  • Watchlist entry · ETX Capital (clone of FCA authorised firm)

    The Cryptoblackbird investigations desk logs operators that behave like investment fraud rather than legitimate brokerages. ETX Capital (clone of FCA authorised firm) fits that pattern. What follows is our case summary and the recovery path we recommend.

    The concern in brief

    ETX Capital (clone of FCA authorised firm) has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (United Kingdom – Financial Conduct Authority). reported 2020-06-04. Jurisdiction: United Kingdom. It appears on an official regulator or fraud-warning list, which is a strong indicator of a scam operation. Treat any contact from this entity with caution. Reference: https://www.iosco.org/i-scan/

    The pattern we see again and again

    • New deposits are requested through crypto, wire, or gift cards — channels that are hard to reverse once funds leave your account.
    • Account managers apply pressure — urgency, bonuses, or threats of “losing your position” — to keep you paying in.
    • Clients are steered toward connecting a wallet, installing remote-access software, or sharing a seed phrase — none of which a legitimate broker would ever require.
    • Withdrawals stall, get delayed, or are blocked behind sudden “tax”, “insurance”, or “anti-money-laundering” fees — money you should never have to pay to access your own balance.

    Recovering funds sent to ETX Capital (clone of FCA authorised firm)

    Do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw. If ETX Capital (clone of FCA authorised firm) is demanding more money before releasing your funds, that demand is itself the strongest confirmation of the fraud. Our analysts can review your case and lay out the realistic next steps.

    Recovery is never guaranteed, but a documented, well-traced case has a materially better chance than one left to go cold. Cryptoblackbird’s team specialises in tracing crypto-based fraud and coordinating the recovery process from there.

  • Clarosto: case file from our team

    The Cryptoblackbird investigations desk logs operators that behave like investment fraud rather than legitimate brokerages. Clarosto fits that pattern. What follows is our case summary and the recovery path we recommend.

    Reported activity

    Clarosto has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (France – Autorité des marchés financiers). reported 2025-12-02. Jurisdiction: France. It appears on an official regulator or fraud-warning list, which is a strong indicator of a scam operation. Treat any contact from this entity with caution. Reference: https://www.iosco.org/i-scan/

    Red flags our analysts noted

    • A dashboard shows fast, unrealistic profits to encourage larger and larger deposits, while the underlying funds are never actually invested.
    • Support goes quiet, contact numbers stop working, or the website disappears once a withdrawal is requested.
    • New deposits are requested through crypto, wire, or gift cards — channels that are hard to reverse once funds leave your account.
    • Account managers apply pressure — urgency, bonuses, or threats of “losing your position” — to keep you paying in.

    If you have already deposited

    Acting quickly matters. The sooner a case is opened, the more options exist for tracing funds and engaging the right institutions. Stop any further payments immediately — additional “release” or “tax” fees are part of the same scheme and will not free your balance.

    Gather everything you can: transaction records, wallet addresses, deposit receipts, and any messages with the platform’s representatives. This evidence is what makes a recovery effort actionable, and it is the first thing our team reviews.
