BTC Help me. I have purchased mining software that doubles my bitcoins as Bitcoin Core on my Computer. I won 0.05 BTC in two days and I took it out but I want to mine again and the software asks me for an activation key which costs 1BTC when my wallet does not reach this amount.
What do you mean by taking it out? Are you able to get or withdrew that
BTC0.05? Or maybe you think that amount is already in your hand but still, it's just a figure on your dashboard and now to get it, you need to purchase the activation key to continue.
And since it's a software, you just allow it to enter your system. Hopefully, it's a low kind of software created in a quick and short script that intended to lure those newbies who are not really aware of those programs. Any related programs you will encounter in the future, you should consider it as a scam.
Make a clean check and diagnose your PC right away. I recommend Malwarebytes.
