I am meeting Detective Mok from Central police station at 5pm (09:00 GMT).  The information I will give him is as follows.  Is there anything I have missed?



Company name: HKCEx
HKCEx is a registered trademark of MG Foreign Exchange Limited. CR.No 1979508. MSO Licence # 14-02-01350
 
Company address:
HKCEx
Belcher's Street, 56
Sai Wan, Hong Kong
 
MG Foreign Exchange address:
MG Tower on 133 Hoi Bun Rd. Kowloon
 
The web site owner’s details are obscured by privacyprotect.org (Queensland, Australia) I believe this company is being used to cover the fraud.  Privacyprotect is used to stop web site owners receiving junk mail, they say that they take illegal use very seriously, however they have not taken my allegation seriously.  Maybe they will take you more seriously.
 
To avoid hacking, they have hosted the site with cloudflare.com . They set this up after the problems started, adding weight to the case that they were hacked and not stealing money.  Cloudflare should have customer details on record, but again aren’t very willing to share information.
 
People:
Pheng Cheah (CEO)
Peng Tsou (Director)
Mr. Liang
Mr. Gang Fu
Chi Xu (Financial department)
Orlando James (Tech support)
Lavin Lam (Head of Marketing and PR)

Latest update:
VNET is a company that have set up hosting services with Sunny Vision on behalf of HKCEx.

When I (CaptainClaw) contacted Sunny Vision and informed them of HKCEx's fraud, they took down HKCEx's server.


VNET have provided the following address:
Quote
Room 1408, 15F, SPA Centre, 53-55
Lockhart road
Wanchai
Hong Kong

We cannot verify if this address is accurate as VNET did not verify addresses.

VNET has this address from HKCEX's paypal information, but anyone with a prepaid card can setup a paypal account and enter fake information.

Domain was set up at Sunny Vision data centre in HK using the email address: vnet@live.jp

Please keep us in touch..
I'm very sorry I've started this topic. I've lost all my BTC as others

Bitcoinnews.hk just told me they're going to check it out.

I am meeting Detective Mok from Central police station at 5pm (09:00 GMT).  The information I will give him is as follows.  Is there anything I have missed?

Looks accurate from the information we have been able to obtain

Just one thing, MG Foreign Exchange Limited have denied any connection to HKCEx according to technode:

However, the MSO license number 14-02-01350, which is previously shown in the company’s website, is registered by heavy metal exchange MG Foreign Exchange Limited and a reader who claimed to have visited MG in Hong Kong said the company denied to have any relationship with HKCEx.

Hi all,

Some pictures taken at the below address this morning.
15F, SPA Centre, 53-55, Lockhart road, Wanchai, Hong Kong

The address is a business service company called Taka (http://www.takaici.com/index.html), who help people setup/register company, receive mail, provide meeting room etc.
Asked the reception, she answered that she didn’t find the company called HKCEx.

Thanks for the update!

Looks like the paypal address was a dead end, so the name (lavin lam) is also probably fake.

However it's possible they registered at Taka but with a different company name.

Yeah, thanks a lot indeed!

Although, this is getting a bit frustrating, I am pretty certain that if we keep digging something useful will surface. Lavin Lam might be fake, this address might be fake, but people setting up fake stuff, are frequently connected somehow to their fake stuff. In most cases they don't keep it a 100% random.

I dunno if Paypal is willing to help in a Bitcoin related case, but I wonder how the account was funded!?

Interesting read, thanks. How can a person (or a group) setup a company with a fake address and license and no one verified them? They even lied about raising huge amount of capital form reputable banks and no one found out?

These scammers must have planned this for a long time and probably have done it before. Someone should cross check the info from the other scams in Hong Kong and China. May be there is a link...

Interesting read,

Intersting? Pathetic I'd say. Coindesk is a guilty as all the other BTC "news" websites that were promoting HKCex when they allegedly raised $2m in funds. Now after WEEKS since it has been a confirmed scam they come up with such an article. Any average blogger (I don't wanna call these guys journalists) must have recognized that HKCex was a fake from the start.

[pletharoe]

Detective Mok was very interested and keen to investigate this case although he is quite new to bitcoin he seemed to grasp the concept.

Please can we provide more leads for him.  e.g. paypal addresses etc.  I will pass them on.

[CaptainClaw]

VNET, the company providing Virtual Private Servers to HKCEx, has provided the following information:

This is HKCEX.NET With us Last Trading Information .


PayPal email of HKCEx
Name: Leny Aragon (sender of this payment is Non-US - Verified)
E-mail: webcom@gmail.com

Address seems to be related to several scams on the internet, some of the links are NSFW so I'll just post the info:

Hello everybody.

I want to share with you about my bad experience with one seller.

He calls himself - Andrew Stacherz
his email - andsta340@gmail.com

paxum:

He does have a good scam going.
He pays for 3 months of hardlinks for sellers and charges for 12 from buyers.
Or he can get money and nothing do!
He also lies about ownership of sites that are not his.

I just became one of his victims.

=============

his company name is - Shibaru LLC Inc.
or she - Perlita Castro, Leny Aragon

=============

he is a well known scammer, he has been doing this shit for years - Ruel Fulleros aka dFaWebmaster. He has scammed hundreds. he comes to this board again and again with mutliple nicks.

(rest cut, google "webcom@gmail.com scam" and you'll find it)

Danny Lee from South China Morning Post would like to hear from people about this.

The article was published today in (possibly) the largest newspaper in HK / Southern China.  The police are still investigating.  Anyone who hasn't already should contact them and report their loss.  Detective Mok is investigating.

My coins have moved too today, interesting.

As for 20 million coins, you might be crazy - there isn't any wallet that big.

What was your original deposit address for HKCEx?

Also that's total received, could be cold storage for a large exchange (btc-e?)

[ragi]

This LVLFYvL4UTepk8cHrw4ENUp6RsgMM6ck2n

Check it. Maybe I did something wrong

Looks like btc-e cold storage.. they're probably selling the coins. (or maybe OKCoin?)

Can anyone who speaks russian contact btc-e and ask them? Their english isn't great.

Coins went from here:

http://ltc.blockr.io/address/info/LVLFYvL4UTepk8cHrw4ENUp6RsgMM6ck2n

Combined into 500 LTC with other coins

http://ltc.blockr.io/tx/info/11131743f61f7d7e8f0666d210fe521e037f052aea843c21fee2e94b6865cd21

Transfered here and combined into 1000 LTC

http://ltc.blockr.io/address/info/LQi6JDe3NUTtjpQ1kdGyAjFmjUs5aD75Xo

Then transferred into this wallet that seems to spread coins into multiple large wallets:
