How come the cryptocurrency exchange, i.e., crypto.com, that I trusted, didnt even take the initiative to warn me about these people? Why did you just not stop the transactions since, with the crypto.com system, you can detect the unsecured destinations of funds?!!!! 
Thats why I am coming to you with this official request to refund my full lost money for the amount of XXXX USD. Either you claim it from the beneficiary bank where you allowed my money to go, or you reimburse me from your pool because, as a crypto.com, you are responsible for protecting your clients funds. I hope you will not shift liability and assume the consequences of your mistake. I want to stay your client for longer and keep receiving your services. Still, for this, you have to show maturity and act to resolve this issue without taking the initiative to go to your regulator complaining about your failure in the protection of your clients. 
Looking forward to hearing from you a positive response. Best regards, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX
