CTRL-FX is a SCAM!!

Between April to July 2023, I was involved in online forex trading using a broker based in the UK called CTRL-FX (https://www.ctrl-fx.com/). During this time, I had invested approximately $355,000 worth of cryptocurrency into this trading platform. This crypto payments were made via the cryptocurrency platform, Kraken (https://www.kraken.com/). I had initially tried to make crypto payments using the crypto platform, Coinbase (https://login.coinbase.com/signin?login_challenge=f515c26042e343b99847900dd8bf8970). But when I tried to send funds to CTRL-FX using Coinbase, Coinbase rejected to make the transfer to CTRL-FX and restricted my account from sending crypto without giving me any reason. Kraken however allowed me to transfer crypto to CTRL-FX. Shortly after the last crypto transfer from Kraken to CTRL-FX, Kraken shut down my account without any reason. Between April and mid-May 2023, I would appear to have made significant gains while trading using the CTRL-FX platform. In May 2023, I requested to withdraw all my capital and gains from my CTRL-FX account. Following my request to withdraw all funds in my CTRL-FX account, CTRL-FX requested that I make numerous fees payments and tax payments amounting to approximately $484500. Without making these payments, CTRL-FX refused to send me my funds. I complied with the CTRL-FX request to make these payments as I was not aware then that CTRL-FX was a scam forex trading platform. The approximately $484,500 of additional fees and tax payments were made bank wire transfers as Coinbase and Kraken restricted or closed my accounts, respectively, without any reason being provided to me. The bank wire transfers to CTRL-FX were made to various bank accounts in Hong Kong that were in different names. Despite making all the additional fees and tax payments, as requested by CTRL-FX, CTRL-FX continued to refuse to send me my funds and requested for more payments.
