I just received a phone call from someone in Scotland claiming to be with Bitcoin.org.  What is Bitcoin.org and what is its purpose?

This situation is like somebody calling you and saying " I am Facebook or Twitter". No single person is bitcoin.org. Bitcoin.org is a community of Bitcoin believers that discusses about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. So no single person is Bitcoin.org. From his comments it is clear that he is lying so be careful.

The person who called me claims that they can send me money that I had invested in an online trading platform that was found to be fraudulent and was subsequently shutdown.  This person claims that my funds will be sent without me making a payment to them until after I have received my funds.

This clearly shows that the person intends to defraud you. These fraudsters always make enticing promises that will never be fulfilled. Please don't continue with the conversation because he might be able to convince you to believe he is genuine. He is simply a scammer, so beware.
