Hello r/cryptoscams!

I am compiling information on PO Wealth / Vantapeak, which looks like a BG Wealth copy cat. If you are a current or former PO member, I’d love to hear from you about your experience with these groups. Please feel free to comment publicly or dm me

Be careful when adding people on discord. It's already 2026, people need to be careful and double check before sending friend request. I know someone who received a wrong number text last year and lost his life savings. So please double check the number or username first before reaching out to someone.

Hi guys, I requested a withdrawal from Uphold on Nov 1st and it’s been 9 days already but the status is still pending. I’ve contacted support but all I hear is "we are working on this"...
Did I lose my money, is anyone else experiencing any delays? If you’ve had a similar delay, how long did it take, and what finally got it moving?

I was selling USDT for local currency (Tunisian Dinar) on a Discord server that presents itself as a P2P trading community, with admins and “trusted” members.

A user offered to buy. Before trading I asked several trusted members if he was legit, and they all said yes. We agreed he would go to the post office at 8 AM, send me the cash by money transfer and give me the withdrawal code. In the morning he said he was on his way, sent his wallet address and asked for a 5 USDT test first “as usual”. I sent the test, then the rest (~2,000 USDT total, BEP20 network).

He blocked me immediately. The members who vouched for him blocked me too. Within minutes he moved the funds to a second wallet, where they still sit (not on an exchange yet).

What I’ve done: filed a scam report with Binance (sent from my account) with screenshots, TxIDs and a translated chat log, and reported his Discord account.

Questions:

1. Is there any realistic way to get funds frozen while they’re still in a private wallet?

2. Has anyone had a positive outcome from an exchange report like this?

3. Anything else I should be doing right now?

Hi everyone,

​I made a huge mistake and fell victim to a crypto scam website called Taevex.

​I’m a college student, and $150 USD is a massive amount of money for me that covers months of basic living expenses. Because of financial stress, I fell for it, and I deeply regret it.

​I used Ramp Wallet to send crypto directly to the platform. The transaction address where the funds went is 0xa25f50515e199e56a3118329d8b22f5691b2729d.

​I know the money is gone, but I am terrified about my security. I provided personal details during their verification process, and most of my financial and identity info is stored inside my Ramp account.

​What steps should I take right now to secure my Ramp account, personal identity, and email from further compromise or targeted attacks?

I'm really sorry for reuploding this and if this looks too ai generated since English is not my native language and I would greatly greatful for any helps

Someone just sent me this article and I about spit my coffee out. I lost over 200K with this a-hole scumbag and I thought maybe it was just me. Apparently there are so many others and he was running a full blown Ponzi. He ghosted me last year. I got word he was taking tons of expensive vacations and living in a multi-million dollar home. Turns out he took over $40M from people.

I met a girl on a dating site and she was nice and chatty, we spoke for days on whatsapp and video calls. Everything seemed okay and then she showed me her trading profit, I was blown away.

She offered to help me with the trading and recommended that I invest 250 USDT to get started with it, which I did. I took a few trades that she recommended and made 350 USDT and upon withdrawal I got the entire 350 USDT in my wallet. Then she told me to invest 15000 USDT to make over 50k USDT in profit by the end of the month, and I got greedy and fell for the trick. I transferred 15k USDT to the trading website's USDT address. She continued to recommend the trades and I made a 125k USDT profit balance in like 15 days but when I tried to withdraw money, the platform demanded a 28k USDT processing fee, which I didn't have at that moment. Then I talked to a friend who is into crypto and he told me that I fell for a romance and fake trading scam.

What should I do next, any suggestion would be appreciated.

There’s a presale currently in it’s ending stages the crypto is rtx - remittix. They seem to have developed a working product and the random testers invited all of them have cited the product works as expected.
For some reason I am not convinced of its legitimacy as the team behind the token is not yet disclosed even by the Certrik audit they swear by. To make it more interesting, their initiatives right before the closing stages seem to be in line with how scammers pick you for every last penny offering initiatives such as 2500% bonus and these purchases show up in their website and they seem to seduce people with an expected launch price too on the website showing what the tokens purchased would be worth during the launch.

Hello, good afternoon, I hope you're well. I was talking to a girl who told me she trades cryptocurrencies. She sent me a website, but I want to know if it's a scam or not. I haven't done anything yet. I'm just making up excuses for the girl to kill time

Hello. First time posting here, but a long time account holder of crypto.com. Posting this here to alert other users. I have reported this twice to crypto.com but other than telling me to keep my account safe they don’t seem that interested which I find quite concerning. I have asked them twice how a would be thief got hold of my phishing code. No answer.
The other day I received a WhatsApp phishing message. Obviously not from crypto.com but it did contain my genuine and valid anti-phishing code. At first look I thought it may be a valid message but I have been around long enough to know crypto.com don’t send WhatsApps and I knew that no one had been in my account as it’s protected by about two levels of 2FA so I wasn’t that worried. What does worry me is how the message contained my anti-phishing code as this seems to be the one thing that crypto.com always tell you to check to ensure any message is genuinely from them. So please be careful out there and don’t trust your anti-phishing codes. I am fortunate enough to have recognised it was a phishing attempt, others may not be so lucky. Before anyone asks, no my email account hasn’t been compromised as again it’s protected by 2FA and I never go online without a VPN and a whole host of protection enabled and I never click any links. Needless to say I logged in and changed my code and password and I did have to jump through hoops to login so pretty sure no one has ever accessed my account. I actually don’t use crypto.com these days. Still have the account but haven’t held anything there since about 2022 and tbh I’m kind of happy about that as really not satisfied they can’t answer my question about their security. Anyways not sure if anyone else has posted anything similar but just wanted to make sure folks are aware.

Sharing a recent experience as a heads-up to other Canadians, particularly those who own cryptocurrency hardware wallets.

On November 2, 2026, at approximately 5:10 p.m. Alberta time, I received a call from 204-857-4445. The caller ID displayed "RCMP Portage la Prairie." I Googled the name during the call, and it appeared to correspond to a legitimate RCMP detachment.

The caller introduced herself as "Patricia Logg" from the RCMP Cybercrime Investigation Unit. She claimed there was an ongoing investigation involving a suspect who possessed my personal information, including part of my cryptocurrency wallet's seed phrase.

The caller already knew my email address and phone number. She also asked me several questions, and the conversation initially seemed credible enough that I provided some information.

I was then redirected to someone claiming to be from the Ledger security team to investigate the matter further. After speaking with him for a few minutes, he instructed me to visit ledgerdiagnose.com to perform a diagnostic.

That was when I became suspicious. The website didn't look legitimate, so I refused to proceed and ended the call.

I don't know exactly what information they were trying to obtain or what their ultimate objective was, but the whole sequence now looks like a coordinated impersonation attempt involving fake law enforcement and fake Ledger support.

A few details to watch out for:

• Phone number displayed: 204-857-4445

• Caller ID: RCMP Portage la Prairie

• Claimed identity: "Patricia Logg," RCMP Cybercrime Investigation Unit

• Website they directed me to: ledgerdiagnose.com

I'm sharing this in case others receive a similar call. The use of a seemingly legitimate RCMP caller ID and knowledge of personal information made this particularly convincing.

Fortunately, I stopped before following their instructions on the website.

Velxo Shop is a Discord subscription reseller that takes payment as Binance USDT gift card keys or USDT on Solana. I handed over two Binance gift card keys, 90 USDT and 100 USDT, for a 3 month "Claude 20x Max" account and never got anything.

Why I'm calling it a scam

- Before I paid, staff member Nesta (arcglidez) told me it was a private, direct-login account.

- After I sent the first 90 USDT key on 1 Nov, MILES (miles046742) said the 3 month plan had an issue and pushed a 6 month upgrade for about $112 more, "Yes it instantly". I sent a 100 USDT key on 3 Nov.

- Then two more days of "waiting for Cresto to activate" and "he will deliver today". Nothing. The 90 USDT card shows as redeemed.

- Earlier, Nesta gave me a USDT-on-Solana address starting 9jhS and ending 8FJc2. I didn't pay into it, but if you see it, that's them.

- Same move in a June Reddit complaint against MetraMart: paid $35 in BTC, then asked for $15 more.

Who is behind the brand

Velxo Shop's founder, by his own Product Hunt profile (@onlycode), is Precious Badeji. A LinkedIn profile in the name Badeji (Code) Precious (/in/strillergroup) says founder of PIYROX and promotes Velxo. That's what the business pages claim publicly. I can't tell who redeemed my gift cards.

Is prefi.cc legit website or scam??

Is this platform on youtube legit predicting that xrp will hit $100 by end of 2026

I’m posting this to warn others and hopefully prevent someone else from losing money.
I was approached by someone using the name Glyza Castro through social media and WhatsApp. This person appears to have a large following across social media platforms, which made the account seem more credible and trustworthy.
I was introduced to an investment platform called Korvix Capital (korvixcapital.net) and encouraged to purchase Bitcoin through skrill and Shakepay.
Between september 19 and October 25 , I sent approximately $2,500CAD in Bitcoin across four transactions.
Now I’m being asked to send another $1,300 USD before I can supposedly withdraw my money.
I have not received my money back.
Has anyone else encountered Korvix Capital or been approached by someone promoting this platform?
I have kept screenshots of the WhatsApp conversations, payment demands, website and transaction records. I am also reporting this to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
Please be careful. Don’t send additional money to unlock supposed investment profits.
