Seeing the investor rush, the company‘s founder roped in social media influencers and financial experts to promote the platform and the massive amount people can make through it. Whether it’s YouTube, Instagram or any other platforms, these influencers and experts hyped BotBro through aggressive promotions. It led to massive public appeal, resulting in increased investments. BotBro even promised investors that they would receive SUVs, luxury trips, and elite investor status. It made them invest more.
It can’t be said with certainty. But it was certain that they didnt have any financial background. So, making tall return promises on behalf of BotBro does make them guilty. They were paid a hefty sum for aggressive promotions.
Like most scammers do, BotBro used investors’ money to create shell or dummy companies. Gradually, they started defaulting on the promises, trapping investors and their money.
As the new investor count started dropping because of the payment default, FIRs were getting registered against BotBro. The Enforcement Directorate took cognizance of the FIRs and cracked down on BotBro by carrying out multiple raids at its offices across Noida, Delhi, Shamli and Rohtak. The raid exposed the shell companies that ran through investors’ money. They were used for money laundering activities.
The ED has attached assets worth INR 170 crore. It identified and froze 30 bank accounts. It also seized INR 90 lakh cash during the raids.
Remember, the forex market does not offer guaranteed returns no matter the promises the trading platform may offer. Prices fluctuate every second, minute and hour of the day. Yes, returns remain substantial if you stay invested for the long term using smart forex trading strategies. However, even with that, an annual return of 60% may not be possible. Expect a maximum of 20% to be realistic. Even with that, you can earn a massive amount over time. The power of compounding takes effect.
Trade with only those brokers who are registered by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Also, examine whether the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has permitted them for forex trading. Reputed brokers will always have the SEBI registration on their official website. The RBI maintains a list of authorized and unauthorized forex brokers on its website.
