A man who fell victim to a cryptocurrency scam has expressed disbelief that the scammer did not send back twice the amount of crypto he had initially invested.
The man, who asked to remain anonymous, says that he was convinced by the scammer to send a significant amount of his savings to the scammer in return for two times the amount back.
“I thought I hit the jackpot,” he said. “The guy seemed so convincing, and the promise of doubling my money was too good to pass up.”
However, after transferring his funds to the scammer’s wallet address, the man says that he waited for the promised return on investment but received nothing in return.
“I couldn’t believe it,” he said. “I gave this guy my life savings, and he didn’t send back twice the amount like he said he would. He didn’t even send back anything!”
The man’s story has gained traction on social media, with many users expressing sympathy for his plight. Others, however, have criticized the man for falling for such an obvious scam in the first place.
“Come on, what kind of an idiot falls for that?” said one user. “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”
Despite the criticism, the man remains adamant that the scammer should have sent back twice the amount of crypto he had invested.
“I don’t care what anyone says,” he said. “This guy promised me double my money, and he didn’t deliver. He should be ashamed of himself.”
