What happened::

Dec 2020, I was induced by someone thru online dating site coffee meets bagel and started investing in cryptocurrency in CoinPal exchange (https://coinpalex.site/), deposited 52100 dollars into various personal bank accounts opened in East west bank in CA provided by the scammer. Jan 2021, I tried to withdraw the funds, coinpalex.site asked for 24% security deposit to be paid up front in order to make sure my deposit source is safe and secure, after paying the so called security deposit in total 16000, scammer mentioned I need to wait in a line for the withdrawal to be procced, if I want to proceed fast I need to upgrade to VIP member and deposit another 24000. I did not deposit any more money and until now, I still have not gotten my money back, contacted customer service multiple times, they are not responding nor picking up the calls. I lost 68100 to this fake cryptocurrency trading platform. I also contacted Singapore Monetary Authority, they said CoinPal is completely unlicensed, unregulated scam exchange platform. The scammer I met online kept encouraging me to borrow money from the banks to make big profits, I took a couple loans from multiple banks, when it came to withdraw, they blocked me on what's app and disappeared, left me owing a lot of money to the banks.
They also did maintenance multiple times, and erased my trading records and the conversation history with customer service person.

Coinpal is a scam because also I found another website
https://www.goldencoreex.com has exactly the same contents as
https://coinpalex.site , and multiple users reported goldencoreex is a scam. If Coinpal has the same website contents as goldencoreex , and goldencore is a scam, both websites are owned by the same group of scammers
