Hi guys one of my friends recently got scammed. I did a google search and found nothing about the site. So I am writing this. The scam website is kixtron

 

Somebody send a message to my friend. About investment opportunities. You send them crypto they send you %5 more after 5 days. They say they use your money for interest collecting lending platforms and they share the profits with you. "They say". 

 

First my friend send them like 100 usd. Then they send him back 105 usd. Then my friend send them 1000 usd and got back 1050 usd. After that he started trusting them. And send them 7000 usd. But after 5 days when he wanted to cash it the website people said him that he needs gold membership to withdraw the money. To get a gold membership he have to send them 3000 more usd. And he have to do it in 2 days. 

 

After that he called me and I said him that's a scam. And that's how my friend lost 7k usd.

You send them ${Currency} they send you ${Percentage} more after ${Number} days.

That's one of the oldest tricks in the book

Classic scam/pyramid scam. Also, I removed any links from the post. Since this is scam, we don't want to drive any traffic and potential new victims to their site.

Hi Guys,

Unfortunately I am one of the victims of this scam site called kixtron. I know there are many others like me here. I saw that 7 people in the leadership team of this kixtron were in the leadership and business team of CertiK with the same photos but different names. I reported this situation to the CertiK alert page on Twitter. Within an hour, they tweeted (attached) that they had nothing to do with this company. Later, I asked CertiK Alert: 7 people in your management team are in this kixtron leadership team with the same photos but with different names (attached). Shouldn't CertiK  naturally initiate a legal action against both unauthorized use of their logo and against showing their own management staff there under false names? Isn't it important enough that the name CertiK belongs to a fraud case? I have complained about kixtron to many places, but unfortunately this site is still open and continues its activities. What should be done to stop the activities of this site? Also is there anyway to retrieve our confiscated money from there?
