Crypto trading platform with a personal 'broker'

After an ad with a celebrity photo an advisor gets in touch. A first small withdrawal works and the dashboard shows rising profits. When you withdraw the big amount, sudden 'taxes' or an 'unlock fee' appear — money that is lost as well.

Warning signs

  • A first small withdrawal works (trust trick)
  • Profits exist only inside the dashboard
  • A fee is demanded before payout
  • Support via WhatsApp/Telegram, remote access requested

What to do

Send nothing more. Save all transaction IDs, report to the exchange, file a police report — and dispute with your bank or card issuer if used.
