Investment fraud
Stock tip / crypto club
WhatsApp groups promise guaranteed stock or crypto returns, then lock withdrawals.
Warning signs
- 01
A stranger adds you to a group where everyone posts screenshots of profits.
- 02
They promise a fixed return, often daily, which no real market can guarantee.
- 03
The first withdrawal works. The next one needs a “tax”, “VIP upgrade”, or extra deposit.
- 04
The trading app is not a SEBI-registered broker you can look up yourself.
- 05
Admins mute questions and push you to a private chat.
No genuine investment guarantees a profit or blocks a withdrawal until you pay more in.
