Title: Has Anyone Heard of Gildebitinvest?
Post by: Knavecoin on April 10, 2022, 04:31:24 PM
A friend has asked me to find out about this 'organisation' as she has Bitcoins in her account but it wont let her take it out?

Thanks for any info in advance.

I believe that you wanted to type Glidebitinvest[1]. If that was the case I fear that your friend was scammed and there is no way to recover the deposited funds (I say funds because I highly doubt that your friend has any BTC in her account - most likely they just added some digits to her BTC balance to "trick" her). The layout of the website is very similar to a set of websites that I've previously highlighted[2] as being scams due - but not limited - to advertising impossible returns in a very short period of time:

Scam. I've just did a really quick google search and here's what I've found:

There are a couple of websites that have the exact same content, they only change the name of the "company":
  • https://www.fxcryptogaints.com/ (https://www.fxcryptogaints.com/)
  • https://www.fxcryptogaints.com/ (https://www.fxcryptogaints.com/)
  • https://www.bizztrade.live/ (https://www.bizztrade.live/)

Almost all of them share ridiculous gains regarding crypto. Here's an example : If you deposited $5,000,000 you would get 17 % after just 48 hours. Do you realize how unsustainable that is? If you get around this percentage in two days, and if we assume we're dealing with top notch investors, we'll be looking at 510% profit at the end of the month (17% x 30 days) - again, not sustainable.

After seeing those shady plans made just to entice new people into falling in the scheme I didn't looked for any further for evidences regarding if they are legit or not - The only persons that are going to win money with these are/is whoever is running these couple of websites. The photoshop of the front of the building is also lame as a sheep.

OP - I hope you haven't put a lot of money into this, truth is you'll probably never be able to withdraw it. I would stop any kind of communication / deposit with any of these companies ASAP.

There are a ton of websites just like these OP and even though I've reported each one of them at the time it wasn't enough to make the domain owner shut down the website. If your friend is stuck in the infinite KYC/AML procedures or in the likely event that they keep asking her to send money to them so that they can "unlock" her balance, just tell her to stop whatever she is doing and assume the loss. Just look at their "Terms and Conditions" page[3] - it seems that it was written in a rush (and still manages to be pretentious) as it only states the following:

Glidebitinvest is totally different from its competitors trying to achieve something special starting with the website design, trading platform, and extremely functional. Since first beginning a few years ago, Glidebitinvest has created a name for itself between traders. The broker is magnificent for traders because of its solid mining /trading platform and a diversity of assets to invest/trade.

What exactly is the website name I could find on Google or the keyword is wrong?
Google suggested me this glidebitinvest.com but it seems the site is an investment site and it was registered in August 2021.

Also, notice it doesn't have a secured SSL or https://
So if that is the right domain name then your friend is being scammed.

It's scam

If you or your friend sends Bitcoins to such a website to invest for you while you are "sleeping" then chances are almost 100% that you will never get the money back.

They even forgot to edit out www.blockchestcapitals.com, another likely scam website that's now offline under the general questions

Thanks for the info it is most appreciated. I thought it was dodgy but need to see what others felt.

I believe it is rge same I found on Google as well. She is looking for past emails to show me.

It is a bit sketchy what she has told me but hopefully the emails she has will either confirm its a scam or they have some weird procedures in their organisation.

She will most probably receive another set of scam emails. Consider the email address at high risk and try not to connect another account with it. More about securing your emails here (https://github.com/Lissy93/personal-security-checklist#emails)

Well, if it's indeed the same Glidebitinvest, it's basically confirmed it's a scam with how their business model works. Guaranteed overly high returns isn't possible cause that would mean donating their money to their clients, every business has to earn.
