Lost all my USDC to a fake CoinEgg exchange site, can I get it back?
i'm so disheartened. i met someone online, they seemed really nice, we talked for months. then they introduced me to crypto trading, specifically this platform they called 'CoinEgg'. it looked legit, i swear, like a proper exchange. i put in what i thought was small money at first, about 2000 USD, converted it to USDC and 'traded' it. the profits looked amazing, so i put in more, and more, until i had over 15,000 USDC. i was so excited, thinking i was set. but then i tried to withdraw, and they kept asking for 'tax fees' and 'unlocking charges'. i paid some of those too, which was so stupid in hindsight. now i can't access anything and the person disappeared. is there any way to trace this or get my money back? i feel so foolish.
