Hello Tariq,

Thank you for sharing the details of your interaction with OEXBAKE and the subsequent difficulties you’ve encountered with your account being frozen. We understand how distressing and frustrating it must be to find yourself in this situation.

Based on the information you’ve provided, particularly the request for a deposit of 5000 USDT to unfreeze your account, it is a common tactic employed by fraudulent platforms to extract more funds from their victims. Legitimate financial and trading platforms do not require payment to unlock or unfreeze accounts in this manner. This practice is a red flag indicating a scam.

It’s crucial to approach this situation cautiously and refrain from sending any additional funds to the platform or any associated addresses. Doing so would likely result in further financial loss without resolving the issue.

Stay vigilant and informed,
Adam
