All Thanks to Saclux Comptech Specialst for giving me a reason to smile again. I lost all my savings in the hands of a fake investment platform. In April 2020 I was scammed by Coincrypto Tech Bitcoin. I invested half a Million dollars and After 30 days I tried to withdraw on their website from the investment account but an error came up so I contacted the support team to ask what the problem was. They told me that I didn’t have the required amount to make a withdrawal yet and that I should add more Bitcoin to enable me to withdraw, So I put in more Bitcoin and tried withdrawal again, and the same thing came up error. I then started to tell them they were scammers but they kept saying they were legitimate companies. They even gave me 2 other customers that will verify their legitimate company. I emailed and asked them and they told me it’s all okay. I decided to keep making payments to them when they still didn’t refund I emailed back those 2 customers that they had working for before,
