A sickening feeling of dread hit me
A sickening feeling of dread hit me. I met someone on a language exchange app who promised to teach me flash loan trading. The scammer even sent me 1.25 BNB with which I registered and deposited into this website, showed me how to trade, and I made some profit and even withdrew 2.34 BNB. The scammer then advised that I invest more so I can get greater rewards. So I took out a personal loan for $394,925 and deposited it, followed all the instructions and was able to take my balance to $917,286. I was so excited, so I decided to withdraw $704,555, but was told the amount is too large, I would need to pay a 15% tax clearance ($105,683). I quickly took another loan and paid it since I was sure withdrawal was possible because I had withdrawn in the past. Then they demanded another 18% wallet verification fee, which was when it dawned on me that it was a con. I explained to my credit provider, and he referred me to a crypto asset recovery team (fiscop advisor), who started tracing the movements of the BNB until it was sold on KuCoin. The scammers' bank info was obtained, and he was caught, and the BNB reversed.
