DFPI — Victim narrative (California)
The victim received a notification on Instagram that “Rembrandt Flores” was requesting to follow her. She thought the request was from somebody she knew. Rembrandt sent her a message saying hi and asking to talk about her day. At some point, Rembrandt asked to move the conversation over to WhatsApp, and there, mentioned cryptocurrency trading, telling the victim he could show her how to invest. He directed her to a website, bitstackoption.com. The victim told Rembrandt she didn’t know anything about cryptocurrency, so he directed her to the crypto.com app, and showed her how to open a wallet.
