Foreword: This is very prevalent on any crypto related forums, channels etc. Most people know by now not to do it, but make sure to spread the word to those you introduce into the space. Also related are the ForEx and other trading related scams, but these ones seem to have a lot more work put into them imo.

Ok this is a list of sites related to the provided site, I really need help reporting them to their host and registrars (it’s just to much work to do alone, but I’m sure i can trust this community to do the work), you can also try to waiste their time by chatting with them in their live chats (most have one):

Do you know email domains that start with ‘v’ and end with ‘b.com’?

the cpanel using forgot password reveals that much about the email

How did you get this list? I’m trying to learn how to automate such things and whatnot

thanks for the info

I didn’t automate this unfortunately. I just happened to search for the address and parts of the TOS on Google and tens of companies with very similar sites came up in the first search results.

Good call, it is pretty rampant. Join any chat group related to money, trading, forex or crypto and if the server isnt a scam, you will be contacted by several a day
