I was recently contacted by a financial trading company I once invested $250. They said my investment had grown because they use an auto-trader, but due to account inactivity, wanted to close the account and send me my profits.
I provided them my bitcoin wallet and they sent me a screenshot of the deposit transaction that showed Unconfirmed. I was then apparently contacted by Blockchain, who said I had to go through this process:
Buy 20% of the deposit amount of bitcoin though the company platform I have my wallet.
Then contact them and put this bitcoin into a blockchain wallet at Blockchain.com for 1-5 mins while my "cash flow" transaction is verified. Then the deposit amount and the amount of bitcoin I purchased would automatically go back into my original wallet.
I have done none of this. This feels like a total scam, and I wrong?
