how to get his wallet address?
ok here's my story.
this person contacted me on IG and started talking to me. Then he ask me for what's app. It is very similar to what you all have described. He says he's from Hunan and works in Xiamen. He has a winery in France, and parents live in America. He's Singapore citizen though, but grow up in China. Then he told me some sad story about how his wife pass away and he was depressed.
then he started with casual chit chat asking my hobbies. One of it he mentioned is cryptocurrencies. And how much he earn etc. After a few days he says there's good opportunity, and ask if I'm interested to learn.
That's when he sent me the link, which is an APK to download the bitmex App. Then we went through the account setup, which he keep asking me to send him screenshot. Then 1st ask me to top up money and do a small transaction.
The buy/sell is always very quick. And he ensure he teaches me how to buy and then sell. And then he also thought me how to withdraw money for testing. Obviously, I was conned to bank in the 2nd time, cause he says i should get ETH, but the amount I have is not enough for ETH. So i did a top up of RM10K.
Then today itself, i ask if there's any trading node, he says there is, but for him. it's too little for me. Then he try to coax me to bank in more, to buy BTC. So i got a bit suspicious, why previously was ETH, today it became BTC. Then he say BTC is better, target 1-2 BTC is good enough. So i ask him how much is 1 BTC, he said 45K. Then it is 45K USD, not RM!!!. I told him that's too big an amount. He said he has some spare cash 20K USD, he can loan to me first. I asked him, he's not afraid I runaway? He say if I runaway with this money, it proofs that this kind of person is not wife material.
Then I ask him when he need the money, he said next week. So I told him I will need time to transfer the money cause I'm in HKG and I don't have ready money in KL. I also have to make some adjustments of money transfer because the amount is big. He says OK. This is when I start to get suspicious, and then started to google for more info. I even went to bitmex.com website and try login, and realized that they need 2FA authentication, which is different from the scam bitmexcln website. So I quickly contacted bitmex.com customer support, sent them some screenshot to verify if the app I installed is correct.
Next, I did a whois.net on the domain URL that he shared, and found out that it was only registered on 27 Jan 2022!!! Dang!!!
I've quietly went into the bitmex account and try to withdraw the 2000USD out, which was my principal. It now show Freeze, lets see if I can get the money out tomorrow. If I can't get it, I'll cook up some story to him and ask him to try help me get it.
Meanwhile, I'm still talking to this lovely scammer and I told him I'm taking a flight to Xiamen to look for him, and ask him for his address. I work for airline, so getting a ticket is not difficult. He suddenly freaked out and ask me why. I created some story la, say I miss him bla bla...so let's see what he reply tomorrow. I will keep you guys posted!!!
BTW: He uses a french phone number. He writes alot instead of asking for photos/videos. Very sweet talker.
If you have any suggestion that I can play along with him, welcome to the party
. Please suggest, and we can continue to play.
