Im in the same boat as you mate fmldoes anyone know if we can claim this on a tax asset loss or something that may help us recover any money ? Cheers
It’s the worst feeling knowing your hard earned money was stolen. If I lost it trading it wouldn’t be as bad , but the fact I never had a chance, and was being played is the worstPretty sure im 17k aud stuck in their fake site

keep at it, I was subtly saying im going to withdraw my inital amount i put in (just get my money back, no more, dont want to push my luck) then put even more in at a later date. But if she says "one more" or trys to entice you, dont do it.Im still in contact with the girl too trying to see if she will let me withdrawl i doubt it but its w.e
Wow, very similar guys. I received a whatsapp message about a month ago and the profile pic was a pretty girl...UK registered mobile number ending with 969..started conversation with general things and how accidentally she got my number and thought i was somebody else..blah blah and slowing asking me if i invest and she can teach me. She has been insisting me to learn investing from her and we can catch up when the pandemic is over etc etc. I agreed, opened MT4 account, registered etc and only yesterday she wanted me to start by investing USD5000...that made me super suspicious...she said if i can start with USD5000, i can make upto 10,000 profit a week..what a load of crap...i googled and found it is a scam..took a photo of it and sent her..i was still polite though....now she is still asking me to start with a small deposit. I am reporting it to Police as we speak

Yeah good idea! ill do that too, let us know how you goSo far reported them to the australian cyper crimes division :/ would suggest you all do the same and attempt to charge back through your bank or broker / whatever platform you are using
Very unfortunate, they are very cunning and lure you in with pictures and small chat then they scam you. I haven’t told anyone except on this thread.
I wouldn’t worry about owing them money. Once we deposited our money to bervey, it was already gone. We were trading with play money.
