On November 30th, 2019 at 5:14 pm, I received a message from Jude Anderson (jude_trades) via Instagram. He introduced himself as a Forex Trader and an account manager who trades on behalf of his investors to make better profit returns in the forex market. He promised a weekly profit of $2,550 with an investment of $300, including extra bonuses. He stated his commission is 10% of whatever the profit is.
He claimed to work with "the most profitable brokerage platform (webfxtraders). He stated that he's been trading for 4-5 yearsand proud to sayhe hasn't lost a client's money for over 4 years now.
I stupidly agreed and I invested $300 of bitcoins form Coinbase into webfxtraders and gave Jude the opportunity of turning my investment into a profit. After one day, I saw a profit of $2,000. The second day yielded a profit of $5,500. I was pleased.
When I asked him about possibly withdrawing my profit, he then tells me I have to pay a brokers maintenance fee in order to continue trading and enable a successful withdrawl. I let him know that that information was never shared with me.
He asked me if I received an email from the company, which I replied I only received a welcome aboard email. All of a suuden, I receive an email from the company stating that I have to pay a brokers maintenance fee of $1,500. I said they both can take their fees from the profits and he can transfer the difference to my coinbase account.
All of a sudden, he tells me that I have to pay that fee (not from my profits) in order to retrieve my funds. This "disclaimer" was not detailed to me, nor is it stated on there website. Now, he won't anser my calls or texts.
Twice, I attempted to withdraw my profits and got a response stating that my withdrawl request was successfully submitted. I will be contacted soon. hat hasn't happened. I believe this was a site created by Jude Anderson to trick others into trusting him with their investments, only to keep it for himself.

The same scam company. I lost all my money and they restricted me from my account with huge funds in it. asknetrecovery.com helped me to recover all the money I had lost to this scam.

That sign above your head doesn't say genius....
First off when you want to go looking for "Investments" SPAM Messages on Social Media is the LAST place you should be looking.
This may be a shock to you but there never was any profits, it is all a scam. The $300 in Bitcoins was just the beginning, you were promised a weekly profit of $2500. After the first 2 days you were already up over $5,000. That's how they get you...GREED. Yes contrary to what you may think the only reason you did this was because you saw $$$ in your eyes.
But the profits are fake. Had you sent them the $1500, you still would not have seen a single penny. There would have been another fee you would have had to pay...after they announce your profit is up over $10,000. They would keep this going for as long as you were gullible enough to continue to send them money.
The other part of this is that you are not dealing with who you think. Everything they gave you is fake. The website you listed was created less than 2 weeks ago, and it was likely paid for with stolen or funds gained through fraudulent means. Where within a few weeks it will be shut down.
The same goes for the phone number. That is likely a "burner" cell phone again paid for with stolen funds that will be shut down within a week. The address they gave you (an apartment btw), is also someone who is likely not related to this scam. Oh and the chances of them actually being in the US is about zero.
