Someone (referred as scammer below) approached me on social network late May, 2021 and offered to teach me crypto investing. He introduced me to this crypto exchange called “coinx.ai” and asked me to transfer crypto coins there to make investments. He claimed that he had made steady investment gain on this exchange over the years and built a decent wealth from it (at least a few million dollars according to his statement) and offered to lend one bitcoin to me for free.

I took his suggestion and sent my Bitcoin and Ethereum and USDT to the crypto wallets belonging to this exchange under my account. Customer service facilitated the whole transfer process, informed about the lock-up interest and locked up my coins. _x000D_

Later I got suspicious and tried to unlock and withdraw my coins. The withdrawal request was being processed according to the UI but nothing happened after the withdrawal period expired. I talked to the customer service, which had been responsive during all previous inquiries and transactions, but they stopped responding and immediately blocked me from their service system. _x000D_

Tried a different computer and talked to the customer service again without logging in. As soon as I mentioned my account number, they blocked me again. The `scammer` also blocked me on social networks (both on `WhatsApp` and `Wechat`). _x000D_

I have all the screenshots to support my claims above. Since they. cannot be attached here, please find them in these google documents_x000D_
