This scam utilizes a fake trading platform; a fake crypto-currency; fake people faking you out of honest money. The first contact is through social media, in my case Instagram but could be Facebook, or elsewhere. The scam is carefully managed to win your trust; make it appear that your contact does not need the money and is successful in her own right and only wants to help you get wealthy beyond what is normally possible. She will confine communication to whats app chat texts and recorded message - her voice is well spoken with a strange non-native accent; not English, nor Chinese, with some American but trying to sound high-class. She will show you her account balance which has increased from 300,000 to over $3 million in just a few weeks. Your FOMO (fear of missing out) can be very strong. Also it is hard not to trust this pretty, innocent looking Chinese girl who seems to like you, and would like to meet you after COVID. This is an out and out scam and I would love to see them punished and out of business. I have some ID card which I think is genuine and an address in Beijing. I will release this information to Beijing police if I don't get my money back.
