Need advice please, possible scam

[TrailerParkTed]

Via bank transfer . Yeah I wonder if there’s a way to get it back what do you think ?

How did you find Elite Trader? I wish you had asked the good people here before getting involved because they would have warned you. Anyways your money is long gone, hopefully 500 Euros is not much to you. Warn everybody you know about her scam!

Hi, I’m completely new to trading.my knowledge on it is almost nothing. But an opportunity arose when I found a sole trader on social media that for a small investment ,uses it to trade on Forex and returns you a larger amount. The initial investment was £500 i was fine with this , but now she’s saying there is a deposit release fee of £2100 which I need to transfer and then will receive the profits. Is this DRF a real thing? What do you think ? Any advice would be much appreciated thanks.

You are in London and the transfer was to a UK bank account?

Go to your bank and try with their help to block that bank account. Show them all you have.
In my country we have a banking commission. I am not familiar with the UK.
Just go to your bank and have a chat. It will cost you just the time, and you never know what they can do. With a complaint about bank fraud, the account can be blocked.

Yeah Tedmos I’m not blaming anyone or anything , less on learned. Yeah guys I don’t think I’ll get the money back from the bank as I willingly transferred the money knowing it was risky, she’s in the UK. Anyway thanks for all the help much appreciated !

You can't even know 100% that she is physically in the UK.

or that it's a shim or not - probably thinking with the wrong head when he sent her the money.

I wouldn't have send her money even if it was your money. That's a corollary from a statement of Jim Rogers. Jim Rogers was asked if he would buy a particular stock. He responded that he wouldn't buy that stock even with your money.

You are not seriously asking this question right? May I ask what job you work in that you easily piss away 500 quid for such garbage?

Contact your bank RIGHT NOW!!! Call your bank, go to your bank and try to stop the transfer!!! If you just made the $500 bank transfer, the bank might be able to hold it for you especially if you are situated in a different country from her. It takes a few days for money to be transferred from one country to another especially now that UK is no longer part of EU.

And don't do any more transfers to this woman!!! It's a scam.

Bottom Line: If somebody's making money trading, they won't be asking you to fork over money (not in the fashion that you described). It's only when they are not, they will ask you for your money because that IS how they make money.

The forex trades show GU @ 1.30__ and AU @ .71__. Those trades are from November. Likely grabbed the images from a trading site.

I didn't know that Mashallah was a women's name. And that she would call you "brother".
