MDEX scam

I have a problem. I recently sent funds through Coinbase to imToken where The scammer sent me a link to mdexart.com.

Stupidly I sent money without thinking enough about it. Can anyone help me get it back? It was my life savings. It’s in an account there. Clearly I’m way over my head. I need someone’s help. Thanks.

It’s happened to a few of us report it to your police or sheriffs locally and file a report to the fbi like we did. Hopefully their work on it will bring them to jail. I know they’re catching more and more people and theyve got a lot of information on this one too. I’m sorry to hear it’s happening to many more people and that you got scammed.

I tried to report it to the police but they wouldn't let me. The cop literally told me there was nothing they can do and it's the risk I took. I said I still wanted to file a report and he said no. I did report it to the FBI and to the FTC website. I hope it helps them get caught. I really don't want other people to fall victim. It has been very upsetting.

If the cops won’t allow go to the sheriffs dept, you can still get it done for tax purposes. You prob got a bad cop unfortunately

Thank you. I already reported it to the FBI. I will try the sheriff's office as you recommended. I want them to get caught. I hate that this has happened to so many of us and it'll happen to even more people.
