It's high summer and still C19 time. We notice it in scam activities as well. Currently, the fraudulent marketing and affiliate campaigns like Oil Profit are promoting fewer scams. While scammers slowed down, CySEC-regulated investment companies pop up on our radar 20 times a day and intensively use these scam campaigns to catch naive clients. This morning, the Oil Profit Campaign promotes the lousy 365CapitalMarkets scam, where we discovered PaymentsPro as the scam-facilitating payment processor. Stay away and enjoy the summer with your money!

We have issued a warning against the broker scam AlgofGain on May 18, 2021. Currently, the scam is promoted via fake news articles on the website https://yucosmos.com praising the fraudulent BitQT campaign on Best Invest News. They are attacking German-speaking consumers. The scam has built an extensive collection of supporting payment processors via its BoxiPay cashier. On Trustpilot, AlgofGain now has only a 2.8-star rating with a "Poor" trust level. Do not fall for BitQT and AlgofGain.

The German regulator BaFin has issued an investor warning against BexStock (www.bexstock.com), allegedly a successor to InvestEXP (www.investexp.de) and beEXP (www.beexp.de) scams. BS ASIA Pte. Ltd, Singapore, allegedly operates them. In our quick review, we found BexStock's payment processors to be NeoBanQ (www.neobanq.com) and PaymentsPro (www.paymentspro.ch), as well as the cryptoprocessor Larco (www.larco-global.com). So stay far away from BexStock and keep your money.

Currently, the two related broker scams AGKapital and AlgofGain, are being promoted via various fraudulent marketing campaigns. What is special about these two scams is that they both work with the BoxiPay Cashier (operated by PayBox) and the same list of payment processors. Among them the usual suspects like iPayTotal, NeoBanQ, or PayCent but also others like the Turkish RHG Partners, Bitngo, or ikajo. The scams claim on their websites that they fall under Estonian jurisdiction. Many of their payment processors do too!

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has issued an investor warning against the broker scam PrimeQX. The scam is operated by PRIME BUSINESS FINANCE LTD and MAGNETITS CAPITAL LTD. The scam claims to be regulated by CySEC with license number 129/22. The scammers operate the fake CySEC site www.cysecgov.com where PrimeQX is falsely presented as a CySEC-approved domain. As the scams payment facilitators, we have discovered iPayTotal, Itez, WE4BTC, and PaymentsPro.

Today we received another nice email from [email protected]. In the email, we are once again presented with a link to FXOffers (www.fxoffers.cc) and its fraudulent Elite Trading Club campaign. A video still promises that you can earn more than €15,000 daily without risk on the campaign page. The campaign promises to make you a millionaire. Got it, stupid? All you have to do is register. Today, victims are being sought via this fraudulent campaign for broker scams IGM Holdings, HQ Trade, and FinoCapital. Do not be one of these victims.
