I could be wrong. But this more likely a scam. Have your investment passed the maturity? This is like cryptocurrency mining investment. There should be a contract and the maturity date should be indicated there. If you think your investment reached the maturity and the fund is still pending. You can't do anything about that. You have been scammed. You can report them here tho. If they have accounts here. Just report here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

Better start trading on your own. There's a lot of tools out there which can provide you knowledge. Even the investment where you put your money at is legit one. There's no guarantee you are able to get good profit from that.

Hi, I am going to try to be short so go straight to the story:
Some woman contact me trough Instagram first time in September with some normal questions. Her profile says "Binary expert, bitcoin trader, forex trader" with the website link on the bio
Slowly her conversation was about investing in bitcoin and the returns that could give. This all take till like one week ago, where I decided to put 180$ on in. I put it thinking that they were lost but something in me(the stupid part of me) was saying yeah maybe might be good. I put it trough coinbase and then send it in bitcoin
Well in a couple of days the money grow exponentially of course. Then she started talking about reinvest the amount that was already there, so the inicial investment plus the profits. Then I realized that I had won a bonus. I asked her why and se said the company give that to some new investors, big investors,etc. Then I get more suspicious with that. Then she started saying that the best way to make more money was for me to reinvest periodically with my new money. So make new deposits. I kindly deny and said that I need to know if I can take the money out first and see how real this thing is to make any more deposits( I am not, just testing the waters). She said sure, when the trading period end you can raise the money(ended yesterday).

In the meanwhile I did some search:
She has profile in linkedin, but the picture in Instagram when searched in google images, goes to a famous blogger of clothes and food!! So fake profile in Instagram. But she still puts pictures of the real lady with husband and kids....
The webpage as a stock image and the chat no one answers, and the design is...not fancy...something is missing
I can 't find any info about the company, no scam reports or good things. In some website, there was a rating of 85% that is a legit website but like with 2 ratings...
The website was created in May, but in the website they say they exist since 2012...

So when the trading period ended I went to the website, put the address of coinbase wallet and just withdraw 10$, to see what happens. It went pending till not long time ago where I receive a email saying that "We noticed you requested for withdrawal today, unfortunately you did not follow our policy of withdrawal by withdrawing all your funds. You are not allowed to withdraw part and reinvest part. When the funds you reinvested reaches maturity, you can ask for withdrawal again.

The normal process of withdrawing and reinvesting is to withdraw all funds first (Capital plus profits). You can then make a new investment in the same package or a new package thereafter. "


And the thing is that she told me that once when i ask her, she said that I had to raise everything...

What is the catch here?
How I am more vulnerable, except for the money that I put that I already take as lost.
You think I can try to withdraw the money?

Thank you people
