"This place is a scam. Honestly they got me for $3,300 and honestly I'm still ashamed of myself for letting it happen. It happened through WhatsApp they tell you they are a bitcoin broker company and tell you their ratios and have you pay a few signal fees that were never mentioned when first chatted. Of course I was amused because of the profit that was showing on the website. This lady Debbie Mac or she so called. Sent me a photo of Georgia license and the front of a debit card to get me to believe her and it worked but I made the mistake of not saving the photos before they unsent them. So my money is just stuck on the website or whatever wallet I sent it to. I usually do my research on stuff like that but I was at work at the time and everything was going so smooth. Learned my lesson next time to slow it down."

"Anyone needs proof I got some screenshots of our chat messages and the website with my money on it" "It was Bitcoin not digibyte."

"This happened around October 2021 and they still trying to get more money from me. I'm still trying to get the money back. If anyone out there wants to feel charitable and send me some spare money would be great. I had sent them almost all my savings. I was saving for my own apartment. My CashApp is $Deeswagg20. Would be much appreciated."

"scammers. More education is needed for combating this."

"You sent them DGB? What is your DGB wallet address? The proof should be in the blockchain. I am confused why your in DGB subreddit with a cash app asking for help. You got scammed out of DGB ok I will donate one DGB like I do to the DGB foundation. I hate to see my fellow DGB comrades fall and will help with a small donation of DGB. If everyone in the community gives you one DGB that is 45,000 DGB. You lost cash that’s on you, no DGB donation. No one can make 79-88% per week guaranteed they have SCAM written all over them. I would contact the FBI in all seriousness they need to be shut down and they need to go to jail. Sorry you got scammed please do you due diligence the cryptocurrency underworld is ruthless the scammers want to take your coins they know getting them back is almost 99% impossible. I was surprised the FBI got the bitcoin back they paid the hackers from the colonial pipeline scam in the US. That is why all of these major scams use bitcoins and alt coins, please be more careful next time my friend"
