Bitcoin Miner scam
Abuser: Email, Twitter and Instagram. Not in order
Hi, I am looking at a possible scam. I invested $500 in a crypto miner named Stephen Jefferson Gibbss. He is only and primarily on instagram. He claims he is affiliated with blockchain.com the company. Even used their name on this contract I signed with him. He even took the money out of my account while questioning him about it. Before giving him permission. The deal was I invest $500 for 25% profit in 14 days. Paid in bitcoin. He is saying a rare error occurred and he over mined 1 bitcoin. He is saying I have to pay $1500 to him (went from $5700 to 2900 then really did me a favor by lowering it more. before he used "server coins" to cover half) in order to get 1 BTC. I have been trying to resolve with him that I already invested and he promised to payout on the original investment. How unfair this is. He said there is nothing he can do because of policy and protocol. I messaged CEO of blockchain.com and he says this is most likely a scam as well as other people in crypto. I confronted him on that and he didnt care that much and came back to how I am too skeptical. I see the 1 BTC in my account but it says replace by fee and non spendable. It is showing confirmed. I dont know what to do I would like a resolution but i need someone who is experienced to help either reverse or recover my bitcoin. More so look over transaction and address. Thank You
