I just wish I could get my money back
I have the same experience, I met a “trader” on Instagram, “she” told me that I could invest 50 dollars even if I couldn’t invest 200. So I paid, and send criptocurreny to an address “she” send me. They use a legal app called Bitcoin.com on Appstore. Then to make the transaction on my account with the money made “I had to pay once again 500 dollars “withdraw fee” I found that weird because I had to buy “crypto” again and send them. I ask I could send the money I just made. “She” said no.
Oh they use whatsapp, once we passed en whatsapp “her” instagram account vanished , I ask question about “her” and “she” made few minutes to respond perhaps to guide me for money It was is less of a second.
I’ve checked if the website is legal and it is , the email is look “normal”. But, all the is a trap be careful, I lost 557 dollars but 500 dollars are on the app and I don’t know how to take it back.

Type of a scam Phishing
Well I’m usually on Instagram browsing, and stumbled upon someone sending me a like. So there business was stocks and trades, small investments I was should how it worked but not trained to work it with bitcoins. So I was never told that I had to pay a withdrawal payment after trading. I invested $200 in bitcoins which vested into $6700, I was told to wait for next step the next day. In order for to receive the earnings I have to submit $1000 which I never had in the first place. So I invested another $310 in bitcoins which equals total $513 of my savings. Now this person is asking for another $500 to retain earnings and that’s where I’m at now. The same energy from the beginning is not that now.
