If you don't want to share them here that's up to you, but any LE report you make will need them.
What country are you in?
Edit: OP has decided to open another thread with some gory details.....

I invested with a person named Jerry. He promised me that he will make 11k with $1000investement. I deposited him 1000 through paypal. Then after few days he said i have to pay for the insurancr, which he didnt tell me beforehand. Without insurance he couldnt do the furthur trading, so i had to deposit insurance of $1750 in form of bitcoins.
He gave me the link of his linkedin , but i am not sure if thats his real profile. https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-wagner-1547362b/
Fake.
You are trying our patience, either give up some concrete information about the contact, the payment method and anything else relevant or
cease wasting our time.

Its a fake linkedin profile like every single FB profile that is promoting the blockchain mining scam. I even do not understand how people can fall for this scam. its so obvious they are scamming. I read a couple on facebook. they claim to return you 0.5BTC for only a 0.05 investment within 48 hours. If their mining rigs perform this crazy well I must get myself a couple as well cause the miners I have running now hardly give me any profit.

It's awful (((( But why not write here a link to the site to save others?! Currently, there are a lot of fraudulent sites that promise a high return on investment.
It may be worth looking for cyberpolice in the victim's country and at least filing a fraud report. You may be able to help with criminal investigations and finding the perpetrators, as the information about the fraud may not be the only one.
In order to make a fraud (theft) report, you will need to take all the screenshots of your communication with the scammers and the address of the wallet where you sent the money, as well as all the contacts, emails and phone numbers that you used to communicate with the scammers.

OP doesn't reply the thread, and I think he is desperate for thinking his money.
Yes, most probably coz base on the message I received, he was scammed with the blockchain.com wallet scheme with more or less 1 btc, I'll quote the PM of OP. Hello sir, you have replied to my post. Actually the name of company, being told by miners, is Blockchain mining network, Company registration number- B190078 duly registered under the laws of the sovereign state of Luxembourg.
Address- L-2340 Luxembourg, 1, rue Philippe II.
They dont have any website. The miner made a blockchain account for me, and asked me to change the password which i changed it. He then asked me to send 1 btc which i sent but this btc disappeared immidiately. Then he said i shud send more btc in order to access the previuous fund. I had been talking to this person since almost one month. He has assured me that all good, and they are not scamming, and my funds are not lost, just i need to have a minmum stake of pool in the mining network to have access to the funds. Had they been scamming me, they cud have run away with my money but they are still constantly replying to my messages. And this person has also shared his linkedin profile to me. I am still skeptical, whether i shud send more funds or not.

I replied to him/her but never respond and suggest what he/she must do next time to stay away from such offer coz it's an obvious scam. I wonder if still, how many newbies will fall on such scam.
OP doesn't reply the thread, and I think he is desperate for thinking his money. It's an important lesson for him not to risk the money which he doesn't know if it can give us profit or not. But I still thinking about this "I sent in funds to miners but they said I have to send them more funds" because why he send the money to the miners unless it's a cloud mining site which he wants to buy hashrate to mining.
I don't recommend to use cloud mining site for mining crypto because it's not worth, we are only waste our time to expecting for a big profit. It's better to use the other way which we have a chance to make a profit.

hello peers. I am in great trouble, i am looking out for some help as i think i have been scammed by miners.
I sent in funds to miners but they said i have to send them more funds ( in form of bitcoins ) to recover the prvious funds. I want to ask if this is legit or just a scam? is it so happens that we cannot access the previous deposited funds untill we need to have a minimum pool of stake in mining network?
What miners? Can you post the website link here? I sent in funds to miners but they said i have to send them more funds ( in form of bitcoins ) to recover the prvious funds. I want to ask if this is legit or just a scam? is it so happens that we cannot access the previous deposited funds untill we need to have a minimum pool of stake in mining network?
Does someone (individual) approach you for this to send your funds to these miners? Or it's just a website which offers mining power.
If it's a cloud mining site that offers huge rate in a short time, most probably you can't do anything to get it back unless you file a lawsuit to the company/organization which I think is not easy to do since most of them hide their identity, office address, etc.
But if it's someone from some social media sites then 100% you have been scammed, and same thing above it's impossible to get your funds back.

There are a lot of crooks now! You can't transfer money without a very strong check of these resources. You should read all the conditions, check the reviews of the service where you want to invest money and if there is even a drop of doubt, then do not make investments! I'm sorry about what happened to you (( I sent in funds to miners but they said i have to send them more funds ( in form of bitcoins ) to recover the prvious funds.

everything you said is very vague, you should post more information, such as:
- What website did you use? post the link from this site here in this thread.
- post evidence that you have sent these funds
About This:
do not send more funds, post what I told you so that it is possible to tell you if they are honest or scammers
