Damage amount : 19 ETH

1. 2023‎-‎06‎-‎07 ‎16‎:‎Around 14, I received a message from a Telegram user with the nickname こんに.

2. Receive a KakaoTalk ID from Telegram and add me as a friend using my ID around 20:44 on June 7, 2023 and contact me. (ID: Bunskc / KakaoTalk nickname: beuyn)

3. We built a friendship with KakaoTalk nickname beuyn by sharing various daily life stories, and taught him about coin investment, how to withdraw money from Upbit, Metamask, Korbit, etc., guidance on customer centers of overseas exchanges, and guidance on cpecrypto transactions.

4. At first I refused, but I was tempted to go ahead with it because it was profitable.

5. After using the domestic exchanges of Upbit and Korbit for 2 months, move to the CPE exchange via Metamask or Binance.

6. The perpetrator (beuyn) encouraged participation by saying there was a 1000000USDT event and instructed to participate in the event by contacting customer service.

7. The perpetrator (beuyn), with the support of an unknown person, is currently trying to force a loan and withdraw it after reaching 100,000 USDT.

8. When I tried to withdraw money, it continued to be delayed, so I contacted customer service (Telegram @CPEVIP).

9. Funds withdrawn by exchange advisors are subject to 20% personal income tax as determined by the FCA, personal income tax payments cannot be deducted from the funds in the account, additional personal income tax must be paid, and funds are withdrawn after the audit is approved. If you can, and you can contact me when the funds are ready, apply for a remittance address from FCA. If you don't pay personal income taxes, the funds you withdraw are held by your FSA. Evading and refusing to pay personal income tax is a very serious crime.

I received this response and later realized that I was being scammed because I was being asked for personal income tax again.

10. When I contacted my KakaoTalk nickname beuyn, it was natural to pay income tax and I was encouraged to deposit income tax.
