In the "pig killing plate" scam, it is not a new trick for scammers to actively lend money to victims to invest. The main purpose is to act as a bait to induce victims to invest money. But the following case is a little different. The main purpose of the scammer borrowing money is to "collect debts."
Online dating “boyfriend” took the initiative to lend $18,000 in investment funds
Looking back, Huiyou realized that he had encountered a "pig-killing plate". Previously, she met a man online and gradually developed into a "love object." Out of trust in her "boyfriend", when he offered to take her to make money, she was happy and even a little touched, because the other party was willing to provide funds for her to try first.
Therefore, according to the link sent by the "boyfriend", Huiyou downloaded an APP named Alex ALEX. The transaction process was to transfer the currency from MAX to Binance, and then transfer the funds to this platform for investment. "Boyfriend" helped Huiyou directly recharge US$18,000 into his account, allowing Huiyou to invest in projects that are non-redeemable for 30 days and enjoy fixed income.
First lend you money to invest and then threaten to collect debts. The "killing pig" has a new trick!
The "boyfriend" urged me to pay back the money, and the platform ran away.
Everything seemed great, but what Huiyou didn't expect was that within a few days, her "boyfriend" whom she had never met before, asked her to pay back the money because she didn't want to date. Due to the regulations of the platform, the coins cannot be redeemed before the specified number of days after investment. Huiyou said that the money would be returned to him after 30 days, but the other party insisted that the money must be paid back immediately, otherwise he would send her a lawyer's letter or Go to where she works.
Originally, the matter of "repaying the money" was quite worrying, but what made Huiyou even more worried was that the ALEX platform (website http://alexdnys.top/) she invested in could no longer be opened. Huiyou realized that he had been deceived and immediately reported the case.
First lend you money to invest and then threaten to collect debts. The "killing pig" has a new trick!
Obviously, the above-mentioned Huiyou encountered a "pig-killing plate", and her currency speculation platform ALEX is obviously also a fake APP! Nowadays, there are all kinds of online frauds, and "pig-killing scams" are committed everywhere, but the basic routine has not changed in essence. No matter what tricks the scammers use or what words they use to communicate with you, in the end they are inseparable from transfers, Make money. Remember: There are tens of millions of online dating friends, don’t pay for the first one! No matter how sophisticated the scammer is or how experienced he is in committing crimes, as long as he clings to the belief that he will not transfer money, his efforts will be in vain.
Special reminder: There are many false investment platforms and it is very difficult to trace them back. Investors must be vigilant and avoid being deceived at the source. When downloading software, be sure to choose channels such as the official website or formal application stores. Do not listen to other people's propaganda and download at will by scanning the code or clicking on the link. Do not invest in APPs from unknown sources! Don’t easily believe in high-yield, high-return investment products. No matter how fanciful they are, you must carefully check the compliance of the platform before depositing money!
