Description

I was approached on WhatsApp by someone pretending to be Crypto King from YouTube, claiming to help me get into cryptocurrency trading. I followed with some instructions he gave, purchasing a small amount of cryptocurrency, and transferred the amount to a site called Tradeslitepro.com. But now I can’t withdraw those funds, because Crypto King stated that I would need to “top up” with more money in order to withdraw, which is exactly the same language the fake customer service representative on that site claimed I needed to do. I knew right away that this was feeling like a scam, and now Crypto King from WhatsApp, and the fake rep from Tradeslitepro.com are pretty much evading communication, or replying with the same nonsense of depositing more money to my account, because trading on my account would be on hold and withdraw options wouldn’t be available! This is definitely a scam!
