OpenPayd wants Nasdaq investors to buy the unicorn story. FinTelegram sees the scam-rail reality: victim files show OpenPayd vIBAN infrastructure inside alleged fraud payment paths involving Klickl Europe, fake investment apps, and “Sweep to Primary Account” transfers — just as OpenPayd seeks a $1.145 billion Nasdaq listing via Titan.
FinTelegram has received a victim-organized app list that changes the OpenPayd–Klickl case materially. The list identifies several dozen victim-app entries and at least 27 different app/front-end names allegedly used to lure victims into the same OpenPayd–Klickl payment rail. KXTRA and Peelhuntaicore were not isolated brands. They appear to be part of a disposable app-front-end layer feeding victim funds into OpenPayd Malta vIBANs / CFTEMTM1 and onward to Klickl Europe.
Klickl is not merely a Polish VASP. FinTelegram’s investigation shows a global Chinese-controlled crypto-finance network around Michael Xu Zhao / Xu Zhao, linking Klickl Europe, Klickl Pay, IDCM, VGPay, C1 Fund, ADGM/UAE, Canada, and OpenPayd victim-fund sweeps. The Polish entity appears to be the EU-facing rail node.
A new victim report points to another OpenPayd/CFTE-style vIBAN crypto scam rail. The victim was groomed through a dating app and WhatsApp, instructed to fund a Crypto.com Cash Account via a Malta IBAN, create a Trust Wallet, and transfer funds to Ubsdfx.com. Reported loss: around €60,000.
FinTelegram’s OpenPayd–Klickl investigation has moved beyond KXTRA. A new OpenPayd GDPR response confirms that victim-facing IBANs were named virtual IBANs linked to Klickl Europe’s corporate payment account. Victim files now connect this rail to both KXTRA / KKR Global Investment and fake Peel Hunt / Peelhuntaicore scams.
Klickl presents itself as a regulated Web3 finance platform. Victim files reviewed by FinTelegram point to a darker role: Klickl Europe appears as the primary-account recipient of funds swept from OpenPayd-linked victim accounts in the KXTRA / KKR Global Investment scam. RatEx42 has flagged Klickl Red and DAREX D. The central question is blunt: where did Klickl send the money next?
FinTelegram has reviewed victim files exposing the payment machine behind the alleged KXTRA / KKR Global Investment scam. The evidence points to OpenPayd-linked victim-named VIBANs, immediate sweeps to Polish crypto/on-ramp provider Klickl Europe, and partial payouts through short-lived UK company TFG Technology Ltd. This is not merely a compliance story. It is a suspected fraud-rail case.
Ozan Ozerk is often portrayed in the media—most recently in a flattering Türkiye Today profile—as a visionary Turkish entrepreneur reshaping global finance through his fintech ventures, most notably OpenPayd, EMBank, and Ozan Elektronik Para. But as regulatory actions mount and his companies increasingly surface in investigations tied to high-risk payments, scam facilitation, and money laundering,
OpenPayd, a Malta-licensed payment institution long flagged by FinTelegram for its involvement in facilitating high-risk transactions and supporting scam-related financial infrastructure, has now been officially held liable by Malta’s Financial Arbiter. The ruling follows an investigation into a case in which an elderly woman was aggressively manipulated by fraudsters and lost her investment through an account operated via OpenPayd’s virtual IBAN infrastructure.
