Is this guy just another scammer? What's the story with this Angelo guy?
Well at this point I'm not sure. Out of the blue, he friended me on Facebook. So, maybe he read my Crypto scam story, where I was scammed out of $1,000, that I sponsored on FB. He seemed harmless just as an FB friend, but... I'm wondering what his angle is.

On Friday, 4/7/23, He sent me a messenger message, offering to track the scammer and get my money back. So, in his message he asked me, "how much money did I lose?" Because the incident seemed suspicious to me, (everything on FB is suspicious to me, now) I didn't give him an exact amount. Instead, I replied "enough to annoy me" see the chat below. We chatted from the Friday the 7th of April to Saturday the 15th. During that time he came up with some nigga from Lagos, Nigeria, who he claimed had some $40,000 in his account and that he coud drain his account and give to me.

Well, that didn't take too much consideration. There is this guy that I don't know from adam, who claims he tracked this nigga scammer to Nigeria (but I really beleive the scammer is Chinese) and that for a key which would cost me $180. he could drain some $40,000 buck from the scammer and transfer it to my account... Unfortunately, I'm not buying it. So, I passed and suggested that he transfer the 40k to his own account. That was the end of that story. I still believe that this guy is a con man, trying to get a free lunch from me...

So, that was on Friday the 7th, we are now the 11th, and I still didn't get a response as to whether he can trace my scammer to see if he/she was a US based or not... So, I'm guessing that he wanted to know an amount to figure out how much he would charge me (or rip me off) under the pretense of getting my money back. I'm sure that whatever money I sent to this guy, would be lost money. There could be a million reasons why a scammer can't be located.

Anyway, I've heard of this type of scammer; disguised as hackers who will get your money back. But they won't, they'll just take your money. Even if they are US based, and get you for some $5,000 to $10,000 the law or the FBI, aren't going to pursue that small amount. And, if the scammer is out of the US, you will never see that money again. The law has no jurisdiction outside of the US.

Bottom line, if you got scammed, just regard it as a boxing lesson. There isn't much you can do. Definitely don't get scammed a second time, and lose even more money, with some hacker pretending to help you get your money back. The only ones you can trust in this situation would be law enforcement. They won't ask you for money to get your money back. But, they probably wouldnt' get your money back either. Maybe they can make an arrest, but the money is long gone...
