Hi, new on the forum.
I’ve been invited to invest in some cryptocurrency in the web indicated in the subject. I think is a fraud. There is not enough information in the web, and its links do not work.
Any experience or comment?
Thanks.
M.

I checked. It was not long before the exchange was launched. And I didn't get enough information on their website. Domain registration date is one month old. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Domain:cointop-change.com Registrar:PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Registered On:2019-09-04 Expires On:2020-09-04 Updated On:2019-09-04 Status:clientTransferProhibited Name Servers:safedns.earth.orderbox-dns.com safedns.mars.orderbox-dns.com safedns.mercury.orderbox-dns.com safedns.venus.orderbox-dns.com

Thanks for your cooperation.
From my point of view, the most suspicious thing is that all links at the end of the page are not working (they simply not work, or redirect to the front page; even the mail contact does not work...).
Thanks again.

It's a scam exchange. Web content is even copied from https://www.bitz.top/Do not accept to invest in their platform. It's so awesome you took time to inquire from the community.

Thanks so much for your information. Yes, there are similarities. One more piece of information to think it's a scam page. M.

Hey Guys,
I just found out that my brother has invested money on this trading platform, I checked it out and it looks like the issue with links being broken seems to have been fixed. Is there any other ways to verify the validity of this trading platform?
Thanks for all the help guys, don't know much about the crypto world, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
V.

cointop-change. com seems to be redirecting to https: //baofeidyz .com/ Definitely a scam.

Hey Guys, sorry my bad, just realized you guys where talking about cointop-change.com, the trading platform i am referring to is https://ctop-global.org. He purchased something called DCS under USDT. He was told it was still an internal purchase only, you have to be given an invite code to purchase it. Hope this info helps. Thanks V.

Thanks for the info,
So the whole situation is my brother met this girl online, they have been dating for a month,and she convinced him to invest in DCS. She says that her Dads friend uses this currency within his company. He invested about 5k cad, so i spoke with him and I guess the thing he cares about most is whether the girl herself is in on a scam or a victim herself.
I told him to tell her that he does not have any more cash to invest, this girl said that's ok, she can lend him some money if he needed. On this site you have to buy DCS with bitcoin, so she ended up sending him 5k in bitcoin which shows up on his account after he gave her the bitcoin account address.
He uses shakepay to buy bitcoin and send it over to DCS, so my question is, if he can take that 5k worth of bitcoin sitting in his account on ctop-global.org and transfer it to his shake pay account and convert that to actual cad, then maybe he can get some money back?
What do you guys think?
Thanks again
V.

so after i asked for the withdraw, i emailed them asking how long it would take, and got this answer.....
Dear Member The platform will process the application within 24 hours after the application is withdrawn. In order to ensure the safety of funds, the withdrawal funds will be transferred to the BTC address of the last recharge.
Ctop Global
Then my brother said his gf got an email saying 5k was returned to her account.
so this proved nothing....

I'm sure "she" "received" it. First of all , has he met her in real life ? Or is this all via "facebook"?

Yea, he hasn't met her in real life. They talk everyday and some times video chat. But that is it.
So this whole ordeal proved nothing....

So now they are saying
respected user
After the first successful operation, future withdrawals will be transferred to the address you filled in
CTop Global
So based on what they are saying, if i test this again, it should go to the address i specified this time...
