Barclays Bank Name Used in Stock Trading Scam Targeting First-Time Investor

At the beginning of November, I started trading on the stock market for the first time. Four days ago I was told that I had made a profit of about $9,360 and that this amount had been deposited into my account. But I was informed that before I could withdraw the money, I had to first deposit $2,340. I was told this amount was “insurance money” and that it would be refunded later. They didn’t pressure me, but I was repeatedly called to make the deposit. I was called especially from the number 05495520001; I don’t know the owner of this number, the callers only introduced themselves as A***** A******* and T***** Ş*********** and said they were calling from Canada.

Previously, I had only deposited small amounts of money twice. No platform or app name was specified. I was asked to make the money transfer via IBAN, but because of my financial situation, I can’t deposit the $2,340. I have call records and messages, and I can provide them if necessary.

I want this issue of being victimized to be resolved and the necessary investigations made. And now I am indebted to banks.
