BaFin follows FinTelegram and investigates vanished RocketChart broker scam

In April 2021, we issued a warning against the RocketChart broker scam that wanted to catch victims via fraudulent marketing campaigns like BitQT. Also, in German-speaking countries. It took a few months before the German regulator BaFin announced an investigation into the scam, which has since disappeared. The investigation probably won't yield much insight, but it may be enough to file a report with the relevant law enforcement agency?

Pointless 404 investigation – German BaFin launches probe into vanished Finexics

FinTelegram has issued several warnings against the Finexics broker scam. Likewise, some regulators such as the Austrian FMA have issued investor warnings. The scam was operated through Slinqo Group Ltd, allegedly registered in Cyprus. As predicted, the scam has since disappeared. Nevertheless, the BaFin has announced investigations against the scam and its operators. BaFin will probably not find anything to find the scammers, and investors cannot be protected now either. It's more a sort of forensic investigation, which is the job of law enforcement.
