Hello,  
Someone send me btc to MetaMask after he helped me create a bitcoin adres. I can send the btc to another adres or wallet. But i get the notification that it is on bitcoin network. So i can’t do anything with it.  
I can see the amount but can’t sell or swap.  
Does anyone know why?  
Or is this a scam?  
They want to help me but first i have to pay them.
