If Your Funds Are Exposed
If you have funds with this platform, stop sending additional deposits immediately and do not pay any ‘release’, ‘tax’, or ‘verification’ fee requested to unlock a withdrawal – these are themselves part of the fraud. Preserve everything: transaction hashes, wallet addresses, deposit receipts, chat logs, and the account dashboard. The sooner the on-chain trail is documented, the more options remain.
