Romance- Xryptor and Luxminer. Scammer contact me through Up. Scrolled social media app. Moved conversation to Telegram messaging app. Telegram app failed twice then moved to Zangi. Relationship lasted for two months in which time they convinced me that we were Romantically connected and convinced me that they were orphaned in childhood and was an adult who cared deeply about the plight of orphans. Then convinced me to donate money to their charity and also convince me to invest in a fraudulent bitcoin mining company. I finally got wise to the scam after losing approximately $7500 in total as well as selling off many of my personal belongings and purchasing a plane ticket to Spain in hopes of being with the perpetrator. Only after experiencing suspicious activity on the fraudulent bitcoin mining site did I begin questioning the authenticity of the website and the perpetrator. When I attempted to withdraw the invested bitcoin from the mining company it was sent to crypto wallet other than the wallet that it was intended to go to.
