[Social tour] I investigated FX fraud
There is a trap in the sweet story.
“Automatic trading system with monthly interest of 20% provided by professional traders!“
“If you compound interest of 500,000 yen, it will turn into about 1.5 million yen in half a year and about 4.5 million yen in a year!“
“See! Here’s a screenshot!“
“If you don’t start now, the lost profits will be huge!”
If it is written like this,
“Huh? Can you make money by buying and selling FX automatically?”
“If this were true, then six months later, the money problem might have been completely resolved!”
“As far as I can see the screenshot, it looks like it’s true …”
You may end up with this kind of feeling.
As far as I checked on SNS etc. earlier, it seems that there were many people who actually fell into the above psychological state and poured money into the automatic trading system.
However, Respect for the Aged Day, September 21, 2020.
In a certain automatic trading system, a big incident occurred in which almost all the money poured was lost.
There are many users who swallowed tears, and it seems that a “victims’ association” has now been formed …
There is a trap in the sweet story.
Perhaps this idiom “truely” sticks in my heart after I’ve been caught in the trap.
Perhaps it was a big incident that happened on Respect for the Aged Day.
It’s unclear if it was really a possible loss on a trader’s investment transaction, or if a fraudulent group ran away from the ducks with the money they had saved.
However, looking at the coldness of the comments made by the operator of the automatic trading system, it does not feel like the former.
The automatic trading system is like an outburst, so let’s call it “Bomber”.
“God”, which is an automatic trading system different from “Bomber”, seems to have been observing a monthly profit of about 20% from January of this year to the present.
At present, I couldn’t hear any comments on the internet that the loss was incurred or the appearance of the loss, so let’s call it “God”.
* However, it was probably in August that “God” appeared on the net. Users have been appearing on SNS since the beginning of September.
If you can really achieve a monthly profit of 20%, it will well exceed the annual profit of 20% produced by Warren Buffett, who is famous as the god of investment.
Isn’t it the same at 20% for both?
There is a difference between monthly interest and annual interest as much as heaven and earth. When the monthly interest rate of 20% is recalculated into the annual interest rate, it reaches about 900%.
It produces a profit margin of 45 times that of the god of investment. It is safe to say that it easily surpasses God. If the monthly interest is really 20%.
back to the topic.
Users who were ruined by “Bomber” heard rumors about “God” and began to pour their money into “God”.
Now, “God” users will be seeing numbers increasing day by day with a big smile.
People don’t learn.
Now, let’s get into the main subject.
The author was invited to this “God”.
I think there is a better way to use it than throwing away the money I’ve saved, so I did a lot of research from the shallow part to the extent possible “without participating”.
as a result,
“God” is endlessly suspicious …
I came to think.
Let’s talk a little about how I came to think that way.
First of all, many people who participate in “God” will stand at the entrance of the swamp by registering a LINE account on the homepage.
By registering a LINE account, you can talk with a scammer (temporary) who skillfully manipulates words through the screen.
In general, homepages that handle some kind of information products often contain descriptions based on the Specified Commercial Transactions Law. It’s valuable information, so if you suspect fraud, you might want to check it first.
The following is an excerpt of the notation based on the Specified Commercial Transactions Law of “God”. Information that can identify a company or an individual is hidden here. Let’s point out the points that seem strange even if you think lightly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Notation based on the Act on Specified Commercial Transactions
↑
In In the original Japanese description, there is a strange word. Calibration mistake? The more you make mistakes from the beginning, the sweeter the legal consciousness can be glimpsed.
[Distributor name]
◯◯ Co., Ltd.
↑
When I looked it up, there were more than 200 corporations with the same name in Japan. If you are willing to operate under a proper philosophy, I don’t think you should choose a name that overflows with the same name. There is a strong suspicion of a paper company.
【location】
Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture ◯◯
↑
When I looked up this location on Google Maps, the wording ◯◯ Co., Ltd. was not displayed. The suspicion of a paper company is extremely strong.
【mail address】
xx@gmail.com
* Basically, please contact us on the official line at the bottom of the screen.
【phone number】
◯◯
* Please contact us after cutting the schedule on the official line at the bottom of the screen.
↑
Is it appropriate to write “schedule” in this entry field?
[Name of person in charge of operation]
◯◯
↑
When I searched on the net, I got a lot of hits. The Instagram account is noteworthy. There were many posts that seemed to make a lot of money with MLM. If the person in charge of operations is such a person, there is a high possibility that this “God” is also fraudulent or close to MLM.
[System provider]
◯◯ Co., Ltd.
↑
When I searched on the net, I found one hit. When you hear “a company that provides a system that produces 20% monthly profit,” it seems like “the strongest company.” It seems that we can secure enough funds, so the homepage will be outsourced and beautifully designed. However, it was actually a site like scraps. The representative’s e-mail address did not even exist (sent and verified) in the same notation, so it seems that there is not much external communication.
[Delivery of goods]
We will inform you by email or LINE.
↑
According to the guidance from the person in charge, it was said that there was no sales contract. However, “delivery” is conceived. Contradiction.
In addition, when “Hiki I” is written in Kanji in Hosei University terminology, it means “delivery”. Anyone who has learned the law should know that “ki” is unnecessary, so it can be inferred that the person who created it is not an attorney.
[Application expiration date]
Thank you within 10 days.
If 10 days have passed, it will be canceled.
↑
Is it within 10 days “from when”?
[Return]
We cannot accept returns regardless of the nature of the product or service.
Please note that the cooling-off system does not apply.
↑
There is a concept of returns even though there is no sales contract. What does that mean? Also, why is the cooling-off system not applied? Significant lack of consumer protection. No consideration is given to customers.
Also, there is no “.” After “I cannot accept”.
[About personal information]
We put your privacy first.
Your personal information will not be disclosed to third parties except as required by law.
↑
Don’t pretend to be a “wind” that cares for your customers. At the time of denying the application of the cooling-off system, there may be no consideration for customers.
[System operating environment]
PC or smartphone running MT4
Windows 7,8,10 or later
mac OSX 10,13 (high sierra) or later
[Notes on expressions and products]
This system does not guarantee future profits.
Since FX is a risky transaction, losses may occur due to sudden changes in the market price or the market environment.
Please note that we are not responsible for any loss or damage caused by using this tool.
↑
A common wording in such scams.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was able to point out most of it. It seems like a sloppy description. Perhaps the company that offers “God” doesn’t have the money to outsource to an attorney.
There is a strong suspicion that the actual situation of “monthly interest rate of 20%” is false.
In addition, “God” was shown to have a contract with a securities company called “Nobel”.
However, even if you normally search for “Nobel Securities Company”, there is no hit. So I searched for “novel fx”.
Then, it will move to this site (https://novel-fx.com). It may be interesting to look for something strange.
The hint is
・ “Setting” that this securities company is an overseas company
・ Wording in the note
・ At the bottom of the homepage
It is. You may easily notice something strange about this area.
By the way, the homepage of the system provider is strange. The securities company itself is full of strangeness.
Is this really an automated trading system that should be called “God”?
I will continue to explore the trends of “God” users.
If you’re right …
After all, there is a trap in sweet stories.
