They ask you for an admin fee to release the funds to your account, nothing to large, then when you pay stg else needs a small payment and so on. Eventually some people pay tens of thousands and so in order to avoid "losing" all that amount, they keep paying sums of a few thousand to get to the final payout (hich of course never happens). Some people have lost 6-figure sums!   | ||
