Lots of these crypto/forex/investment scams lately.
It all boils down to:
- give me money to "invest"
- money is taken, with no intent on investing it
There is a good investigation here:
There is zero chance of recovering any money. And any additional "tax" payments will also not be recoverable.
By now probably zero yeah, if you are really fast though, wire transfer can be reversed in rare situations. If any payments were via credit card, those could be chargebacked in some cases as well.
Usually these places string you along so you don't immediately try to get a refund, get transfers through third parties, or ask for payments in crypto.
