They will not disclose their real identity. Start by taking screen shots of all trades, communication, their website, etc. to document for your records. Then let us know what country you are from so we can advise where report this crime.

DO NOT pay any fees or taxes to get your money back as this is part of the scam to steal more money from you. Also DO NOT hire any recovery company's as those are also ran by scammers.
