Hello,

I guess I been scammed by a scammer who used a typical "pickbuttering" scam scheme (please correct me If I spell wrong). So, a scammer contacted me via Telegram asking to buy tokens because he can`t buy direclty from exchanges. First I was sceptical , but slowly he convinced me, so we agreed to make a deal. I sell him pancake tokens, he transfers me USDT. Then he reccomended P2PCoindex.com platform for this P2P payment, I check reviews on internet and found both positive and negative reviews. Website is here: https://p2pcoindex.com/
     Then we tried small test transaction on P2Pcoindex and all went well (I guess this is how they work) and then we opened 2 trades for full amounts we agreed. After both trades been opened I been asked from P2Pcoindex.com Live support to pay various fees:
1) First I paid transaction fees. Transfer had ot be made directly to their wallet adress (this was strange);
2) Then after transactions been "confirmed" and time came to withdraw they said now I have to pay 3.5% withdrawal fee (this was never mentioned before). So I had no choise but to pay this...
3) Then finally when I wanted to withdraw they said I have to pass KYC verification. OK, so I sent my Passport photo and selfie and they answered: "We can`t identify your passport ID number". I asked is it because of not good enough photo quality or other reason? Thyey did not answer just said now there is an option to pass KYC for me IF I pay 650 USD to them and my documents will be forwarded to UK (United Kingdom) National cyber cecurity centre (NCSC).


Please advice me what to do now? I was scammed I guess?

Thank you,
