Topic: I JUST GOT SCAMMED BY CASHTOCRYPTO !!!!!!!!! (Read 623 times)

"Beverly" had placed an order on our website cashtocrypto.com to buy bitcoin. After we noticed Beverly was 72 years old and was buying $5,000 worth of bitcoin for her first transaction, we immediately considered this transaction to be suspicious. We have dealt with "man in the middle scams" (MIMS) in the past and are familiar with how these scams work. The scammer places an order to buy bitcoin, while instructing an elderly person to go make a deposit into the bank account that accepts cash deposits for bitcoin. The elderly person believes they are making a purchase for something else such as a car, to pay lottery taxes, etc. Then the scammer gets the proof of payment from the depositor and sends it to the bitcoin company. The bitcoin company is able to confirm the payment and then sends the bitcoin.

In this scenario after Beverly was notified of the issue we were having with her order, we received a call from someone with a foreign accent, who could not even verify Beverly`s date of birth and could barely speak English. You would think Beverly would be able to know her own date of birth right?

This scammer conned Beverly from Wyoming into making a deposit to one of our accounts. We spoke to Beverly on the phone, who said she was speaking to someone overseas who instructed her to make the deposit to our account. This person, who is the scammer in this scenario originally contacted Beverly through facebook. Beverly stated to us that she had never met this person or and has never spoken on the phone to him. They have only been communicating over text. Beverly believes that she is supposed to receive a physical coin called a Libertyx pin in the mail shipped to her address, and she has no idea why.

Long story short Beverly got catfished and lost $5,000. We are working to refund her as we speak.
