Oh, not a good one.. To me i would say that there is no platform which one can possibly invest in so as for their money to be twice of what they invested by helping you trading with your money so as for it to double, its all a lie...A Trusted platform must be launched in a chain either the Binance Smart Chain or the Ethereum and lots more which such platforms has no chain holding them which makes it to be a scam.

Always learn to exclude business from relationship.
This is the basics of business. Business is a business.

always do background check before getting to invest on any business.

These are also part of basic things that we must do before doing business, investment and also other decsiion. At last, understand about what we are going to do moreover related to money before regreting. We must be professional in everything so that we can check the pros and cons of our activities moreover business. Moreover in the cyrpto world, where there are so many Ponzi scheme, scams, and also hackers, we must be mroe careful when going to put ur money into it. Cyrpto is sweet with big profits probabilities. But crypto also requires rsks that we must face and manage

Speaking of emotional attachment, I recall from what I had watched from some documentaries in Youtube about those scammers trying to manipulate elders. From my experience talking to some elders back when I was working in a call center, most of them were really kind hearted to the conversation. Now that I heard that there were some call centers operating a scam, it's sad that they're taking advantage of these elderlies.
On the brighter side, there are scam baiters that are trying to destroy these scammers though.
They've really gone that far.

That, they have to make a CC for them to operate their scam. This is really happening and saddening but that's how they live their life with it, through a scam.

IIRC, there's a video that I've watched that someone has caught them and that channel was dealing with those scammers and he's tracking them. The channel on YT was Jim Browning.

I was having a relationship with a lady who claim to be a Bitcoin broker analyst for a year, she told me much about crypto currency exchange and I got enlightened along the line she told me about a challenge in the crypto company and she wants to take the lead and she needed an investment of about $50,000.
well believing all she has said I did my best to invest and see her take the lead and I was to get 50% of my investment but at the end of my investment it was clear to me I was scammed and she kept requesting for more money.

That you believe because he was a lady or something special to you or the worse she promise huge returns that you can't decline the proposal. I beat you but yeah, we got sometimes fooled by money, even someone (not close to you) will talk like that, it certainly leads to say "YES I invest". I can't blame how you can't decline this as of course she was your lady and you trusted her but you got fooled by her look and put you in losing huge money.

I feel surprised how some persons give big trust to do business with people online that they haven't met before. How sure are you this person is a lady or a man in the real life ? Doing business with such person didn't you have a thought in your mind what if it eventually fail what will happen to money?  Going into things like this one have to ask self questions like this and try to make findings how genuine its. People really need to be careful online because now it is very hard to detect what is real and what is scam, scammers are so good to package their business to look so real.

Did you even meet the person? Because if you just meet him online then this is expected because no solely trader would ask money to random person if they are really good on this and they make it as full time career.

But if you meet this person in real life maybe you just blinded on your feelings and didn't even check if he is for real and didn't want to put you at huge risk. This is lesson to learn for although this is classic scam attempt but new people in crypto should be aware about your experiences.

Another one of those preety romance scam where lovers are the victims of these bitcoin or say fiat related scams.This is sad that you have been one of the victim but how can you trust someone who continuously aks you for money whom you have met online through some media platform?

If assumptions are made then you are also victim of one of those scams or so called honey trap in which any gender lures you into love trap and makes you believe in themselves but this is attempt to take out some personal information from you or the best part money for mostly.There is no gender as mentioned above in online world and this is highly risky market but if you are so careless to devote such huge amounts to the person you have not met personally and without any investigation then it's your fault.

Watch these videos which describes :

Quote
First one: The victim of a romance scam describes how she was duped out of $2 million by an online suitor she has never met.

Second one : Christine Beining, a special agent in the FBI's Houston Division, describes how scam artists use Internet sites to prey on lonely individuals to get to their money.

 

Source: Romance scams

You are not the only one who has been targeted but we need to understand that whom we have not met personally there is always a chance of suspicion but if they demand money from you then always be alert and try to investigate and be safe as much you can.Blaming later on won't help you and funds are lost without any recovery chance.You don't know who he/she is and this is online scams going on targeting the soft and lonely people.

Is this the usual online scam that you don't get to meet the person or it was just a physical kind of relationship? I am surprised what you were expecting when you lent $50k to a woman who you are emotional attracted to and she knew this and then you expected her to return it? If it was your wife in the first place, I wouldn't say it's bad move as whatever she invested in will likely come back within you guys but an ordinary relationship shows you are not smart with women.
It is possible that she didn't invest the money, she May have returned the half of what you lent her and manipulate you to give away the remaining one. Grin

It's in social media(Facebook, Instagram and telegram) that you going to find and see people living a fake life, giving fake promises and professing fake love. All of the online brokers I have met, do come up with one problem or the other, soliciting help from you. They always have a long and sad story to tell, telling how displaced and broke they are. Displaying a fake dp to entice you.
There is a way to scare them away. Keep asking them for video calls before you can adhere to their request
Social media is the best tool for scammers to Scam people, especially in telegram, and we all know that nowadays there are many scammers everywhere so we need to be careful. I've been experienced someone chatting me through telegram and then asking for help or they said that they are needing a business minded person invest in their company. But you should be smart and control your self do not trust easily to any person you meet from social media cause you don't know yet their personality or private information.

From the word she claim to be that means you don't fully know this person so I would guess it's an online dating. If so funny how uptill now you still see it as a relationship. It was all the plan, it could have virtually been a man on the other end. You should rather say don't send your funds on something you not sure scammers have different mode of operating just to get you to pay. Becarefull of online dating or even offline, you should know more about who ever you dating don't send anyone your crypto till you sure.

Unless I met someone and got know of them for almost a year, I wouldn't trust a single penny to them.
The same as me.

I wouldn't trust someone who I've just met on chat. Maybe meeting in personal will change my mind although I'm not into dating and meeting women anymore but this is a really known scam.

Should you entertain them and you're going to be emotionally attached to them. They're likely manipulating your feelings and that's why whatever they say is likely you're going to obey.

But with that amount, I have a doubt that you'll send that entire amount without meeting the person.

Yea, often I have been receiving DM on Telegram from wonderful women about cryptocurrency investment. They do not talk directly to invest. Their aim is first to introduce herself then slowly move to a relationship. Then she will ask if you are familiar with cryptocurrency. To be honest they targeted you from cryptocurrency communities like Telegram or any other similar platform. Eventually, a few greedy and emotional people fall into the trap. For me, once they ask whether I am familiar with cryptocurrency or not then I just block them. Because I am not gonna invest anyway, so don't want to waste my time there.


Anyway, thanks for sharing it with us. Other emotional users would take a lesson from here especially those who are weak for women.

Lol those "women" claiming to be a crypto broker in Facebook with a Married civil status are obviously just a scam and in fact those who vouches for those are just managed by one person obviously. I can't provide a screenshot since I did a mass report in Facebook and seemingly they are now slowly purging those fake accounts.
Who would even risk 50k to a random person in the internet anyway?

Unless I met someone and got know of them for almost a year, I wouldn't trust a single penny to them.

therefore it is very important for us to study well the crypto world and be more careful in doing everything if we don't want to have an impact on our assets. sometimes we follow our emotions too much which will only confuse the mind.

Surprisingly there are still people who are deceived, even though they give unreasonable advice. Many cases occur and harm new users. They (victims of fraud) like to have been exposed to the science of hypnosis so that their minds become unhealthy and willing to join to invest. If many people join this forum, of course, it will rarely be fooled because this forum has reviewed the mode of fraud mode, especially within the reach of crypto. Emotional control may not have a fatal effect, but thinking about being reality-healthy may make them more cautious.

Sorry, I still find it hard to believe OP's story. It's kind of an empty narrative to me and reeks of pity party all over it. I've gone through that post and no substance to show that OP was scammed of their money apart from the fact that they claimed to have sent someone cash. Just like that? Really? $50k isn't a paltry sum for anyone to part with, not even in the US. Except OP meant 50,000 in a different currency that isn't the US dollar. Even at that, the scam narrative is still questionable. That's my observation.

We can’t know if OP is honest or made up a story for some reason, but if you noticed my post you could see that such things really happen and that some people live for years in the belief that they are in a relationship with someone even though they have never seen that person. I think it's a very common type of scam, so-called beautiful girls (who can also be men) operate on social networks and look for lonely men who are then drawn into some kind of emotional relationship, and then offer them business opportunities.

The world is full of lonely people, who obviously have enough money to afford such adventures - these are expensive life lessons, but a good warning to others not to fall into the same trap.

Well, talking about emotional scam; we should understand that business isn't pleasure. Both shouldn't mix. Learn to separate them always.
Mpamaegbu I have to agree with you here. $50,000 is not a small amount OP must be filthy rich or madly in love to trust this woman with that kind of money. I too find it difficult to believe this story not because it is impossible but the way the story is narrated doesn't feel personal. The story portrayed is too vague. It could be a ruse to gain sentiment and merits.

There are many modes of sca in the crypto world and as crypto lovers we must be responsible with it carefully. Don't be easily tempted by the attractive withdrawals given because it's only to attract investors. I've seen many cases where people give some money and then hope to make a profit from it, and most of these modes are clearly fraudulent. therefore it is very important for us to study well the crypto world and be more careful in doing everything if we don't want to have an impact on our assets. sometimes we follow our emotions too much which will only confuse the mind.

Business remains a business and is not interfered with feelings. There are still rules that must be done.
If you are always fascinated by words about profits and promised to get a 50% profit from the inevitations that you do, then you need to be vigilant. 50% is a large amount. When you have been tricked like at this time, you must just realize. $ 50k money is a considerable amount, if you make an investment in Bitcoin or you buy gold, it will be better than having to depend on people who don't know full about the background.

You're lucky it only took you a year and only $50k to figure out what it was about because it took some 15 years and more than ten times as much money to figure it out. If you have some concrete evidence and you are not ashamed to go to the police, you may still have a chance to get your money back.

History is as old as the world. Women will always be to blame for everything. OP was seduced by a beautiful brunette or blonde who OP lost his mind and gave her all his money.
Not interested. Because it's not news anymore. On the Internet, people have no gender. We must understand this. The OP writes that he talked with her for a year, too long to not understand who is in front of you. A year of online chatting, without any promises, only shows that the OP is lonely and has problems in his personal life.
I would not trust my money even to a person I know personally, but to trust a stranger on the Internet, you need to have great talent.
Grow up OP. That's life!

It is very unfortunate that you were scammed in order to learn your lesson. But anyway, a lesson is a lesson no matter how costly it might be. Since you now have the experience of dealing with scammers who take advantage of such emotion, you now have the responsibility of at least letting others know on how such scam operates in this field.

Again, like other similar scams, any person, who is a stranger, that asks for a hefty sum of money for 'investment purposes' should always raise a red flag about their authenticity. If they keep on asking for more money without even providing any actual results or data, this should trigger and alert you that one might be actually a scam on your end.

Those are wise lessons to learn, but in the end, we are all human, and emotion is one of our primary triggers. So we can't really save ourselves from that. We can at least be aware of it and work with it in mind, not putting all of our eggs into one basket and moving slowly, and rationally as much as possible. And not to be hard on ourselves when things like this happen, because they will and all we can do is learn from it.

I don't know maybe you meet the girl online or offline, because anybody I meet online I don't trust them, I always believe anybody I meet online is a scammer so am alway cautious whenever am dealing with them, I don't care about the gender you are. I believe the idea of joining your relationship  with your money is a really bad idea. I always say it whenever it comes to cryptocurrency trading always make sure you have full control of your money never trust anybody with your money.

Romance/love scam. A very popular scam on the internet these days, I guess that "lady" have messaged you randomly and you got attracted because of that gesture made by the scammer. It's not only limited to the crypto market but it has mostly started on fiat scam. They'll just keep asking for money to you to be sent to them because they needed this and that. And you, falling in love, you're like a blind follower and hypnotized person that will just follow their instructions. @OP, does it mean that you've sent the scammer $50k for real? Honestly about your suggestion about business and relationship, many are okay with that setup and it's not a problem at all. It's just that you've been a victim of this love scam.

Learning something should have no limit to satisfaction. If you managed to escape today from the trap of scammers, maybe not tomorrow. Scammers will always change their methods if the case has been heavily exposed. I agree that this fraud case is based on greed rather than emotional factors in the relationship. When speaking of high nominals, with greed people can be carried away even though it is offered through meme images.

These type of stories are pretty common, and often pivot around meeting someone through social media, exchanging pics and engaging in conversations, and not too far down the road, leading to some kind of suggestion to invest in this or that, claiming that the investment will yield high returns.

If you take away the love side/ testosterone /emotional narrative, you will still clearly encounter scams based on plenty of other arguments, ranging from Nigerian Price verbose through to simply being directed to sites offering incredible enticing results.

It’s not a question simply of separating business from "love" (or any sort of close synonym with a higher or lower categorization), but being able to shell yourself from giving-in to trusting others cheaply.

You did not explain how she defrauded you, but talk to strangers on the Internet, especially those who ask for your money to invest.

 - There are two types of emotions that must be removed first related to your own feelings: fear of missing out and greed.
 - The second relates to your interactions with people, whether they are relatives or friends.

Both should be excluded because investing is based on an emotionless language of numbers.

I was having a relationship with a lady who claim to be a Bitcoin broker analyst for a year
Let me correct you by first askimg this question; have you seen the person before? If you have not seen the person before but just communicating online, this should be the right statement:

You can be in a relationship but the person only wanted to scam you, the person can even be a man but communicating to you as a girl. This type of scam is common, the scammer can request for either fiat or crypto to scam you. If you pay, the money is gone and he will request for more.

Well, i guess this was an online relationship, it is nothing unusual and fiat has been used to pepetrate this scam for a very long time, something very similar to the "princess scam". why would one even believe the story someone tells them over the internet, there has to be a level of interest in it for them, and by extension Greed, thus the end product is loss of funds.

I would not even relate this to emotion, it is sheer greed, the scammer would just basically try to create a relationship with you, but they are smart to know that is not enough, then they proceed to making you an offer, promises of you both making money together, and that is were people fall, how can you invest in a company you are not sure exists, just based on promises, that is way too easy to fall.

In my opinion the only lesson to learn here is: anything that is too good to be true, is a scam, and any offer for you to deposit some money to get a certain percentage later is a scam.

That’s a rule. Always separate personal feelings from business. Your story indicates you only talk to this person on the internet. The relationship wasn’t real, just another online dating scam. Never trust anyone you meet online they could be pretending to be someone they are not.

I was having a relationship with a lady who claim to be a Bitcoin broker analyst for a year, she told me much about crypto currency exchange and I got enlightened along the line she told me about a challenge in the crypto company and she wants to take the lead and she needed an investment of about $50,000.
well believing all she has said I did my best to invest and see her take the lead and I was to get 50% of my investment but at the end of my investment it was clear to me I was scammed and she kept requesting for more money.
