Description

I was contacted on WhatsApp by a person calling themselves Annie Corbin, claiming to represent a company called “Nexxen.” They walked me through setting up a “training account” and showed me fake balances, such as a $1,000 training deposit, $82.55 earnings, and promises of $200 salary + commission. When I tried to withdraw, they said I needed to add $18 of my own money first to “reset” or “unlock” my account. They pressured me repeatedly, saying it was just the cost of lunch, and showed fake screenshots of other “members” who supposedly got paid after adding $19. They instructed me to use Venmo at first, then that stopped working, so then they got me to use Coinbase to purchase cryptocurrency and send it to a wallet address they would provide. Once crypto is transferred, it is irreversible. Evidence I can Provide: Multiple screenshots of WhatsApp chats with Annie Corbin Screenshots of fake Nexxen dashboard with false balances Links shared by scammer, I would then start a task, by submitting and clicking on items. Every so often I would encounter a bundle product where I would need to deposit USD that would equal to the negative balance in order to clear the balance. Which would unlock account, at first it was small amounts, $19, then $81.52, then 335.70, $1055 and the last one was 5376.01. I was stupid and did pay most of these except for 5,076.01 because I could not come up with this money. Annie acted as a good human, asking me about how my day was and always being positive about life.
