NFTPRIMEARTS NFTPrimiumArts As an artist, I was invited by a prospective buyer to purchase three of my artwork, but they did not want to buy it traditionally, but wanted me to list my three pieces on a specific NFT website.. once I listed by pieces which cost me $300 each to list the prospective buyer purchase my pieces for a total of $9000 so I had a credit on the account of $9000 so I asked for a withdrawal of that money to personally be sent to me directly and this is where the shake down begins first you must upgrade your account which is $1610 and you must pay for this with crypto coin, which once purchased and sent to their address, is no longer reversible

So I complied they assuring me that all monies they received from me in this process of getting my credit of $9000 would be returned to me in my withdrawal. Next I get a IRS statement stating that the tax on this $9000 is $2500. The statement looked bogus and why I complied I will not know but I complied I sent $2500 in crypto. and they told me that there's only one more fee, and that is the royalties fee of $5200 all the while claiming that I'm going to get these monies back in my withdrawal ..all the while the person who invited me to purchase, these pieces, became more and more suspicious in my mind, and realized that they were a ploy and just another extension of the company. In fact they were the same person who called himself Richard ...in the end I lost $17,000 to them. Waiting for the so-called withdrawal and I have received nothing. It's been six weeks now. I have contacted other artists on the site to find out if any are experiencing what I have been experiencing and I did find one who is waiting for his withdrawal and who is very sorry that he's gotten himself into this scam and so I now try to contact any new artist who come onto the site to warn them not to give them any money 'you will not see it again' the company is nothing but a criminal operation. I have no address for them. My due diligence of doing research first with the initial invitation somehow failed to materialize, and I fell into this rabbit hole blindly. I'm ashamed of myself so complicit in my own financial demise, ...It was the invitation to us by a so-called innocent party that we fell for ... who as artists would love to be selling artwork... the phone numbers I provided are WhatsApp phone numbers
