PrimeInvest broker, was a scam from the start,and unfortunately, my concerns were justified. After I deposited the sum of $15,000 and my profits was $115,000. I faced constant obstacles trying to withdraw my profits. Not until I was advised to seek help from a legal recovery expert, to help me recover my money back. Which I was introduced to a reliable recovery expert, and i reached out to him through his email,([email protected]) and i provided him with every necessary information he needed, to help me successfully get my money back, I’m sharing this review to applaud his good work and his team, you can reach out to him for help.

I was a victim too, and I have suffered a financial loss exceeding $180,000 as a result of its activities. A recurring pattern observed in this scheme is the continuous demand for additional payments from victims under false pretenses.

I am pleased to state that I have since recovered my funds with the assistance of cybertechdata_forensics. Based on my experience, I recommend that affected individuals seek professional assistance and submit electronic communications supported by relevant evidence for proper review and action

They portray themselves as a Sportsbook, but it is a scam. Once you make a deposit and win a bet, they will then say you need to wager 3x the deposit amount + promo funds. They initially told me I had to wager $775 to withdraw the $30 I won, and now two weeks later they are saying I need to wager $2,2751 to access that $30. Honestly ridiculous and who’s to say after wagering that amount, I would even get my funds. I do not recommend this app to anyone.

I invested in this platform called I3Q, promoted by some YouTubers who promoted returns through the stock market using artificial intelligence. Their website is www.i3q.com and they say they are located at 122 Leadenhall Street, London, EC3V 4AB, and in the USA they are located at 124 W Capitol Ave, Little Rock 72201. From the start, they do not allow withdrawals of funds and deposited profits, and when you try, they tell you they will send you a code via SMS which never arrives. Yesterday they disabled their website and they are trying to partially update it, but when you try to enter your credentials, it does not allow it. Do not invest your money there, they are scammers.

Charles hobbs the owner of worldwide credit systems approached my family and I with an investment. He was someone who I knew and thought I could trust. The investment was in credit card readers that his business would then place in businesses. We were to either get our investment back or get our investment back plus 50% of all sales for the first 2 weeks of machine usage. After initially investment money was to be received back 6 months later. Charles using many manipulation and lying tactics and a over a year later we still have no return. After some digging, we found out that he has similar judgements to where no justice was served, and he continues to live a lavish life. While leaving me with ***** dollars to my name. I am elderly and disabled. Please help

They have a Facebook business account with the name of Growth pilot, he's the one who sent the website, when you sign up it may looks like a legit website, you deposit $100 and after 4 hours they fund the account with $4400, when you have to withdraw you get to KYC verify first after that you start the process of withdrawal and 30 minutes later when you never receive the money you contact support they gonna ask you $400 for Network gas fee so you can receive the money after 2 minutes, I didn't get farther than that because that confirm me it was a scam. Be careful people.

The offer came to be saying all it needed to be done was to like videos and submit them on their app. The pay depended on what level you were on. To get to a higher level you to pay more. Once you have pay and done with your tasks and you want to get your money they say you have to pay an extra fee to access your money. Once you pay that fee is paid and you want to get your money then they ask you to pay 15% of the taxes before you can access your money.

In January 2025 Arden (Ujka) Banks (instagram: ecomdeni, ecomarden, ecom_arden, etc.) and I entered a signed contract by both parties for his online services. In this agreement I paid him with the promise to make my initial investment of $4000 back within 30 days or I would receive a full refund. He promised to make at least $5,000+/Month with his services and possibly retiring my family. I never received any return on my investment. He ghosted and came back, deleted, blocked me everywhere, and when he did contact me, he gave 2 word replies every 2 days. I already had a store I created for free, which had better results, but trusted him, as I was vulnerable and desperate after being laid off before Christmas Eve. When I showed proof to Arden, I asked for a refund, I was told I will not receive one even though he was in breach of our contract, and all he did was blame me and threaten me. He did not honor is own contract and blocked me my other accounts on social media after explaining to him I will make an official complaint if I do not receive a full refund. This has caused great stress and financial hardship on me and my family. I was already in debt before dealing with him. Huge mistake on my part and he should be in jail for doing this to people who are already struggling.

Met through online dating app. He created a similar life experience to hook me and have me believe in him. Once hooked then the money investment came into play. He had me open a chase and wells fargo accounts, he would transfer money from a LLC account, that I later found out was not his. There were two different company accounts. Then he had me transfer them to my crypto apps and then to said company for a total investment of $120,000 with a return of $240,000.

We both worked as teachers aid and she told me that she invested money and that she was no longer working for school system. Then she got me involve investing and sending money to this TopunionTrade, in various way: cash app, venmo, apple paid, credit card, debit cards, and we my husband and me send money to paid IRS, and now they will not realease documents that shows payments made to the IRS recipt or nothing because they want us to pay 15200 more. They stole our money. I contacted police in North Carolina because that was the place my friend (***** *****) moved to. When I checked the phone numebr it was in California, then I knew something was not right, and she will not take my phone calls or call me. I sent $7500 to a wallet to supposstly paid taxes and it was just a scam.

I initially came into contact with Xqtraders via their website in January 2022. Xqtraders presented itself as a reputable investment firm, registered with the Florida Department of State, claiming to offer high-yield returns through Forex trading, stocks, indices, commodities, bonds, and cryptocurrency investments. Encouraged by their professional appearance and the promise of substantial monthly profits, I decided to invest with them.

Initially, my experience seemed positive; I was able to withdraw small amounts in February and April 2022, which reassured me of the legitimacy of their operations. Motivated by these successful withdrawals, I reinvested my profits. However, in October 2022, the Xqtraders website became inaccessible, and all attempts to contact them for support or to withdraw my funds were unsuccessful. The website disappearance coincided with a complete cessation of all communication from the company.

Throughout my interaction, Xqtraders used various tactics to appear credible and attract investors. These included:

• Displaying a legitimate-sounding address in Florida as part of their contact details, suggesting a stable business operation.

• Offering detailed and seemingly sophisticated trading programs which promised guaranteed returns, an unrealistic claim in the volatile world of trading.

• Utilizing professional-looking marketing materials and communications which included charts and graphs of market activities to demonstrate their trading success.

Further investigation revealed that the claims of association with recognized professionals and institutions were unfounded. For instance, they claimed that a certain "Russ Kevin Childers" was a managing member, who is, in fact, a Philanthropy Database Analyst at Evergreen Goodwill of Northwest Washington and has no ties to the financial or trading sectors.

Given the abrupt disappearance of their website and their failure to respond to contact attempts, along with the misleading information they provided, I believe Xqtraders was operating a Ponzi scheme under the guise of a legitimate investment firm. The platform's strategy was likely focused on using funds from new investors to pay earlier ones, rather than engaging in actual trading activities.

I am reporting this incident to help prevent further fraudulent activities by Xqtraders and to alert potential investors of their deceptive practices.
