I would like to report a crypto currency scam that I was a target off like many others. The scammer is currently scamming many others at this time and will continue to do so until action is taken against him. Once I had invested with him, I read on other websites that they had been scammed by him too, I was surprised as to why his website and company is still functioning.

I had come across reviews of people praising him and had given his number online, I whatsapped him and he claimed to live in California and his name was "Steve". He asked me to buy bitcoins and will "help me" trade them to make a profit. He was asking for screenshots of every step and once I had purchased the bitcoins he asked me to send them to him. I told him clearly that I did not want to send them to him as I wanted to learn to trade them myself.

He then contacted me again telling me I will waste my bitcoins and that I should invest them with him, he said he will send me a link where I can register and monitor my profits daily. He said I could withdraw my funds from that website (www.vitalitytradings.com).


Instead of investing all my bitcoins, I sent him 300 USD worth of bitcoins, I was going to see how his trading would go and then I would invest further. He then sent me a link for the website where I could see him daily putting in funds as my profit but a week later when I went to make a withdrawal, it would not allow me to do so. When I enquired from Steve, he said the company should email me, he then stopped replying to me and blocked me.

After my research I found out that the website belonged to this person who refers to himself as Steve and the customer service number is actually his number. He scams people by asking them to invest bitcoins with him and to monitor profit on his website, only to then block you and scams you out of your bitcoins. He contacts people with different names each time.
