Lost my inheritance to a 'future partner' from a dating app, now my money is gone from a fake investment platform – can I recover from France?
i'm just... i'm devastated. i met this wonderful man on a dating app, 'Laurent', he was so attentive and charming. we talked for months, he knew everything about me, my family, my dreams. then he started talking about this amazing crypto investment opportunity, super exclusive, only for people he really trusted. he said it would double my inheritance within months, make our future together so much easier.
i transferred about 15,000 euros into this platform, 'CryptoWealth Pro' it was called. he walked me through every step. for a while, i saw numbers going up, i even 'withdrew' a small amount, like 100 euros, just to make sure it was real. it worked! so i put more in.
now, both 'Laurent' and the platform are gone. no replies, nothing. i feel so stupid, so gullible. my inheritance was meant for a down payment on a house. i'm in Nantes, France. where do i even begin to report this? is there any hope of getting even a tiny bit back?
