Hi, sorry to hear that.

MetaMask is a self-custodial wallet. It has no control over your wallet or what you do with it. You are the only one in control. It’s up to you to not give that control away. You fell for a scam. Reach out to our helpdesk: [https://support.MetaMask.io](https://support.MetaMask.io) and click the "Start a Conversation"button. The bot will ask a few questions then get you connected.

I’m really sorry this happened, it’s tough to deal with scams like these. You’re not alone; many users have faced the same situation.
