Problem withdrawing assets from chineese trading platform

Sorry you lost money. Could be worse.

A not uncommon scam here is a woman will express interest in a guy on one of the dating apps. Next she will Facetime him where they have "virtual sex". What the guy does not realize is the woman is recording the session. Next, she demands payment or she will send the video to the guy's work and family. The reason I know about this as it was described as part of my company HR training. One of our employees fell for it, he paid the original ransom and then she wanted more....he refused and she sent the videos. Be careful out there gents!

a guy in the forum I often visited described same experience but he had not received ransom request at that time when he posted.

I was stupid enogh to lose my savings around 40000usd, as those scammers are exploiting me saying that if I do not deposit I will lose what I have already earned and threatening to take me to court, and this is what I did, I deposited ou of fear, even though the money I put in are all legally earned, so I shouldn't even have to worry about any investigation, they know how to exploit people. I thought I was clever than that, but obviously I am probably the dumbest person that will ever be born to Earth, and I am reaping the rewards that comes with that stupidity.

Yes you are pretty gullible, or taking the piss.

I have one advice for you: stop using the internet.

That is the major problem (or perhaps benefit) with digital, virtual things.

the scammer can be hiding anywhere in this world.
And no one knows.
He can be from China, Russia, the US, Nigeria, Canary Islands ...
Location doesn't matter as brick and mortar thing is out of fashion.


I am sure 90% of the scammers are not caught.
And 90% of the traders cannot make it.

So do you want to be a trader or scammer?

What is common between them is that both of them wants to earn
tons of money.

A trader for sure. Even though 90% of the scammers do not get caught but if you ever end up to be in the 10% (1 in 10 scammers. That's still a high probability), you will get the worst of the worst of the punishment. Whereas even though only 10% of the traders make it, when you do make it, you reap the highest of the highest of the rewards. Look at Roaring Kitty, 90% of the time he did not succeed, just this one chance, actually less than 10% of the chance that he did succeed, look how much money he made??

If you apply this mentality to trading, this is another proof of why you shouldn't aim to maximize the win/lose ratio but to maximize the profit/loss ratio.

Contact police if you didn't. It will do nothing for your case but reporting it is a prerequisite for accurate statistics on how much money disappear due to these scams, which in turn might lead to action somewhere.
