First I was sceptical but a friend convinced me to invest in BTC Tron, since he made a few bitcoin there. I tried it too and made 34% profit in 8 months till now. (I invested 3 bitcoin to begin with) It is a investment company founded 2 years ago and you can invest bitcoin anonymously. They have a facebookpage and contact goes via phone or email. Since they don't want many customors with small investments, they don't advertise but only get new (rich) clients via word-of-mouth. I thought that I had to share this with you, although I usually never make any topics.

Good luck!

This is btw the link to their page!

obvious scam is obvious.

you invest 3 bitcoin, yet they only want the rich people?

The company can pull off a profit over 34% yet the only web page is on facebook? They wanted to setup a "new website" Nov '13. Took them long enough. Maybe they cant handle the workload?

Maybe it's not  a scam, wait for others to confirm they invested with them and that it was fine working. They should have web page that is not based on FB.

Obvious scam IMO.
A hedge fund based in New York City and London, with no website, but with just a gmail and a FB page lol.

It is a scam, this is the image they use for their Facebook to look like they are professionals:

So from that we already know they are from Belgium.

nice find. If you check that users profile [1] he/she just posted the same post in different languages all over the board.
I find it funy that BTCTron.com is protected by GoDaddy[2] so you dont know how is behind it and redirects to PDMining with ?ref=BitcoinBarrel. If you search for BitcoinBarrel you will find they have a HP [3] as well as a FB page [4]. Most active users are from Jakarta so the likes are most likely bought. I might keep digging later Tongue
