Hello everyone here, I am here to warn you to please do not make the same mistake I made in the past, I was a victim of a bitcoin scam. I’m so glad that I have gotten all my funds back without any stress thanks to CYBERSPACE HACK PRO company. For me. I am posting this review because I want to be of help to someone out there going through a lot to recover their bitcoin even though many people told me it’s impossible. I invested about $632,000 from a Binary Operation company I found on Telegram. After much depositing, I decided to withdraw after several weeks but the withdrawal wasn’t successful. I contacted the binary operation through their email and phone number, though I didn’t get any response from them and that was when everything clicked that I was scammed. Some weeks later I got an email from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected, and I never heard from them again. I was really devastated at this moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. Then I was introduced to this wonderful recovery company Called CYBER SPACE HACK PRO company, so I emailed them Cyberspacehackpro(@)rescueteam.com explained to them what happened and all I had to do was to follow there instructions so they can help me recover my funds which they did and i got all my money back i am so happy i decided to share my good news for those that are having same issues should contact them via
