I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos about Cryptocurrency trading.
I especially enjoy watching one YouTuber, Eddie Moon. I Googled him and read about him.
"is an American YouTube channel with over 292.00K subscribers. It started 9 years ago and has 196 uploaded videos."In any case, he has a Patreon, which I joined. He also offers one on one mentoring.
He suggested I open an account at Webulltradingbot.com because that's where he does her trading. So I did. I deposited $10,000.00
However, there is another site called Webull at webull.com. I felt confused and I wrote Webull.com an email asking about the website, webulltradingbot.com. This is their reply:
"Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Our official website is https://www.webull.com/. webulltradingbot.com is not our official website.
We advise you to contact law enforcement if you have been taken advantage of by this fake website.

Together, we can keep your account and your information safe."I googled webulltradingbot.com reviews but nothing comes up.
I contacted him and told him about this. He said it is a legitimate site and has been trading on it for years.
Am I being scammed by a prominent YouTuber?
