I‘ve been SCAMMED by some fucking idiot on
@UseRisePay
$13,2k stolen from my account
Yesterday I received an email stating I have to redo my KYC, which I then tried doing using the link from that email
I already received a similar email some weeks ago, however it landed in my spam folder and looked weird, and I noticed it wasn’t from Rise
This time it landed in my normal email folder, and the email appeared very professional too
So I felt for it and tried to do KYC using the link, which then first asked me to login to my account using my information
The page also looked very good, so I didn’t think anything of it, but weirdly it didn’t load and proceed to login
About 10 minutes later I then noticed emails about new wallet addresses being added that weren’t mine
And then another email about the $13,2k withdrawal to one of those wallets that I never requested
Just after now I checked and noticed the original KYC email wasn’t officially from Rise, but it was too late
I have some questions, but overall it‘s just quite frustrating
How did this guy even get to my email? I never shared it anywhere publicly?
Unfortunately
@UseRisePay support is also quite slow, meaning it will take some time before they respond to my messages
Mostly just sharing this for awareness, make sure you stay safe and also double check such emails
Besides that, if anyone can help or has any tips / similar experiences, please let me know
I‘m strongly assuming the money is gone, but if there is a way to trace it back or have it reverted, that would obviously be what I would try and do
