CITIC SECURITTIES fake website, fake link! ! !

I met a man on IG who runs a decoration company in Hong Kong. He claims to be Taiwanese but has stayed in Hong Kong since he was a child. He first added my friend on IG, making me think that I was a friend of a friend, so I agreed to his invitation to be friends! After chatting online for a while, he started to mention the topic of investment! First it was stocks and then it was foreign exchange. He said that he had insider information in the bank and his professional judgment, and he could make 95% profit. At first, I was dubious and only made a small deposit and followed the order. After a few operations, I made a small withdrawal of 500u. The next day he asked me to ask customer service if there was any new activity, and it turned out that there was indeed an activity for new customers. He asked me to make an appointment with a gold member (if you deposit 50,000u, you will receive a gift of 5,888u). At first, I refused and said that I didn’t have that much spare money to spare. But he said he would help me and immediately put 10,000u in. I thought he had already put it in, so it should be fine! Later, he suggested that I borrow a loan to store value... and told me that he also had a loan, and he could withdraw it and pay it back after the activity was completed. After that, he helped me save another 10,000u. After the event was completed, there was indeed a gift. The man immediately asked me to withdraw 2000u, and I could actually withdraw it! But a few days later, I wanted to withdraw it myself but was blocked for a whole day. When I asked customer service, they said they wanted me to wait because there were so many people withdrawing! Now that I think about it, they should be operating behind the scenes...

The BYFX platform under CITIC Securities uses various reasons to ask customers to pay fees, and the reason is that the funds are frozen in the bank and the unfrozen funds are handed over. Just do not withdraw money to customers. This is a scam.

The fund is frozen and cannot be withdrawn

Hope to help me to solve the problem that fund does not arrive. It is a lesson. Do not trust others easily.

Unable to withdraw. Ask for money with various reasons

Unable to Withdraw

I was always required to pay a risk control fee before I can withdraw cash. Not withdrawing money for various reasons.

I met a businessman on the Internet who said he lived in Hong Kong. He expressed his affection for me at first and started teaching me how to make money and invest with him. He asked me to download the OKX, MAX app and then gave me a URL https:// cn.swtetup.com/h5/#/ After asking me to register an account, it said it was a foreign exchange account. At first, he asked me to swipe my card to recharge money to operate the foreign exchange difference, and I successfully withdraw cash into the account. Later, he thought that my principal was not large enough and the profit was too small, so he remitted NT$1 million and put it into my foreign exchange account and told me to make more money. Later, he asked me to collect the 1 million recharge gift from the customer service (after remitting the money, he asked me to ask the customer service for all the recharge gift at once). The next day, I felt something was wrong and I wanted to withdraw the money from my account and return it to him. At that time, I found that I couldn't withdraw the cash and I couldn't pay him back. The customer service explained that I had to complete the recharge bonus activity before I could cash it out successfully, which meant that I had to put in more funds to complete the activity before I could withdraw the cash. Later, inexplicably, my account was said to be frozen. The Hong Kong man also said that he would help me solve the problem together and put money into this foreign exchange account. Indeed, he also gave me his transfer information, and the money he transferred was also displayed in the foreign exchange account. I also transferred money into it just to complete the recharge activity successfully. withdraw! However, after completing the activity, withdrawals were still not allowed due to various reasons...

Withdrawals are only allowed after the payment of risk control funds and the achievement of tasks.

On IG, I met someone who claimed to be Taiwanese but stayed in Hong Kong. The person cultivated a relationship with you first, and then told you about investment channels. The person asked you to download some apps and let you start with small amounts of money. After a large amount of money is deposited, they refuse to allow withdrawals, claiming that the new user tasks have not been completed. If the tasks are not completed within the deadline, they will require payment of risk control fees and report credit defaults.

    在IG認識一個自稱台灣人但都待在香港，利用感情心理先跟你培養，在跟你說有投資管道，要你下載一些程式，然後讓你先小額跟著操作，之後大筆錢進入後，要出金卻說新人任務未達成無法出金，若沒有在期限內達成就會需要繳納風控金及通報信用不良

    中信证券旗下的佰益汇金融平台，客户交易成功后，以各种形式的借口阻止客户提现，诱导客户交费用，以资金金额过大，冻结在海外银行为借口，让客户缴纳资金解冻保护费，否则不予出金到账，没有那家银行解冻客户资金要交资金保护费的吧，这存在着很明显的诈骗，希望有关部门领导出面调查一下，以维护客户的正常权益！
