It's my first message and I'm crying...

I had about 3.5 bitcoin, I tried to use some a short while ago and got a message that there is a compulsory upgrade.

I downloaded and installed the upgrade on my iMac, restarted Electrum, and then it happened...

It immediately said there was not enough funds to transfer the amount of ALL my coins but continued trying to process it until it eventually said there is a zero balance.

BOOM! EVERYTHING IS GONE!!

:-(

This is so sad on different level, the scam has been going on since 2018 and people keep falling for it. I can only imagine what you are going through currently but you just have to keep the hope alive buddy!  And when next you get back at your feet standing tall, try to get a more secure hardware wallet to save your assets. It sad losing asset as big as this but i believe this will be a lesson for you and everyone, with time the industry will get rid of these scammers
