Description

While initially looking for stock trade signal and option trade signal services, I am across this ad on Facebook that offered exactly that (Facebook will do its best to show you "relevant" ads once you searched once for it). It was a WhatsApp group, signal trade alerts. At first those alerts were on the stock exchange and were highly succesful. Clearly to build trust. Over time, the signals "moved" to crypto and their own token "STRO", which was bound to triple or more-fold in the forseeable future. Their STRO token was launched on the "SLOGEM" crypto exchange, which is clearly in on the scam, or it is theirs. Having bought the token, they then started alerting crypto futures contract trade signals. A lot of "people" in the group (who are probably all in the scam), posted screenshots of 100%+ gains per trade signal. Eventually, when the stock market took a bit of a dive, they focussed hard on motivating people to sell their stock assets and move it all to the crypto exchange to buy more STRO tokens and be able to trade with larger numbers, creating larger profits. All the crypto they traded is nowhere to be found on any other trading platform: CITADEL, ECHO and SIGIL. All fake crypto. If you ever want to take out / withdraw funds, you receive a message that says something like "Frequent transfers detected, to protect this user's assets, please try again in 7 days." In other words, you are never able to take out your funds again. Important to be published along with the scam information would be all the names of the "people" that run this scam, which are of course all fake names. In the group they go by: Gregorty Hawthorne, or Mr WiseOwl. Mr Adrian Merritt or Mr On-Chain Hunter. Their "manager" Sophia Marlowe.
