DFPI — Victim narrative (California)

A California resident was persuaded by a love interest they met online to download an app called FPMOTC. The love interest showed how lucrative this app was for making money. The victim took out a loan to purchase crypto assets and then transferred them to an account they opened on the FPMOTC app. But when the victim wanted to withdraw funds, they were told that the account was frozen. First, the app told the victim to deposit more money to confirm it was their account. After the victim did so, they were told to deposit even more money, otherwise a fee of 10% would be taken from their account

Estimated loss: $0
