Liquidspro - FCA warns of successor organisation
Ostensible online broker Liquidspro sells itself as a decent platform for online trading. However, there is a lot of information that there are significant shortcomings with Liquidspro. More and more traders are coming forward talking about telephone terror, rip-offs and investment fraud at Liquidspro. Many have lost their capital invested with Liquidspro. Doubts are the order of the day. Meanwhile, many Liquidspro investors are worried that it is an investment scam. Liquidspro's website is still up and running. All traders of Liquidspro are asking themselves whether they have become victims of an investment fraud? And what can Liquidspro traders do if the suspicion of investment fraud is substantiated? How do Liquidspro investors get their money back? Does it make sense to file a criminal complaint against Liquidspro with the police? Where can I get help with investment fraud?
Liquidspro: Baseless promises on the website www.liquidspro.com!

"Here at Liquidspro Capital Markets, we are determined to help all investors stay current with the best trading strategies to multiply their profits.

In our education centre, every investor has access to the latest economic calendars, real-time market news, videos and e-books that show him or her how to get better at trading!" This is just a small quote of the implausible promises that curious people find on Liquidspro's website. Not a single one of these given promises by Liquidspro has been kept. Disappointingly, the suspicious business behaviour rather makes for disappointed investors and bad experiences!
Liquidspro: Hide-and-seek game with the domain entry!
Remarkable for the business practices of the Liquidspro makers is that the website does not contain any imprint with full details of the legally responsible operators of the website. If one looks at the corresponding domain data of the website www.liquidspro.com, one finds no reference to the operators there and finds that the website was only registered on 11.10.2021 and that the real domain owners are hiding behind the Icelandic anonymisation service Withheld For Privacy Ehf.
Liquidspro: Who is behind it?
Many investors will find it rather difficult to answer this question, as the makers of Liquidspro do everything they can to conceal the true circumstances. This is not unusual, however, as the perpetrators often operate several of these websites with the supposedly same business model and quickly put them online, but also shut them down again just as quickly. In many cases, the top-level domain is also frequently changed, possibly in order to deceive the financial supervisory and law enforcement authorities. And who is the operator? There is no information about this on the website www.liquidspro.com. At the bottom of the website, there is only the following note in miniature: "The Triton brand is licensed in various jurisdictions around the world and is a reputable online broker for Forex & CFDs". In the privacy policy of the site, one can find further references to Triton, for example, one can read there: "Send an email to: support@tritoncapitalmarkets.com or chat with us via our chat support". Furthermore, it also says: "Liquidspro Capital Markets is located at: First Floor, First Building of St Vincent Bank Ltd, James Street, Kingstown, St Vincent and the Grenadines". Trition Capital Markets is another fraud platform, also allegedly based in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Various warnings have already been issued about this platform, including by the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) and the British FCA. Whether there is a direct connection between the two platforms or whether they merely "copied" from the competition will become clear in the course of further investigations.
Liquidspro: The customer acquisition of the investment fraudsters
The same procedure can be found here again and again: In order to acquire new traders, the recommendations of Liquidspro are advertised in all available media and channels. For example, advertisements are placed in the social media, such as Facebook. Most of the time, these offers are false promises. In addition, 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". In parallel, an affiliate programme is usually started to incite others to advertise intensively for Liquidspro.
Liquidspro: 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. Investors usually start with a small amount of money. Beforehand, investors are 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 manipulated afterwards and unwanted transactions are carried out. In the process, the investment fraudsters often also gain access to their victims' online banking. What is particularly criminal, however, is when supposed profits are displayed on the trading platform in order to entice the customer to place further high stakes. Sometimes even small sums are paid back to lull investors into a sense of security. Who then does not want to increase the stakes further? But what happens next?
Liquidspro: Repayment of money is tied to conditions
However, an exit is then usually no longer possible, rather a repayment of the money is linked to further deposits. This is where employees come in, claiming alleged tax debts and commission payments. These would first have to be settled, then the alleged profits would be paid out. For this purpose, tax and commission invoices are sent to the investors, which are often decorated with fake coats of arms and, of course, have to be paid urgently. However, it is never possible to offset them against the supposedly achieved profits. If one refuses to make these further payments, the supposed profits are often turned into losses and the customer is harmed to the maximum. However, this is usually not the end of the horror; investors are often permanently confronted with calls from other dubious providers, which indicates that the investors' contact details are further traded among the investment scammers. In the end, the "saving angel" regularly calls 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 "saving angel" also wants a small fee - up front!
Liquidspro: Scheme of investment fraud?
There is no authorisation of the online broker Liquidspro. Liquidspro lacks the regulation of a recognised European supervisory authority, such as the English Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) or the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySec), which is often used by brokers. Likewise, there is no approval from the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (finma) or the Financial Market Authority (FMA) of Austria, which is responsible for Switzerland. For this, there is a warning from the FCA dated 21.12.2021. It is hard to miss that Liquidspro is a scheme of capital investment fraud. All victims of Liquidspro should be advised to contact an investment fraud lawyer immediately.
Liquidspro: Where do the investment fraudsters actively operate?
Unfortunately, the illegal activities of Liquidspro are not limited to the English-speaking world. Because Liquidsproebenso addresses German-speaking investors, it is only a matter of time before the defrauded investors of this speaker group also come forward. Going through the list of regulators is advisable before any financial commitment to reduce the risk of becoming a victim of investment fraud.
Liquidspro: Investors want their money back!
Fortunately, the situation is better than it appears. The aggrieved investors can defend themselves and demand their money back. As things stand, it is unlikely that the Liquidspro investment fraudsters will be caught soon, but there is still reason for hope. Especially because the money transactions were made via accounts that were actually provided by reputable financial institutions. Those responsible apparently failed to check the traders' deposits, some of which were high and therefore subject to controls, and their forwarding for legality. These omissions made the investment fraud possible in the first place.
Liquidspro: They want their money back! How does it work?
Equipped with this knowledge, no trader would have got involved in business with Liquidspro. Now the only option left for the defrauded is to seek redress. Many investors cannot even imagine that there is any real chance of ever seeing their money back. Clearly yes! There are numerous legal bases to fall back on. The generic term is "money laundering". When investment fraudsters collect money, the offence of money laundering has been committed. Financial institutions are obliged to take action against money laundering. This is where we start with good prospects of success. First, relevant questions should be clarified. For what purpose did the funds misappropriated by Liquidspro disappear? Is there a chance that the aggrieved traders will get back the money they invested with Liquidspro? What steps should be taken from now on? You can get the answers to these questions from a lawyer specialising in capital investment fraud.
Liquidspro: Who can help?
What to do in case of investment fraud? What help can victims of Liquidspro hope for in the case of investment fraud? Victims of Liquidspro will ideally find the help they need from an experienced investment fraud lawyer. He is able to take care of your case with Liquidspro both in terms of the criminal aspects of investment fraud, as well as the recovery of funds and possible claims for damages. A trading lawyer is also an option because they are also aware of the methods used by fraudulent brokers, such as Liquidspro.
