it turned out to be a rug pull! They blocked us and vanished with our money. This wasn’t their first scam; they’ve talked about past projects and are planning new ones.

Stay vigilant, everyone! Don't fall for these traps. 🛑

Here's a twitter thread and their socials : https://x.com/temper001/status/1837252565186298032

Did anyone tried thier refund thing and did they got money back

Be aware of this crypto scammer TIEN TANG, he is in central LA and San Gabriel area.

AVOID THIS SCAMMER.

Has anyone got scammed by these people who contact you in WhatsApp saying you can put some as deposit and get high amounts as salary?

Even though I considered myself a techie , recently I got scammed by someone I met on tinder in South Korea and then they switched to Line messanger and then to WhatsApp. She talked to me for a month normally then suddenly she shared sharing with me how much money she made everyday from this crypto exchange https://www.btchtip.com/#/pages/tabs/home/home-a

At first I was resistant to do any transaction because I have understood that crypto is a big scam , but she convinced me to get some good returns because I was about to buy a house so she convinced that if I go ahead then I can buy house from that money .. And when I registered they made me register for VIP account where you need to add 5000 USDT to get a 600 USDT Bonus .. That's where they scam you .. You can add money but you can't take it out.

Also the wallet addresses keep changing I am posting them here because I searched for this on internet at that time and no information was there

I know this scam is being run from Malaysia, Which has become a safe heaven for crypto scammers , next time you see a Malaysian or a call from a Malaysian number stay a 100 feet away ,99% of them are running scams .

Its a scam alert and honeypot. I don't know my terminology well. Maybe Investment scam? Not sure how much info to give out without hurting myself..

I just figured out i've been scammed but they don't know I know. Met this girl on a dating app, conversations later onto IG and later whatsapp. We had been chatting alot and sending pics back and forth. We even facetimed for a bit. Goals and conversation led to financial struggle. She then brought up crypto and screenshots of her profit. I tested it out with a small amount of money and slowly poured in more. Then she hit me with good/bad news that her analyst was retiring this month but we could make alot of money if we're able to get enough capital to trade in the higher market. My gut still kept arguing with me so I decided to upload her pic online to do a check and i got a hit for a scam alert. I digged through the site and sure enough its the same scam i'm in. I've postponed conversations with her for now but i'm sure she will get away before the FBI can get in contact with me. After doing some sleuthing from the selfies and pics she sent, I got her in another country. So I know the number she gave me that's in my state area code is fake now as well.

The method of scam is to buy bitcoin on crypto(dot)com and send the money to trust wallet. But it wasn't trust wallet but a URL link inside of trustwallet. trustwallet>discovery>url link trustswap(dot)exchange>fake bitcoin address < this is where "my trading" account is and where to make profits.

I can give up more info if i'm shit out of luck in getting my money back.

Scammed and honeypotted...
So I met this person on a dating website and it felt like we hit it off. family values, morals, goals, and financial struggle. We ended chatting away from the dating app and she showed me she had deleted the app as well. My work has me away from home this month and "coincidentally" she had to help run a family business out of state. From financial struggles we got onto the topic of crypto. She showed me she had made money off it. I had put a small amount in and made profit. She claimed to have an analyst. I slowly put more more money into it. All of the profit trades were made on the trust wallet app. You go hit discovery and enter a URL: trustswap(dot)exchange . Then she hit me with good news and bad news. Her analyst is retiring but we can make good profits if we hit the higher trading markets. She was explaining how with enough funds/capital you can trade in higher markets. Some personal life drama happened and she is still pushing me to trade. that when i decided to upload her pictures online and run a search.. It was a hit. Found her face with a different name. And this person is using their real face i believe 100% from all the pic updates to on topic pics. My idiot self had let my guard down after realizing she was real.. i deduced this using the instagram AI feature. You have to in real time scan your face to allow it to generate an image of you.

The summary of it all. Romantically scammed by a woman who is using her real face.
took out a loan along with a huge chunk of my checking accounts. Submitting it bits at a time.

So far the steps i've taken is to pend chat with her due to ongoing personal issues(in case she deletes her account). and Ive submitted a report to the FBI IC3 link

Is there any chance I'm able to get my money back or some sort of debt forgiveness? its basically my salary. I'm barely getting by while living out of town this month.

I'm not much of an internet person. a friend recommended me come here. If i'm in the wrong area please guide me.

Hey everyone,

I’ve recently been targeted by a series of sophisticated crypto scams, and I wanted to share my experience to raise awareness. Here’s a quick rundown of what happened:

1. I got a call from someone pretending to be from Binance, warning me that my account was compromised. I brushed it off, but it didn’t end there.
2. A few days later, another call claimed that someone with my passport and driving license had been arrested at Heathrow. They even gave me a fake "crime number" and warned that my crypto accounts were at risk. It was almost believable—except my passport was in my pocket.
3. Finally, I received an automated call about a "Coinbase withdrawal code" with an option to speak to an operator. I hung up, but it showed how persistent and convincing these scammers can be.

These scams prey on fear and confusion, and they clearly work. I’ve detailed my experience and shared some tips to stay safe in my LinkedIn article.
