GreenTrade24: Disreputable affirmations
What do the surprised visitors have to receive on www.greentrade24.net? "Since its establishment in 2011, GreenTrading24 has evolved from a service provider for the financial industry to a specialized asset manager...As a regulated financial service provider, we offer our clients a specialized service in asset management...Our company is managed by the owners...Therefore, we are independent and free in our decisions." This is only a small part of the questionable affirmations that prospective customers find on the website of GreenTrade24. Not one of these noble assurances of GreenTrade24 was redeemed. Unfortunately, the dubious business practices rather provide for disappointed investors and bad experiences!

GreenTrade24: Hide-and-seek game with the Domain entry!
Remarkable for the business practices of the GreenTrade24 makers is that the website does not contain an imprint. Thus, the complete information about the legally responsible operators of the website is missing. If one throws a view of the Domain data of the web page of GreenTrade24, no references to the operators are to be found there. However, one learns that the domain was registered only on 10.09.2020 with PSI-USA, Inc. The real domain owners hide behind the Canadian anonymization service PrivateName Services Inc.

GreenTrade24: Who is behind it?
Answering this question will be rather difficult for many investors, as the GreenTrade24 makers do everything to conceal the true circumstances. However, this is nothing unusual. The perpetrators usually operate several of these websites with the same fraudulent business model. These are created in advance, quickly put online, and just as quickly shut down. The top-level domain is often changed to deceive financial regulators and law enforcement agencies. But who is the operator? On the website of GreenTrade24, there is only sparse information about this. Although the company GreenTrading24 Group with the business address 9103 Diex, Diex 204, Austria is given, the makers of GreenTrade24 cannot be found under this address. There is no obligatory support email address only the two US telephone numbers +19177322317 and +19177242867. The worldwide search for the GreenTrade24 in the relevant registers leads to no result. That clarifies that it concerns probably a pure fantasy product in this case.

GreenTrade24: The customer acquisition of the investment cheats
Here again and again the same proceeding is found: To win customers the offers of GreenTrade24 in all only conceivable media and channels are announced. Not infrequently, these are false promises. Furthermore, they upload videos on Youtube, in which interested investors are convinced with false references. Here, supposed celebrities report on their experiences with online trading and cryptocurrencies, often with a misleading reference to the TV show "Die Höhle der Löwen". At the same time, a mostly aggressive affiliate program is launched to motivate others to beat the advertising drum for GreenTrade24.

GreenTrade24: Criminal business practices
As soon as the customer has registered on the trading platform, he receives calls from alleged financial brokers who like to refer to their years of experience and their satisfied customer base. In many cases, however, the makers of this business model are fraudsters, against whom the Federal Criminal Police Office and the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) also warn. Usually, the investors start with a small sum as employment. Beforehand, investors are also often motivated to install remote maintenance software, such as AnyDesk or TeamViewer on their computers, so that assistance can supposedly be provided with the first steps. In many cases, the computer is subsequently manipulated and unwanted transactions are carried out. Investment fraudsters also frequently gain access to their victims' online banking in the process. What is particularly criminal, however, is when supposed profits are displayed on the trading platform to entice the customer to place further high stakes. In some cases, even small sums are returned to lull investors into a sense of security. Who then does not want to further increase the stakes? But what happens next?

GreenTrade24: Repayment of the money is attached to conditions
Once in, an exit is mostly impossible. Rather, the administrators of the investment scammers tie the repayment of the money to further deposits. This is where employees come in, claiming alleged tax debts and commission payments. If these are settled, it would come to the disbursement of the allegedly obtained profits. The perpetrators send the investors self-made tax and commission statements, often decorated with fake coats of arms. These would have to be paid urgently. A clearing with the allegedly obtained profits is never possible. If an investor refuses further deposits, alleged profits are converted by senseless transactions into losses and the customer is maximally damaged. This is not the end of the horror, but investors are permanently confronted with calls from other dubious providers. This indicates that the contact details of the investors are further traded among the investment fraudsters. In the end, a "savior" regularly comes forward, claiming to have uncovered the whole scam. He impresses with his insider knowledge. No wonder, since he is part of the fraud gang. The next rip-off! And of course, the "savior" wants a small fee - in advance!
