Title: SCAM ALERT: Etctrade
Post by: The Bitcoin Co-op on August 19, 2017, 05:10:18 AM
Hey guys, I apologize if this is in the wrong format or if Etctrade has already been brought to the forum's attention. I just found out about it, myself.

Basically, Etctrade (https://etcbank.io/) is founded by the same people as Ethtrade, and therefore a scam. I have information from a previous investigation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2053624.0) indicating this to be the case, and also, it looks kind of obvious, anyways. The names are nearly the same, and the business models look the same, and the real team is unknown. If you run one of those websites for reviewing scams, please add this one before they manage to start up again (if people are that stupid).

They probably are scammers judging from that awful fake interview video they have on the homepage. You can tell it was set up by a marketer because it is full of meaningless buzzwords, at least the ones you can understand from the slurred words. Good find.

The site is similar and the names of people are different, so far I can not accuse them of being created by the same person. the CEO have a name of baseball player, Business development manager has a restaurant name and Developer Team Grothendieck Manager has a actor name. ;D

The ONLY Willin keilh on the planet is the one with EtcTrade. Looks like they bastardize William Kiehl. They forgot to change the name Alan McSherry to Willin Keilh (or William Kiehl or Mickey Mouse). TBC, there is no fuckin Willin or William as a Developer Team Grothendieck Manager.

Further, I have Charles Hoskinson's personal phone number, thus WILL BE giving him a call to make him aware that somebody is using his bio. Look for him to weigh in on this thread.

We are going to be working with our lawyers on an official response to them so that we can have this information removed.

Cryp Trade Capital Ltd.: BaFin prohibits unauthorised banking business and orders winding-up

PrintShare content
Date:03.08.2017
As of 4 April 2017, the Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht - BaFin (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority) issued a cease and desist order against Cryp Trade Capital Ltd., Alicante, Spain, which was engaged in unauthorized banking business, to immediately stop those banking activities in Germany, and ordered the immediate winding-up of said business.

Cryp Trade Capital Ltd. operates the trading platform www.cryp.trade, where bitcoins and other instruments are traded which quantify as Rechnungseinheiten (units of account) within the meaning of § 1 (11) sentence 1 no. 7 of the Kreditwesengesetz (Banking Act; hereinafter being referred as such as “KWG”) and also as financial instruments within the meaning of the KWG. The platform is also directed at customers in Germany. Since the operator of the platform purchases and sells the units of account in its own name but for the account of customers, the service qualifies as Finanzkommisionsgeschäft (financial commission business) which is considered as banking business and thereby as banking business pursuant to § 1 (1) sentence 2 no. 4 of the KWG. In Germany, this kind of service is subject to an authorisation requirement pursuant to § 32 (1) of the KWG. Cryp Trade Capital Ltd., as the operator of the platform, does not have the required authorisation.

The BaFin orders are immediately enforceable by law.

Interesting, this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7Yxe2js-D0


the guy says they have a license to work in all countries, They also disabled comments


He speaks as if it were very easy to make trade and how to make trade a guaranteed profit every day.


High investment = high risk. The person should look for returns of 1 or 5% per week for example if he trade with 100BTC then he would be struggling to get returns of 1% or 5% for weeks.


In those last two months many altcoins fell more than 50% and these guys did not reduce their daily interest.

 who invested in siacoin 2 months ago, bought siacoin when it was in the 700 satoshi and today siacoin is worth less than 190 satoshi and I doubt that it will return to 700 satoshi, they are running ponzi scheme

In the video he speaks Spanish and for me the site appears in French despite having several languages as an option.

I'd say them BitConnect Investards are 'bout to lose it all. HAHAHA

This dude - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7xkttxQy8w - goes into great detail in depicting how it's not important to know who the creator of BitConnect is, but never touches on the fact that BitConnect was registered as a legal entity. Given that a nym - Ken Fitzsimmons - was used as its CEO et al., that fact alone makes BitConnect a nefarious actor in this space, initially designed specifically to garner trust from the community. That, and BitConnect has yet to LEGALLY file required paperwork by its 2017 anniversary.

Do you want to travel to India?

Take care when traveling to india or some third world country like my country, unfortunately Countries like India are full of corruption and the judicial system only benefits the rich or the elites




in one way or another we will make them pay for all the damage they are doing to the community

We can not say they are scammers, at least for now.


Now I'm wondering if Vitaly Ipatov has any affiliation with BitConnect. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!

If this connection were proven it would surely make a huge noise in this thread and other social networks. I see many people trust this site BitConnect and Cryp Trade Capital


Given that I'm one to not make noise, fuck it! Let's make some noise:

I'd say them BitConnect Investards are 'bout to lose it all. HAHAHA

This dude - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7xkttxQy8w - goes into great detail in depicting how it's not important to know who the creator of BitConnect is, but never touches on the fact that BitConnect was registered as a legal entity. Given that a nym - Ken Fitzsimmons - was used as its CEO et al., that fact alone makes BitConnect a nefarious actor in this space, initially designed specifically to garner trust from the community. That, and BitConnect has yet to LEGALLY file required paperwork by its 2017 anniversary.

There is another Ken Fitzsimmons: http://www.thekissers.com/bios/2016/1/24/ken-fitzsimmons

Ken Fitzsimmons grew up in Whitewater, Wisconsin, ...

Whitewater, Wisconsin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitewater,_Wisconsin), has a population of 14,517 (14,518 if theymos still lived there).

And once when BitConnect has run its course, Zuflo Coins (http://www.peoplehelp.club/) will take its place given that they share the same content (ToS).

has a clear definition of ponzy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme)


If a company has an affiliate system and reward their users with money to attract new costumers ( at least in UK) they will be flagged at piramidal scheme

we tried to open something similar and to do something legal at least you need 50k as a warranty to pay costumers back (FCA rules) in case of a bank will be 1.5m pounds

open a company is not that easy, open a website yes.



edited:  of course we give up due lack of funds and skilled people, maybe you could do some profits for a month but an investment platform requires loads of job. 99% of the legal investment companies doesnt assure you any profit

Gleb Gamow VS BitConnect

START

http://www.sympato.ch/smileys/SW.gif



all these sites are very active in Asia... they do a lot of conferences in Asia and all the videos they post on youtube they put a song so that you can not hear what they say At conferences. this becomes very annoying

The other day i had to spend many minutes watching their video in the hope that at some point the music would disappear and I would finally hear what they are saying.


...

You can have a lot of evidence, the problem in countries like India is corruption, if these guys have been doing this for years, they must already be very wealthy and very influential in society, you just need to be very rich and influential to be untouchable

The first time I stumbled on this site, I was almost giving it a consideration because the site was so well designed and even supported. What saved me was just asking for reviews on Google and that was it. Anybody who falls for all this scams is because of either greediness or laziness to make research which will later burn hands. Whether ETCtrade and ETHtrade are the same, it does not matter because I wont even be checking it out. They are all scams all together.

Hey guys, I apologize if this is in the wrong format or if Etctrade has already been brought to the forum's attention. I just found out about it, myself.

Basically, Etctrade (https://etcbank.io/) is founded by the same people as Ethtrade, and therefore a scam. I have information from a previous investigation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2053624.0) indicating this to be the case, and also, it looks kind of obvious, anyways. The names are nearly the same, and the business models look the same, and the real team is unknown. If you run one of those websites for reviewing scams, please add this one before they manage to start up again (if people are that stupid).

Truly this site is a scam and same format with ethtrade the staff are actors and actresses. So much Lesson learned from ethtrade scam so it should be never and never again to be a victim of this ponzi site. Maybe they are considering that still lots of  innocent people our there that do not know about ethtrade.org scam or just new to bitcoin and ethereium investing so thats why they are promoting this 2nd site so that again they can victimize a lot more. We should alert everybody of this site.
