I had made a post on Reddit a few months ago asking for investment advice, I am a complete beginner to most of this and, got some feedback on the post.

A comment said to reach out to him and we exchanged texts, he said to grab his discord. He told me about trust wallet and staking and how you can make decent money with crypto staking. He seemed cool and I was unaware and unsuspecting.

I opened up the wallet, everything seemed secure and legit with the app. I started staking my money and worked the whole summer and put most of my earnings into there, it was going well and I stupidly sent him some screenshots of my progress and kept him updated, he was friendly and gave me advice. There are some details I have left out probably but today, I was checking on my money it was looking good and my staking reward just arrived, it was 7:22, and at 7:23 I checked it and nothing was in the wallet. Transactions for all of my BTC , ETH, and SOL sent to some random address without me doing a thing.

Funny enough the guy said that his mom was in an accident today and I put the pieces together and figured out that I was scammed.

I don’t know why I am posting this probably for awareness, don’t be as stupid as me, I have no one to tell about this so I’m posting it on here, I’m absolutely gutted and I worked this whole summer for nothing, at least I know now to stay away from shit like this.

Thanks for reading
