FinTelegram has uncovered several broker scams over the last two years that we have attributed to the so-called Plutus Racket. This means that these scams were run by the same boiler rooms, even if they used different offshore entities as operators. Most recently, we were contacted by a victim of the Stockhome scam who has since disappeared. The domain www.stockhome.io redirects to www.google.com. We would like to know more about the operators and request any relevant information.

The same boiler room apparently operates the three broker scam brands. Victims report that chat history is shared about at least these three scams. We have already reported about the Plutus scam (here) and the Lucrum scam (here). The Galore scam (www.galore.pro) is allegedly operated by ITM Solutions LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. This entity also operates the Plutus scam. The offshore entity behind the Lucrum scam is Econdary LLC, also registered in SVG. On two BTC addresses, we have discovered a total of barely BTC58 worth more than $3.3M.

FinTelegram recently issued an investor warning against Bitcoin Formula, an affiliate system to recruit new victims for various broker scams. Among them, we have discovered the Lucrum.Pro (www.lucrum.pro) is one of the many scams promoted via Bitcoin Formula. This specific scam is allegedly operated by Econdary LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Deposits can be made using an intermediate solution via Stripe and PayPal or cryptocurrencies. The scam found an interesting solution to integrate Stripe and PayPal via a Polish Sales Master Z.O.O. (d/b/a Varifilio).
