ExtremeT Fx Tricked into deposting funds that cannot be withdrawn Grey Lynn Auckland 

Individual poses as another user on YouTube which I follow and subscribe to. Made up a username so similar to the real user that you barely notice it's not him when commenting on their YouTube video. Scam user comments after your comment offering to provide insight into trading crypto and then provides a whatsapp telephone number to contact. From here begins to discuss a "trading platform" that he and his team have been using to make successful and profitable trades with bots. After choosing which plan to utilize (according to the dollar amount sent to them), they then purport to invest the funds and provide a 10%+ return within 48 hours. After setup, the website shows your balance of initial investment and later your profits also for a total account balance. When you try to withdraw the funds or reinvest the funds again; the website and support tells you that you can't withdraw or reinvest your money without adding more funds.

After looking further, the company website was registered in October 2024 through a privacy host based in Sweden which is known for internet website privacy laws and utilized by scammers all over the world for this purpose. (There are numerous scam sites registered with the same registrar.) The company's physical location goes to a car garage in New Zealand and none of the social media sites advertised are real or in existance. This is a total PIG BUTCHERING organization. BEWARE OF THESE FRAUDSTERS!
