  • Winex Markets — on the Cryptoblackbird Watchlist

    Winex Markets appears to be the latest brand wrapping the same tired crypto-broker playbook in fresh packaging.

    INTEL SHEET

    Operator Winex Markets
    Public website https://winexglobal12.com/en/
    Stated HQ undisclosed
    Regulators no verifiable regulator on file
    Broker type unspecified

    How losses unfold

    Withdrawal attempts from Winex Markets typically generate the same response set: identity verification loops, “risk reviews,” and surprise fees that conveniently land at exactly the amount of remaining balance.

    Red flags on file

    • Pressure to deposit. “Limited-time” bonuses, “account upgrade” tiers, and personal account managers urging larger transfers.
    • Crypto-only on-ramp. The operator only accepts USDT, BTC, or other crypto deposits, removing every chargeback or banking-side recourse path.

    If you’ve already engaged

    Document everything you have: wallet addresses, transaction hashes, screenshots described in text, the exact account-manager handles, and dates. Our team works from this evidence.

    File a Signal with our team. We will assess scope within one business day and tell you straight whether recovery is realistic in your case.

    Cryptoblackbird never asks for your seed phrase, private keys, or exchange password. Anyone who does — even someone claiming to represent us — is running a recovery scam.

  • Case file: SHOJI CAPITAL PARTNERS

    SHOJI CAPITAL PARTNERS has been added to the Cryptoblackbird Watchlist after our analysts logged behaviour consistent with a high-risk trading operation. The profile below sets out what we found, why the platform raised flags, and the steps available to anyone who has already sent funds.

    The concern in brief

    SHOJI CAPITAL PARTNERS has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (United Kingdom – Financial Conduct Authority). reported 2022-07-11. 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

    • The brand name, address, or regulatory claims do not match any official register, and reviews describe the same withdrawal problems.
    • 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.

    Recovering funds sent to SHOJI CAPITAL PARTNERS

    Do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw. If SHOJI CAPITAL PARTNERS 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.

  • AFX Markets — on the Cryptoblackbird Watchlist

    If you searched for AFX Markets you likely want a straight answer about whether it is safe. Based on the evidence our analysts have gathered, AFX Markets is a platform to avoid — and if you have already deposited, this page explains what to do next.

    Reported activity

    AFX Markets has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (Quebec – Autorité des marchés financiers). reported 2024-08-08. Jurisdiction: Quebec. 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/

    How this operation typically works

    • 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.
    • A dashboard shows fast, unrealistic profits to encourage larger and larger deposits, while the underlying funds are never actually invested.

    Recovering funds sent to AFX Markets

    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.

  • UBS Bond: case file from our team

    Our team opened a case file on UBS Bond following reports and warning-list entries that point to a fraudulent brokerage. This page summarises the concerns on record and what recovery options look like for affected clients.

    Why UBS Bond is on our Watchlist

    UBS Bond has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (United Kingdom – Financial Conduct Authority). reported 2021-04-07. 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.

  • Case file: Spring Gold

    Spring Gold appears to be the latest brand wrapping the same tired crypto-broker playbook in fresh packaging.

    Operator Spring Gold
    Public website https://springgold.net/en/
    Stated HQ undisclosed
    Regulators no verifiable regulator on file
    Broker type unspecified

    How losses unfold

    Most case files involving operators like Spring Gold share the same trajectory — modest entry, painted gains, and a sudden wall of fees, taxes, or “compliance reviews” the moment a withdrawal is requested.

    Red flags on file

    • Pressure to deposit. “Limited-time” bonuses, “account upgrade” tiers, and personal account managers urging larger transfers.
    • Withdrawal friction. Funds go in cleanly; coming back out triggers a sudden cascade of fees, taxes, and verification demands.

  • Best24option: case file from our team

    Best24option surfaces on the watchlist as another in a long line of opaque crypto operators investors should approach with hard skepticism.

    INTEL SHEET

    Operator Best24option
    Public website https://best24option.com/
    Stated HQ undisclosed
    Regulators no verifiable regulator on file
    Broker type unspecified

    How losses unfold

    Investors who land on Best24option typically describe a familiar arc: a friendly first conversation, a small profitable test trade, then escalating deposit pressure once the relationship feels “safe.”

    Red flags on file

    • Withdrawal friction. Funds go in cleanly; coming back out triggers a sudden cascade of fees, taxes, and verification demands.
    • Cold contact origin. First contact through Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram DMs, or LinkedIn — not through the operator’s own marketing funnel.

    If you’ve already engaged

    Document everything you have: wallet addresses, transaction hashes, screenshots described in text, the exact account-manager handles, and dates. Our team works from this evidence.

    If you have already deposited with Best24option, stop sending more — even if a “final fee” will supposedly unlock your balance. That is the pattern that drains the rest.

    Cryptoblackbird never asks for your seed phrase, private keys, or exchange password. Anyone who does — even someone claiming to represent us — is running a recovery scam.
