DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS
"I transferred my coins to Trust Wallet because of Binance recommendations and the reviews l read were positive. WHAT A MISTAKE! They scammed me of 20000 coins by the time l finally was able to get out of there. They let you transfer in easily...but the first mishap happen on the transfer in with COCOS coins....10000. From Binance l transferred to a BEP2 platform instead of an erc20... Trust Wallet don't have a BEP2 platform...they have for every other coins but not COCOS. Binance support told me because of the wrong sent it was up to Trust Wallet to return my coin to Binance. You wouldn't believe the non existent support of this wallet... I tried everything in emails to get them to help me reclaiming my COCOS...they didn't reply to any of my mail acknowledging to anything to do with COCOS...they sent "we strongly encourage you to visit a web site on a community blog". So 2 weeks later no COCOS...they are lost and l am helpless to regain them while l know they are at Trust Wallet. When l finally realized that these people at Trust Wallet were crooks l decided to get everything out of there but when you transfer in they don't tell you that you need BNB coins to get out to pay for the fees...so l had to go to Binance and buy both BNB coins...BNB and BNB smart chain coins...transfer them to Trust Wallet and then l could transfer out! I transfered all my coins out but they scsmmed me out of 10200 ADA coins on the transfer out! I sent out 18640 ADA coins in 4 batches...all sent within the same parameters, hashtags...2 batches didn't make it! I again got on their useless support and again l got nowhere. This is so frustrating, so stressing and so self depreciating to feel such HELPLESSNESS in dealing with supposedly a legit company! What am l to do to get back what belongs to me...? "STAY AWAY FROM TRUST WALLET""
"What's worse is that Trust Wallet is owned by none other then BINANCE...and they are in cahoot together to scam clients! I complained to the FTC about my nightmare and now over a month since to the complaint was sent and no response from them! My friends it's my belief that companies like BINANCE are committing fraud in grand scale...the government knows about it and does nothing to stop it! Just last week Gensler of the SEC admitted that regulations were required in crypto due to too many fraudulent occurrences! To form a group to bring Trust Wallet to court would be logical and they would the easiest to attain with their head office in San Francisco...however Binances head office is in Malta and eventually a court action against Trust Wallet would bring us to Binance. And now you see the logic of Binance having a head office in Malta...to discourage any court action against them! They have the perfect setup to scam...no telephone number anywhere to call...a pathetic support system where they only answer to what they want to answer! Meanwhile the CEO is glamorized of being the most brilliant innovator creating billions of wealth for himself and his cronies! How many are on the take to legitimize his scams is unknown...! To take Binance to court...one needs deep pockets and contacts that are powerfully motivated to go the distance with this matter of grand theft from a supposedly legitimate business!"
Reddit user monsieurgil lost funds when transferring from Binance to Trust Wallet, and when doing a swap through Trust Wallet. They first sent their COCOS tokens via the wrong chain to the Trust Wallet, and subsequently proceeded to send ADA tokens in 4 batches to a Trust Wallet swap service. It is unclear what the end outcome will be and whether their funds will be recovered or not.
