Obviously, you are an amateur.
1. You can get verified crypto law firms on your case
2. Get crypto forensic team trace where the coins were cashed out
3. Send court order to exchange where coins were cashed out through real identity of people who used those address.
4. You impound assets they bought with stolen coins /licit money, you put scums in jail, and investors get part of their investments back minus law firms
and company fees.
I wrote to the police in Singapore, as it is recommended by them. Looks like they have more problems with this type of ... scams... 
Hello Ricky I have problem like you with loccalbtcontract
Thank you jelenaFDB. I will try it.
mocacinno, sorry I won't post more URL.
Just one question, I was looking for my wallet address I created in that page. I found the transactions in Blockchain. com, and I saw all the transactions I have made . Does this mean that my digital wallet still exists? Is there a way to get my 0.44 bitcoins from there? I mean, I need to transfer those bitcoins to my Localbitcoins.com account.
Thank you for any answer.

You don't own the private keys for the addresses that were funded do you? The scammer owns them... So no, there is no way to get those funds back just by knowing which address was funded...
Sorry to be the barer of bad news, but that's just the way it is i'm afraid...
Either the scammer gives you your money back (wich is higly unlikely), or law enforcement catches him and forces him to refund his victims, or your money is gone... There is no other option i'm afraid.
Thank you jelenaFDB. I will try it.

Hi, I read your post, sorry you have been scammed, my company launched an interesting project for victims of crypto scam and fraud. Its a platform where you can report crypto scam for free.
What do you think about this link?

This one is what I am using to log in. It is an https and it requires a verification code sent to my email which I used to register.
I have found the contact of Monetary Authority of Singapore. Do you think they are aware of this issues?
Thank you.

Having an ssl certificate and having a 2FA procedure means nothing at all... I can slap certbot on any server and have a valid x3 certificate in minutes... SMS's can be bought in bulk and cost fractions of a cent, sometimes the sender doesn't even have to pass KYC.
Stop messing with dodgy sites, it allmost seems like you're trying to up this scam's pagerank or something...
You said they asked money for the sole purpose of unlocking money they owed you... That's a scam... step away and stop posting their links...

Thank you acroman08 for your suggestion. I will try to contact cybercrime department in Singapore.

Let's go back to work and recover the losses..
sorry to say this I doubt you'll get you money back. even if you pay the 10% you'll just get scammed again. also, the webserver is from Singapore(based on the link you provided above) you can try and contract their cybercrime department if they have one and ask what you can do about the issue.
Thank you for your reply, Coolcryptovator
I totally agree with you. I have been a fool .. made profits quite fast and it is not normal for anybody who is beginning.
I carried out a withdraw my first earnings (100 to 300) and could sell them in localbitcoins.com. I guess that was the first "trap". Of course, this time I am not going to trust them and send what they require. I told them to have the 0.1% of the benefits and this is a reply:
You are now frozen due to an abnormal account. So you can only follow the requirements in the email sent to you by the platform, and then you can re-use your account. Because the platform has already begun to review. You cannot use your account and funds now. You need to submit the information that the platform requires you to provide. And recharge and pay a 10% deposit to use your funds and account again
Thank you again.

I have a question, had you attempt to withdraw your funds when you earn profit the first time that you made $150 to $300? I am wondering how you made a new deposit of 0.3BTC without test the platform if it's working the right way. Also, I heard the first time about this website. How did you found this site? It's surprising as a beginner you multiply your capital within a short time. Wasn't it quite suspicious? Honestly, they are just scamming you with an easy method. Any legit site wouldn't ask for a 10% profit where they are holding the funds. Why not ask them to keep 10% from the balance and send back the remaining funds to you? If you send any funds to them just you are going to lose again. Don't trust them, whatever is gone, it's just forever. Bitcoin is irreversible, any organization wouldn't catch them very easily. You can say 0.01% chance to expose them. Don't use any worst exchange and seek for a reputed exchange. Remember, your greedy behavior is responsible for your loss if I am not wrong.
I appreciate that. I will let you know more about this if you need.

euhm, isn't that the site that scammed you by not releasing your funds unless you payed them 10% of your balance to "unlock" your own money?
In that case, you are not really trading, you are just being scammed... So no, it's not better to use with your mobile phone, it's better to remove all apps related to this site from your phone and step away... They scammed you, there is no reason to visit them ever again, unless it's to take a couple of screenshots/recordings to go to the police.
You don't need to verify their ip address, you need to save their ip, try to contact their hosting provider and DNS provider, go to the police to report you've been scammed and fill in the google safesearch forms... That's all... Don't log in to "trade", they're not going to pay you anyways (at least, that is if this was the site you were talking about, the one that forced you to deposit more money before they promised you'd be able to withdraw)

Well, you can go to your local law enforcement agency.... In most cases: the local police station.
This being said, most police officers won't even know what you're talking about, so the odds of actually getting your money back are slim to none.
But, if you don't open an official police report, you miss out on the tiny chance of getting your money back if they ever find the guys who did this... If there is no report, law enforcement will never know you were scammed... Don't get your hopes up tough!
You can help others by opening a proper scam accusation (following the scam accusation format that's been described in the sticky post in this subforum) and maybe report it to google safesearch aswell... That way you might help some other people, but it won't make you get your money back i'm afraid.
Consider it a very expensive lesson... Tough luck

I'm a bit confused
What's the relation of https://localbitcoins.com/ and https://localbtccontract.com/ ?
Do you invest in localbtccontract? Because the sites is unavailable to reached right now, it say "403 Forbidden"
If so, then sorry... you've got scammed

you have been scammed.
As a rule of thumb: if anybody asks you to pay them in order to receive money you're due, it's a scam. Think about: they owe YOU money, they're holding money that would legally belong to you... Why on earth would they ask you to send them more money in order to "unlock" funds you legally own if it wasn't to scam you?
Think about a FIAT equivalent: you're standing on the street and somebody you have never seen before asks to borrow $100, and promises to meet you in the same spot after 1 week to return your $100 and $10 intrest.
The next week, you're standing on the agreed upon spot, the guy appears but instead of giving you $110, he says: "i'm currently in possesion of $110 that belongs to you, but i don't trust you, so you'll have to give me another $20 and let me walk away... When I come back, i'll give you the $130"... Mind you: you've never seen this bloke before, you don't have his phone number, you have no way of tracking him down... Do you think many people would fork over another $20? Why would crypto be any different?
Hello,
First of all, I have been using localbitcoins.com which works really good for buying and selling Bitcoins
I am new in this kind of investment. I purchased 150 dollars of bitcoins in localbitcoins first and then put it in a wallet of a trading platform.
Then, it went well, I obtained almost 300 dollars of benefits after two-way transactions. Then, I thought it could be better, so I bought 0.3 bitcoins and took them to the trading platform. After almost 1 month, I earned up to 2 bitcoins. Once I withdraw the bitcoins and sent them to localbitcoins.com in order to sell them, the trading platform administrator sent me a message telling me that the transaction has been blocked because an unusual profits. Then, I have to send my documentation and 10% of profits to unlock the operation.
Which oponion do you have of this situation?
Appareantly, this platform seems to be good. But I don't know, I would like to ask you about your opinion based on experience.
