This forum is to help people avoid being scammed by listing the details of the scammers, we cannot help you get back money you have lost. If you have already paid money to the scammers then it is almost certain that you won't get it back, but you should report the crime to your local police and also speak to your bank in case they can assist in stopping the transfer.

Anyone who contacts you saying they can get your money back or you are entitled to compensation for being scammed is just trying to scam you further.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
