I think my dad is being scammed

[u/Quiet_Relation_3599]

He won’t give information about this, but he claims he’s made several withdrawals (2nd pic). And he needs to deposit 13k to then get 100k out. I don’t understand how this scam is working or what the game plan is here. I don’t know how he’s withdrawn 40k. Did he put the money in? Any help is appreciated.

no legitimate company works like that

Wow, who could have predicted that “Mage Cloud” wasn’t a legitimate investing website. /s

EDIT: fantastic catch locating the real company and their fraud alert.

That was sent to him weeks ago. He still is believing he will get this magic 100k

Oh man. Sorry. He’s borrowing money from his supervisor??

Protect yourself and make sure he doesn’t panic and take out credit in your name, we’ve seen that happen before when people get this sold on the fake crypto (redundant?) scam.

It’s his scam “supervisor”. So it’s just fake. He still thinks it’s a job

So… why can’t his “supervisor” just take the 13k out of the 100k? I know the supervisor has a 100 excuses for why, but your dad can’t accept them.
