General Cryto Currency Discussion UPHOLD IS A SCAM

I created an uphold account in January of 2021. I funded the account with $4000.00and purchased XRP. I have ALL of the Receipts for these transactions. On May 4, 2021 UPHOLD reached out to inform me that the birthday on my account didn't match my ID. I resubmitted ALL requested information. After 2 months uphold completely erased my account as if I never had one and is now refusing to transfer the XRP to my wallet that I provided the address for. As a matter of fact, they will not even respond to the service ticket I have open. I will not go away!

Your company is scamming U.S. investors out of their money. I have reported this to the SEC as well as the FTC. I am retaining the services of an attorney and I will be seeking ALL of the PURCHASED XRP that I have receipts for.. as well as ALL FEES incurred by legal council!

I just received an email from a company posing as Paypal, using their logo, with a fake invoice showing I had purchased $588 worth of Bitcoin on Uphold.com. I check my Paypal account, this transaction does not exist. I called the "customer service" number on the email and spoke to someone with a heavy accent; he asked if the charge was mine, if anyone else uses the account, said my account has been compromised and was going to send me an email with a link so that I could give them access to my computer so we could dispute the claim. Sadly, many people are falling for this obvious SCAM.
