Complaint narrative:
From XX/XX/2022 until XX/XX/2022, I fell victim to a multilayered scam operation orchestrated by XXXX XXXX ( the Fraudsters or the Company ), with the design, development, manufacturing, promoting, marketing, distributing, labeling, and/or sale of illegal and outright fraudulent investment services, all of which aim at contributing to the goal of robbing and defrauding clients through a predetermined cycle of client losses to gains in the equivalent of XXXX USD which was transferred from my wallet utilizing your services.
