View submission: BEWARE of cryto scammers lurking here
I'm sorry this happened to you, OP. Good on you for going public and warning others. It's not easy to acknowledge being scammed.
Just a reminder for everyone: the whole point of crypto is that it doesn't run through intermediaries like banks.
If you get defrauded and lose money through a bank or credit transaction, *sometimes* they can get your money back. Not often, but sometimes. And occasionally at the least, if there's a pattern of transactions, this can help law enforcement find them eventually. Again, while it's very rare, it can happen.
But somebody scams you out of crypto? It's gone, man. Game over. Good luck taking your fraud complaint to Satoshi Nakamoto.
There's nothing here!
