email scammer trying to get me to pay $50 in bitcoin to receive a non-existent fund. It's linked to many other wallet address that are presumably used to launder money.

When I attempted to withdraw my funds, the platform restricted access and refused to process the withdrawal. I have attached a screenshot of the withdrawal attempt and the BTC address used.

Scam Alert: High-Risk Fraudulent Crypto Wallet – Protect Yourself


The scammers who owns this wallet manipulated me for months and scammed me over $150,000, pretending to be someone I could trust and using fear tactics to convince me to send more and more funds. They promised high returns and denied my several withdrawal request, and even impersonated well-known colleagues to gain my trust. By the time I realized what had happened, it was already too late but thankfully my husband guided me through the process of filing reports with the Financial Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) With their help, I gathered every piece of evidence and made my report filling the SEC Jotform (CHECK THE LINK ATTACHED TO FILE A REPORT) documented my case and took the necessary legal steps.

After weeks of uncertainty, I received the call that changed everything — my funds had been successfully tracked and recovered. The relief was overwhelming. I had my money back into my bank immediately.
