Liquidity Mining Scam starlink-defi-mining.net Extorts $17,000 From Trust Wallet User

I invested through a website named starlink-defi-mining.net via Trust Wallet, enticed by promises of daily returns under the guise of ETH liquidity mining. Between June 2, 2026, and July 1, 2026, I transferred a total of $17,000 to this platform. Although it initially appeared as though I was earning profits, they subsequently seized all the money in my account, and I was completely unable to make any withdrawals.

When I requested that the funds in my account be transferred back to my Trust Wallet, my request was refused. Furthermore, they attempted to extort more money from me by claiming that I needed to deposit an additional $14,000 to unblock my account. In short, they refused to return my initial $17,000 investment and continued their scam by demanding further payments.

I wish to state that I have been victimized by this website, I am unable to retrieve my invested funds, and I am still facing pressure to make additional payments. I demand a full refund of my money and request that this complaint be given full attention to warn others against falling victim to similar scams.
