He also shared how he led her to the platform and why he decided to refund, even though she told him not to.

The man added:

“Gertrude was the last person I had guided to join CBEX (2 months ago) who was still on the platform. I felt so bad that she had trusted my recommendation so much and joined CBEX, but hadn't withdrawn a dime.
“Even though she initially joined with less than $300 and I didn't earn a nickel from her deposit by way of bonuses, I promised to refund her what she had invested— despite her not asking me to. Gertrude is a good and rare soul and I MUST take accountability for her trusting me because trust is rare in these evil times.”
