Several years ago, the investment project bintrade.com appeared on the Internet. It is known that the domain name of the site was registered in the UK, and the company itself positions itself as a medium-interest operating investment project specializing in binary options trading.
Some time later, the project's domain name was changed to autobintrade.
Exquisite "divorce" from Autobintrade.com. Feedback from deceived users
The purpose of the scammers who settled on the project under discussion is to make the user believe in the opportunity to earn huge money by trading binary options. Ultimately, the victim must transfer personal funds to the Autobintrade project.
The attacker sends a potential victim (in most cases the choice falls on well-known people) a letter with the following content: “I did a good deed for one person and received a reward - a robot that works online and brings real income. In a few days of binary options trading, I earned sever althousand dollars… The robot works, you just withdraw money…”.
Those who want to know the details listen to a heartbreaking story about a mysterious stranger who offered the current owner of the bot to earn capital for him, using his personal funds and an electronic robot. When the work was done, the stranger, wanting to thank the worker for his help, gave him a binary options trading bot for personal use.
The introductory part is followed by a “commercial offer”: let's say, let's chip in, rent a platform and earn money together on the autobintrade.com project. The feedback left by the victims indicates that the object of the “divorce” is first given the opportunity to “test the robot in action.”
From the feedback of users who fell into this financial trap, one can understand that, watching the robot rapidly multiplying the amount poured into the trading platform, they simply lost their vigilance.
The name of one of the swindlers working on autobintrade.com is also known - Yury Kazantsev. As for the stolen funds, no one fished out money from the virtual wallets of the victims. They personally poured their savings into the mentioned site, after which the door of the trap slammed shut.
The essence of the fraudulent scheme
The goal of scammers is to make the victim get excited and pour their own funds into the project. It is also known that Yuri Kazantsev, who offers a free VIP key to gullible users,allows you to earn on binary options, each time it is presented in a different way: Oleg Safonov, Konstantin Mikhailov, Nikolai Mikhnovets, Sergey Kozhevin, Andrey Borovik… Autobintrade.com online deceivers call a project that employs everyone, even if they do not have any skills and abilities. The goal of the project is to help them become rich.
Techniques of modern cheaters
Why did scammers manage to rob a lot of people who have experience in the Internet and do not consider themselves to be in the army of slow-witted people? The answer to this question is known to people who believed the promises of scammers. According to their feedback, autobintrade.com thrives on simple human greed.
After registering on the site, a potential victim is faced with a choice: "buy a key for 1 month", "… for 3 months" and "… for 12 months" for 500, 1000 and 3500 dollars respectively. Then it turns out that the free robot will work for free and generate income for 12 months…
"Adequate person should have immediately suspected something was wrong," readers of the reviews will say. However, when describing their condition, people who fell on the hook of intruders recall that they felt like lucky catchers who received a gift from Fate. Then they did not notice the obvious fraudulent attributes - there was too much of everything and for free!
Expert Opinion
Advanced users have no doubt that the project is an ordinary bait. Having received an allegedly paid key and a working bot, the potential victim, being in an enthusiastic state, does not notice that in factplays the demo version, and the money credited to her account is just a game prop.
In some cases, the victim, who believed that the robot would really make her richer, invested her money, which was subsequently appropriated by the owners of autobintrade.com. The reviews of the deceived investors are published on thematic web pages and are freely available.
Can a liar be fooled?
A “step-by-step guide” has been published on the Web, the author of which claims to have found a way to take revenge on the owners of a fraudulent site. He suggests:
Change your trading account password to save time
Pour real money into the project. This item, according to the "avenger", must be completed because the withdrawal of funds is possible only to the investor's account, the details of which have already been entered into the system
Withdraw the entire amount to the new address
Whether the viability of this scheme was confirmed in practice is not known for certain. The author of this briefing did not provide his contact details and did not release his real name, limiting himself to a fictitious nickname.
Cloning a scam business
At the end of the year before last, the Autobintrade robot was already mentioned on social networks. The author of the revealing publication called the trading robot a clone of the Algosniper project and urged the online community not to fall into the hands of its creators.
The company "Algosniper" appeared on the Web not so long ago - about one and a halfyears ago. The company's website, according to reviews, imitates the work of an electronic robot that independently concludes transactions in the financial market. The terms of cooperation are the same as on the autobintrade.com website. "Deceit", - users speak so briefly about "Algosniper". The only difference is that the scammer offering a precious key and a free bot to boot, now introduces himself as female names: Marina Osipova, Maya Malinovskaya, Olga Volkova…
To console the users deceived by her, the "sympathetic" girl, wanting to compensate the victims for their losses, offers to use her prepaid trading platform and a free robot serving another project - Binsecret.
Business with Oleg Safonov
At present, a person with this name and surname appears as a developer of programs for earning money, in particular a free course, after listening to which, applicants will receive a 100% guarantee of high earnings. The official cost of the course is no less than thirty-two thousand rubles.
The work that Oleg offers users does not require any skills or knowledge. Employees will learn the wisdom of a new profession directly at their workplaces, receiving a salary that exceeds all expectations - fifteen thousand rubles a week.
Given the fact that the Autobintrade project turns out to be the job seeker in the end, it can be assumed that all of the above fraudulent programs for earning money belong to the sameperson.
