Seen him in years, but he wouldn’t set me up like this – no way. I messaged “Laine Jane” and told her I was interested in knowing more. She explained that I would need to buy Bitcoin through CoinSpot. She said within a day, I would see huge profits through her “coaching”. She instructed me to download CoinSpot, an Australian bitcoin app, and told me to take a screenshot of my profile page once complete. It did not have any of my personal details at that stage. She then showed me how to buy the Bitcoin and told me to send it to a specific address code.I asked her if she is going to take my money and she said she would, then she'd send it on to her broker who would invest in my account.I was advised to set up my profile on their broker account.In the meantime, I got a call from CoinSpot asking me if I wanted to approve the transaction. I told “Laine Jane” they had called me and she said: “Just tell them you are sending it to a friend because it can get complicated with a broker.”I hesitated and told them it was for a broker... a gift for a friend who is going to a broker. They approved the funds.Alarm bells started to ring. I messaged my school friend again, asking if it was a scam and if she was going to take my money. He insisted that no, she would invest my money with a broker.I spoke with my husband and we both agreed it felt okay due to the “credibility of her profile” and how legitimate the broker website looked. Plus, the scam had my friend’s backing – it was the perfect storm. Never did I think for a second that my friend’s account had been hacked by someone involved in this cyber scam as well. He had posted not long before that, so it seemed unlikely that he was involved.Within an hour, my account showed up with $38,000.Straight away I thought it was too fast, too good to be true. I tried withdrawing the funds through my direct debit account but it wouldn't work so I messaged “Laine Jane” and asked her what was going on.She told me to start by withdrawing $10,000, then to refresh my page. After I did that, I got a message asking me to pay another $1,000 as the fee to the broker.That’s when I knew, I had been f**ked over. When I messaged "Laine Jane" to confront her, she blocked me.I reported her account on Instagram, but does Instagram shut these people down? No. There are too many of them to police. There’s no
