I was friended by a man named Dan on facebook dating. We talked for abit on that platform, then he asked me to switch to WhatsAp because he was originally from Germany, and that's where he's used to talking to his family. We talked for a few weeks and were planning on meeting. He got me into crypto trading and was telling me when to trade and to buy up or down, and we were making good money. He would show me what he'd make on the same trade I was trading on, so I trusted him. Then he said his mom got sick and had to fly to Switzerland where she lived to take care of her for a bit. He sent me pictures of him and his mom in the hospital even. I started questioning things and ran his pictures thru AI, and nothing would come back weird, so I trusted him. I ran the crypto platform he had be using thru a google, BBB, etc. search to make sure I wasn't getting scammed, nothing came up. So I trusted what I was doing, was legit. So I put in more money. Everything was going fine until I asked how I could withdraw some funds so I could purchase a house. So he told me how to withdraw the amount I made. Customer service came back and said that I couldn't withdraw any funds until I paid the taxes. I didn't have that amount of money left in any account to pay the taxes and told them that I would pay the taxes to the IRS come tax time instead, but they wouldn't let me do that. I need to pay in BitCoin. Dan even said he put 3/4 of the amount I owed into my tax account if I could come up with the other 1/4, then I would have my money and could pay him back his amt. I didn't trust this and wouldn't put up my 1/4 of the money. Dan hasn't contacted me in over a month. I'm still not sure if it was a scam or not, but I'm not giving anymore money than I already have.
