I opened an account to learn more about Bitcoin. A deposit of $150 was made over a few weeks. Crypto purchases were made over the course of a few weeks or months. And my account balances were checked over the course of a few months. Then, I went a few months without checking on the account. When attempting to check it today (2/13/2026), my account was not found. In speaking with 2 phone representatives, they tell me that they are unable to verify that I ever even had an account. This $150 has been lost. I was unable to file a complaint with this company because the system told me I needed a reference number, and this number was not provided when speaking with the representatives. It's all very strange that they could not even verify my account with a social security number which I provided when opening the account. @media (min-width:768px){.css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-positive:0;flex-grow:0;-webkit-flex-basis:auto;-ms-flex-preferred-size:auto;flex-basis:auto;width:calc(100% [BBB Scam Type: Investment] [Business: Coinbase.

For the past year I have traded on what I believed was a legitimate trading platform SGPMX on my mobile phone using their app by a Tina Davis and her aunt!! I have invested over 2 million US dollars for trading. When attempting to remove my funds I have been continually assessed fees to meet their requirement(s) for fund removal and transfer.!! The last attempt to move my funds from SGPMX to MetaMask under the guidance of SGMPX customer support and control is when I became extremely suspicious. When attempting to transfer my funds from SGPMX to Metamask to Coinbase for transfer to my bank account Coinbase reported funds were never transferred/received from MetaMask, In checking with MetaMask, they stated the funds cannot be traced because the network address provided by SGPMX for transfer was fake and the amount viewed in MetaMask is now fake. When I viewed my balance on the SGPMX mobile app it shows a balance of 0. I have asked SGPMX customer support "If these SGPMX funds are/were legitimate, where did the funds go and where are they now"? I have asked SGPMX customer support several times what happened to my funds, their response is "if I pay the Advanced Verification Fee my funds can be accessed and then transferred successfully". !!!! I have nothing to view which shows my balance and where my funds are. I have saved photos and text of SGPMX customer support as well as the SGPMX escalation manager. BEWARE of this scam,,they make it appear very legitimate. [BBB Scam Type: Investment] [Business: SGPMX] [Location: FL, USA- 32967]

Slow romance to gain my confidence. Eventually led to a scam involving her company Mitsuis AI training program. She went by the name of Abelard Charlisle. She then gave her name as Natsuko. The trading required us to use real personal funds in a coinbase account created by her company Mitsui. We never had access to it. Which should have been a red flag.Each step required more money to be put into the training account. Once we had put in thousands the last transaction just made our money disappear.A real thought out scam that required the scammer investing her time to gain my confidence and believe she really liked and cared about me. She even tried to get more money by insisting she could get my money back if I would just give 5,000.00 more into the AI training program. She also had accomplices posing as investors in bitcoin that required us to keep on investing our money into bitcoin transactions. I’m positive that I am but one of many that this Mitsui company scams . They seem to have a legitimate front for their shady transactions, Please report or do something so that they do not scam others like she and her company scammed me. .css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-positive:0;flex-grow:0;-webkit-flex-basis:auto;-ms-flex-preferred-size:auto;flex-basis:auto;width:calc(100% * 12 / var(--Grid-parent-columns) - (var(--Grid-parent-co [BBB Scam Type: Romance] [Business: Mitsui Corp] [Location: NC, USA- 28602]

Through Tik Tok, a creator reached out for affiliate marketing. They had me create an account through affiliatemetalite.com. They had me wire money to Coinbase and then had me transfer it to them (unknowingly) via crypto currency. Each time they were having me transfer they made it seem like these funds were going into the affiliate meta lite account and that the funds were growing rapidly by doing simple tasks like taking photos of a near by park, or the sky, or my clean dishes etc. the funds in Coinbase were actually being transferred to them via Coinbase accounts, not to affiliate meta lite.

I received a text from Eleanor Lee. While we were talking. She told me about a site called BTCC.US. In which she told me she can help me make some money. By investing in crypto futures. During the time we were talking. She would tell me when to invest my funds and sell them to make a profit. Emily Lee would have me use Coinbase, and Imtoken to transfer Ethereum to BTCC. When it was time to withdraw my funds, I started to have problems with BTCC. BTCC stated I had to send them all these different penalty fees to withdraw my funds. When I contacted BTCC.US, BTCC.US told me they had no record of me, and the recipient addresses were not on their platform. Also, In November 2025 Eleanor Lee stated that she would help me. Recover my funds, but she disappeared with a trace. @media (min-width:768px){.css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-positive:0;flex-grow:0;-webkit-flex-basis:auto;-ms-flex-preferred-size:auto;flex-basis:auto;width:calc(100% * 6 / var(--Grid-parent-columns) - (var(--Grid-parent-columns) [BBB Scam Type: CryptoCurrency] [Business: Unknown] [Location: MI, USA- 48126]

I joined the GES Community on WhatsApp for stock analysis insight. The head of the community is Richard Schmidt which they are probably using his name, image and likeness without him knowing. I was asked to join a test group where the initial investment was $500. I told the administrator I didn’t want to test with $500 and I was joining for investment insight. She, Elena Andrews, the administrator said they would provide the $500 and I could keep the profits. I signed up and started with their futures contract trading. I returned their $500 and withdrew approximately $700 in profits. I did some trading on my own and lost the remaining profit. Elena encouraged me to deposit $5000 and I said I could do $500. I did and made $170 in profit. I withdrew $170 but when I copied and pasted my Coinbase wallet address, there was one digit replaced and it went to a hacker. I changed the wallet address and tried to withdraw $200 and it failed. The CWBT Pro app which Elena told me to download from the App Store stated, because I changed my wallet address I needed to wait 72 hours. I waited 72 hours and tried to withdraw the $507 I had left and it stated again that I had to wait 72 hours due to a wallet address change. I only changed my wallet address once. My money is frozen. They’re all bots. .css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-po [BBB Scam Type: Investment] [Business: GES Community] [Location: AZ, USA- 86301]
