Sharing his ordeal on X (formerly known as Twitter), the heartbroken man explained that he had sold his phone and other personal belongings just to raise $313 for the investment. Unfortunately, his hopes were shattered when he discovered that withdrawals on the platform had suddenly stopped.

He wrote in frustration:
“I joined Cbex with an investment of $313 just yesterday, Wednesday. However, this evening, I found out that people can no longer withdraw their money today.”

“The painful part is that I sold my phone and some other belongings to join this trade. Please, I need help. Cbex, don’t go yet!”

His emotional post immediately attracted massive attention online, sparking mixed reactions from social media users.

Some sympathized with him, while others blamed him for falling for such a risky venture.

A user, @Kanumba, said:
“I told my guy, why are they saying you can’t withdraw until the 14th? Lol 😂😂😂 is gone.”

Another user, @Max_J6109, reacted by reminding him that investing always comes with risks:
“You guys always talked about taking risk. This is one of those risks.”

A concerned user, @sonuken9x, offered some words of comfort:
“Damn, that’s rough bro. Hope you can get your cash out soon.”

Similarly, @TadyJerry sympathized with him saying:
“Omo!! I feel your pain. Hopefully you get your money back.”

For @Shomex56, the situation was a narrow escape:
“This is really sad. And this is something I wanted to join just last week but I change my mind.”

Interestingly, some users started marketing other platforms they believed were safer. @name_going66531 wrote:
“If you sabi, you go cash out steady! 4–12% daily with triangle arbitrage, verified sites like Binance, Bybit, MEXC. No risk, na soft life straight. I fit plug you.”

Meanwhile, another user, @utdvexman, advised him to stay calm, suggesting that the issue might be temporary due to a bonus season restriction:
“Bro relax if you are not in it you no go know wetin dey sup. They clearly stated that you shouldn’t withdraw during the bonus season. Nigerians no dey hear word just wait till next week Tuesday when the bonus season is done..”

As of now, the fate of the man’s investment remains uncertain. While some users believe the platform may resume withdrawals after the stated bonus period, others fear it might be another case of a Ponzi scheme crash. Many have taken his story as a lesson on the risks of investing in online trading platforms without proper research.
