It started out with an innocent accidental text sent to me, after I responded we started to become friends over a period of time November - December 2025. Her name was ELENA if that was her real name. She convinced me to put the Telegram app on my phone she said she preferred communicating that way. We told each other our life stories; she started telling me she could help me improve my financial situation. She told me she lived comfortably and gained her fortune in Short Term Gold Investment. She said her AUNT from NY had worked on Wall Street with a group of analysts that told her when the market was good and when to sell and when to buy, they used this platform for trading on https://m.kitcopro.com. It was set up with Crypto exchange and I had a Coinbase Wallet linked to it. She told me to withdrawal all my 401k and invest in this gold investment. We did about 4 trades that night and it looked like I was going to be rich. See she told me I could join with a $200,000.00 principal then all your trades would be secure and guaranteed 200%. I come to find out that the money I profited were in a Kitco bank and the bank required an I.D. such as a driver's license and a 10% margin in order to get my money out. That is a whole other part of the scam to make money off of that margin.
