I think i can believe in everything in cryptocurrency business.. You should not listen anyone.. I am in this market from several years and i have seen many bad things. The people can be scammer easily so you should never trust anyone from here. With all my preventions i got scammed twice, i followed someone that he made me buy some coins and that was his shit coins but i couldn't realise.. And ones again someone made me buy Bitcoin Private from $70 and made me HODL.. Now price is less than $3.. When i think about the scammers i always ask to myself that how can they get even sleep at nights??
Sorry to hear about your story which I find particularly depressing but apparently not an uncommon experience in crypto. Can i ask how this individual you followed made you buy his shit coins?
Thanks for sharing.
