Hello,
I invested bitcoin in the TCPRO Company. They promised to return my funds after 45 days. But, they are scammers and blocked me on Telegram. Their website is tcpro.co and the address is New York based on the website.
Can you help me to get back my funds?
Regards,

2 TIME PREVIOUS CONVICTED FELON. WILL THIS CHARGE BR BUMPED UP TO A D FELONY BECAUSE OF PRIOR CONVICTIONS? WILL I BE REMANDED OR REQUIRE A BAIL
answered on Jul 28, 2021
You ask a good question. Because of your previous conviction, it may very well be upgraded to a felony under PL 265.02(1), CPW 3rd Degree, a class D felony.

The fact of "trespassing" will likely constitute "wrongdoing". Unless you meet the statutory conditions of "criminal" tresspassing, it's just a violation in NYS (you can get a ticket for a small fine).
