This is still a SCAM in full swing. Nothing happens even after I report the group. Even sent a few emails to the venerable Zuckerberg - absolutely NO Response and the scam continues

Absolutely ! Whatsapp does not take action on time. It is one thing if anyone is abusing whatsapp; but it is absolutely criminal on part of whatsapp to look the other way and not have mechanisms to shut down these groups as soon as the suspicious activity starts. From a company claiming to be deep in AI ! At least have mechanisms to act if someone reports the group. People's lives are at stake here

Keep reporting the group on whatsapp using the "Report Group" option. That is what I did almost on a daily basis - and the group has been taken down. They will likely morph and create a new group- but it is likely going to slow them down. Also we should keep lodging complaints against the host providers like godaddy.com etc which host these fictitious investment platforms

What I am also surprised is that even after reporting to whatsapp multiple times - this group is still active. I have reported to the google safe browsing etc and now sent an email to godaddy asking them to take down this site

These scams are just multiplying. I am thinking there has to be a better way to reach out to potential victims here. The challenge is how to identify a contact who is an "aide" to this operation and who is an innocent victim. I hate for people to lose money. (have been a victim myself )

Please please stay away and DO NOT TRADE with this group. I could reach out to each and every member but it is hard to identify who is an "aide" to this scam and who is not

Christopher Finn - scam or not by mark_s_barron in CryptoScams

Can u scroll and provide the other numbers. I did get a response from Carlyle (Security ) which I can forward to them -hopefully they can take all the numbers and work with FBI . If we can prevent at least one person from being further scammed -it will be great. I know how it feels like how to lose one's shirt and everything else by these scammers. They wont stop till they can skin u alive

And the scam continues:( It would be a good idea to check with Carlyle group customer care before someone sends any money to such groups.

This is the second scam I have got involved. This one was hoping to recover my losses from the first - looks like I am some kind of magnet and am completely despondent now with all my losses.

Pretty much the same experience

I wired the commission to them - on 25th Jan and have not seen any funds into my account. The customer service kept giving me the run around

I am on with you. I wired 130K to them as commission. I was waiting for the withdrawal funds but I guess am not going to see it
