Trust Wallet Scam Alert: False Identity Verification

Trust Wallet Scam Alert: False Identity Verification
Trust Wallet Scam Alert: False Identity Verification
October 18, 2023 8:41 PM2,104

I fell victim to Trust Wallet, which claimed to be the "safest wallet in the world." They asked for identity verification and even requested documents. I obliged, only to find that after my investment firm sent $20,000, they demanded an additional $10,000 within 24 hours for account verification. They cited concerns about mining or money laundering as the reason for this demand. They promised that once the account was verified, it would be accessible. I contacted my investment firm, Tangent Capital, and they asked for another $5,000 for an extra day. We argued that if the purpose was account verification, $1,000, $10,000, or $10 wouldn't make a difference, and we didn't send the remaining $5,000. Now, they are unresponsive, and there's no way to reach them. They initially tried to intimidate me with Interpol threats and attempted to extract an additional $10,000. Currently, there's no communication. I implore anyone who has experienced a similar situation to share their information. After losing your funds, there's little recourse. Let's warn Trust Wallet users or those who are unaware of the dangers.
