SIGNAL SHEET

- Flagged by: IOSCO I-SCAN (Alberta – Alberta Securities Commission)
- Status: Reported / on watchlist
- Risk level: High
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
- Withdrawals are delayed, then blocked behind a ‘tax’, ‘anti-money-laundering’ or ‘fraud-score’ fee.
- 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.
If you have already engaged
The most important step now is to stop the bleed and document. Do not pay a ‘release fee’ – that is the same scam wearing a second mask. Gather your evidence and let a real team assess the trail.
