At present, the website of API is still in a state of being unable to open, which is remarkable? Website maintenance? A few big characters left too many suspects. Is it really hacked as he said? Or are you really telling the world? I've already collected the money, so we can't really reveal these doubts on the way.
2065 438+04 03 10 The Economic Investigation Detachment of Heze Public Security Bureau exposed the API and pointed out its basis. Speculate on foreign exchange financing? 、? Develop offline? Taking huge sums of money under the guise of obtaining high returns, refusing to pay at maturity, causing economic losses to investors, suspected of pyramid schemes and other criminal acts.
On April 20 14 16, Anhui Provincial Public Security Bureau publicly reported the foreign exchange investment and financial management of API to warn people not to be confused by this new pyramid scheme.
20 14 September, one titled? Visit the Swiss API foreign exchange investment API headquarters? At first glance, there is nothing wrong with the video, but if you look closely, the video is euphemistically called the introduction of API headquarters. In fact, it is no different from asking extras to set the scene and shoot a simple promotional film. This kind of video is actually not interesting, but it is easy to fool the domestic people, especially the middle-aged and elderly people.
On October 7th, 20 15/kloc-0, 65438+API foreign exchange broke all EA customers' funds into negative positions on the grounds of being hacked, which means that customers owe a lot of money to API. Except for a few customers who didn't use EA automatic trading, all other customers fell, and the figures were shocking, ranging from tens of thousands of dollars to tens of millions of dollars. All the losses are caused by API deposits. On 2065438+20051October 8, 65438+2065438, API Company announced that it would compensate customers as appropriate (undated). The server suspended EA automatic transaction, cash withdrawal and account cancellation until June 65438+ 10/5. On 20 15 1.9, API company issued an announcement, promising to resume normal deposit and withdrawal and cancel the account on 1.05. On June 5, 20 15, 15, API foreign exchange fraud group announced that customers would compensate different proportions of credit lines according to different deposit times (that is, gifts cannot be withdrawn, only as a means to increase the number of transactions, unless the foreign exchange company allows them to withdraw after a certain number of transactions).

As for the collective rights protection of API victims, the reporter specially consulted lawyers on this incident. For such financial incidents, lawyers still advise the police to intervene in the investigation to avoid accidents.
Things have come to this. Let's see why the API can do this or dare to do it. Why are these fraudulent pyramid schemes so bold? This is related to the imperfection of the current laws in China, as well as the cunning of fraudsters and the greed of deceived people. If API really runs away with China Huimin's $1200 million, how many families will suffer huge losses and how much harm will it bring to society.
We are familiar with such financial fraud, and history is always strikingly similar. 20 13 July, the foreign exchange network 1 10 issued a warning to EUROFX. Many people were blinded by high interest rates and ignored our warning. Results EUROFX absconded on July 20 14. Similarly, Shenyang 20 13 Huiyingqi also uses high interest rates or profits as bait, and all the deceived investors are now wiped out.
Suspected of defrauding many investors.
In this regard, lawyers of Beijing Li Law Firm believe that the behavior of API companies is suspected of illegal fund-raising. Investors can only investigate and deal with the company by reporting the case to the police, and pursue personal responsibility. ? In addition, lawyer Zhang said that in recent years, online fraud fund-raising cases have been more frequent. It is difficult for investors to recover all the money in the end. ?
As of press time, there are 370 people in the national WeChat rights protection group of API, and the person in charge, Mr. Chen, told the reporter. At present, the loss amount is about 65.438+0.5 billion, with a single person at least 70,000 and a maximum of 4.9 million. ? The reporter learned from the introduction of API official website that the company has opened more than 8,000 accounts in Greater China.
On the day of the report, the staff of the Economic Investigation Corps Office said, API? Suspected illegal fund-raising fraud allows investors to report to the Economic Investigation Brigade in their region. The reporter learned that the number of reported cases is increasing. The police asked the reported investors to produce the investment records on the API website as evidence, and accepted the case, which is currently under investigation.
Suspect of API foreign exchange fraud 1: The regional director no longer reported the case.
Journalists use mobile phones and investors? Dong bozhen? Get in touch, repeatedly asked the other party to show the company's financial license in China, but he always avoided. And reassured him to trust the company. Don't report the case casually, or your account will be in danger. ?
Contact reporters with other mobile phone numbers? Dong bozhen? There has been no answer.
Doubt 2 of API foreign exchange scam: there is no written contract
The reporter noticed that there is no relevant written contract between all investors and API, and there is no entrustment agreement. We rely on WeChat to get news every day. Among the evidences provided by many investors, only some deposit details printed by API official website data can prove that investors have money dealings with API companies.
Suspect 3 of API foreign exchange scam: the company has no registration information.
The reporter saw its Chinese name in API official website? Alpine Asset Management Trust Company+Swiss Trust Company Limited =API Swiss Trust Company Limited? However, on the Beijing Enterprise Credit Information Network, the names of these three companies were entered, and there were no query results.
Bank card transfer investment
It is understood that none of the more than 30 investors who came to report the case remitted the investment funds to the API company, but directly entered? Online? Designated account. ? Online? Find him after receiving the money? Online? The account information of the investor in his official website account will be changed until the staff of API Company receives the money. Investors not only have no financial contract, have never been to the office, have never heard of the office phone, and even the company staff have never seen it.
? Mysterious? represent
A second-line investor who has developed 20 people revealed that the money was finally remitted to a company called? Dong bozhen? In a man's account.
? This? Dong bozhen? He said that he is the director of China, and API has seven or eight WeChat groups in Beijing to develop business. The managers are all him, and the information is also sent to our superiors, who then forward it to us. ? Even the investors who have participated in the investment since the end of 20 12 have expressed their specific identities? Not clear? . Besides, investors have never seen him in person. Not only that, investors said, as for it? Dong bozhen? I don't know if this is his real name. Because the name of the bank card he provided is different every time? .
Few people make money.
Investor Mr. Chen said with chagrin that although the annual income of API exceeds 60%, I have never heard of anyone making money. ? One of the best examples is the man who brought me in. He not only recovered the money, but also earned more. But at the end of last year, I made another investment, and now I have hardly made any money or lost any money. ?
The reporter found that what is even more strange is the withdrawal method of API. Although the personal account balance can be found on mobile phones and websites, it cannot be directly traded and transferred. It should be on WeChat group. Apply? . Mr. Chen said that after about four or five working days, the money can be transferred to your designated card, but the API has two regulations: the amount of withdrawal at a time cannot be greater than the principal, and the money in the account must be greater than the principal. In other words, you can only get benefits. ?
Mr. Chen analyzed that because of these two regulations, many new investors didn't make any money, and the old investors didn't want to make a profit, but stayed in their accounts? Rolling interest? .
