Lost my life savings to a 'new friend' from an art app, fake crypto platform. Any hope from France?
I'm gutted, absolutely gutted. I met someone really charming on an art discussion app a few months ago. We talked about so much more than art, became close, and then he started talking about crypto investments, specifically urging me to put money into something called ZG.com. He made it sound so safe, so easy. I ended up putting in my entire life savings, about three years of hard work, after seeing some 'returns' in the app. Then, overnight, everything just vanished. My 'friend' stopped responding, the platform went dark. I feel so stupid and ashamed. I contacted my bank, but they just said the transfers went through. I don't know what to do. Is there any way to report this from France? Has anyone in France dealt with `ZG.com` before? I'm desperate for advice.
