We are observing multiple communities that attract new investors by claiming to trade on behalf of them and promise stable returns. Investors are asked to transfer Bitcoin and are often kept updated solely via screenshots. We strongly advice against participating in such schemes for the following reasons:

• We offer a Copy Trader system that allows to copy another trader without needing to send Bitcoin directly.
• The "trusted" trader could lose your investment or disappear at any time.
• Screenshots and other account information can be manipulated and investors have no possibiliby to find out how their investment is really performing.
• The "trusted" trader's account can be overtaken by hackers due to weak knowledge of IT security.

The case of ZiangFaith

A few days ago, we received multiple messages asking us about the account ZaingFaith. We also received more than five emails from different addresses claiming to be the legit account owner and stating that the email address used for 1Broker has been overtaken by an attacker. Later we found out that this account was used to trade on behalf of multiple investors (see above).

We immediately blocked this account to avoid further damages. Unfortunately and although best efforts, we were not able to find out who the original account owner is and therefore decided to transfer the account to Christine Benedicto, a participant/victim, who helped us in this process in the past days. She has a much better insight into this community and it will be her responsibility to act in the best interest of this trading group. Withdrawals are locked until we receive the confirmation from Christine and other members of the community.

Since multiple investors are affected by this incident, it is our responsibility to share some basic information of this account:
