How losses unfold
It moves from curiosity to commitment fast. A helpful ‘account manager’, a chart that only goes up, and a sense that stopping now would waste the gains. The gains are fictional; only the deposits are real.
Red flags on file
- You are asked to connect a wallet, install remote-access software, or share a seed phrase.
- The ‘account manager’ is friendly, always available, and always steering you toward another deposit.
- A dashboard shows large, steady profits that no real market produces on demand.
- Registration, address and ownership details are vague, borrowed or unverifiable.
