  • FIRST ZURICH TRUST AG – FERRY HILL CAPITAL PARTNERS LTD – Mr Ioannis Exarchos — on the Cryptoblackbird Watchlist

    FIRST ZURICH TRUST AG – FERRY HILL CAPITAL PARTNERS LTD – Mr Ioannis Exarchos caught our team’s attention for a familiar reason: the operation shows the hallmarks of an unlicensed platform built to take deposits rather than return them. Here is what the Cryptoblackbird desk has on file.

    Why FIRST ZURICH TRUST AG – FERRY HILL CAPITAL PARTNERS LTD – Mr Ioannis Exarchos is on our Watchlist

    FIRST ZURICH TRUST AG – FERRY HILL CAPITAL PARTNERS LTD – Mr Ioannis Exarchos has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (Greece – Hellenic Capital Market Commission). reported 2021-07-29. Jurisdiction: Greece. 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

    • 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.
    • 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.

    Recovering funds sent to FIRST ZURICH TRUST AG – FERRY HILL CAPITAL PARTNERS LTD – Mr Ioannis Exarchos

    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.

  • Better Tr: case file from our team

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

    Why Better Tr is on our Watchlist

    Better Tr has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (United Kingdom – Financial Conduct Authority). reported 2026-04-24. 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/

    Warning signs to recognise

    • 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.
    • The company cannot show a verifiable licence in the jurisdiction where it solicits clients.
    • The brand name, address, or regulatory claims do not match any official register, and reviews describe the same withdrawal problems.

    What to do next

    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.

    Do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw. If Better Tr 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.
