This fake company stole my money
Investment company BUCKSTACK TRADE, whose address is allegedly Creek Mill Way, Dartford DA1, England and
web address buckstacktrade.net, does not allow me to withdraw the money I invested and the profit I made. How the scam started: A certain M.B. from Hamburg contacted me via Telegram. She introduced herself as a doctor working at the Altona Children's Clinic in Hamburg and asked me if I was into crypto-currency investing. I said that I do not deal with investments and that I am not interested in it, but I did not block her, because she seemed normal and honest to me. We exchanged messages from time to time and after some time she asked me to invest in the mentioned company. I refused it, but she was persistent and said to start with 200 dollars, and she would add 300 to my account and I would see how my investment is growing, because the company has mining farms in 14 locations around the world and does not fall under the jurisdiction of any government. I agreed and when I invested the first money on the site, the dial increased hour by hour. She then said that I should switch to a bigger plan, because the income will be even higher, to which I agreed after much persuasion. Everything seemed fine, support was constantly available, until I requested a withdrawal of part of the investment in the amount of $20,000. Then all of a sudden there is no support and after 2 days they call and ask me to pay 800 dollars for gas, and when I paid they say that the money will be in my wallet in 24 hours at the latest. Unfortunately I didn't get the money and again the support was not available and when they called me they said I have to update my wallet which is pointless because they have my bitcoin address. When I asked what I have to update they said to enter the 12 security phrases of my wallet which they don't give it to anyone, because then they could take the money I already had. I thought a little and after that I entered those 12 phrases, because I didn't have bitcoin in my wallet, so they had nothing to steal from me, updated my wallet and got a confirmation that everything is fine. I waited again for 24 hours, but there was no payment. I contacted support again, who answered after 16 hours, and they said that I must have a minimum of $1000 in my wallet to be able to withdraw money, otherwise I risk losing the money in the blockchain. Then it was clear to me that it was a complete scam. After that, they removed my name from the home page of the site where there is a list of investors with the amount of money I wanted to withdraw and banned access to the account, which means they stole my money. Buckstack is a fake investment company and uses the registration number of a completely different company. Don't fall for their scam. I saved the pages and my data on the site, the night before they banned me and deleted the data. I also have e-mails from them confirming how much money I have with them.
