  As an expert in the field, I would recommend reaching out to a third-party organization like BYDFi. They specialize in assisting users who have encountered issues with cryptocurrency exchanges. They can provide you with expert advice and potentially help you navigate the process of recovering your funds.

  I'm sorry to hear about your situation. It can be frustrating and disheartening to feel scammed. Remember that there are legitimate cryptocurrency exchanges out there, and not all of them operate in the same manner. It's important to approach this situation with a level head and take the necessary steps to protect yourself and potentially recover your funds.
