On oct 30, 2025 I found this group on Instagram, ended up on whatsapp and the group name is James Astor who is a crypto investor. He offers trading signals and he works with vexquisexchange.com. The exchange offered $300 for trial funds and if you made over $300 profit from trading, you get to keep the profit. The trial funds were for 3 days and then vexquis took the $300 back and you were left with the profit. James Astor the investor was in a Trading Master competition {held by Vexquisexchange) and every time we voted for him we received $20 deposited into our account And if we invited anyone, they received $20 and I received $50.00. This went on until Jan. 10, 2026. He finally won the competition. During this time from Oct. 30,2025 he would provide trading signals twice a day, at 11am pst and at 5pm pst. Amy (his admin) would send the trading signals, we would invest 25% of what our investment was. We would make up to 46% on each trade. He guaranteed payment if we lost money, which happened twice and he paid me twice. On Dec. 12, 2025 I invested in a trade, he said to trade PHXN/USDT I lost $1,845.98 and he deposited $3000.00 and the records don't go far that back in the vexquis deposit log on the date he deposited. Then I was part of the Rocket Plan, On Dec. 24, 2025 I lost $12,425.25 in a trade. He said to buy PLX8/USDT , I invested $10,000. Because of this loss, he paid us 3 times the loss, which he did, he deposited $30,180. on Dec. 30, 2025 I was part of the Recovery Plan, to where you invest $20,000 and he said you will receive $100,000. within a week. This started Jan. 9, 2025. We traded and he said to invest in the IEO (Inital Exchange Offerings) these are for new tokens. The new token was GIP GeneInsight. James said you can pre pay for the tokens which would free up your account so you can continue trading, the minimum to buy was was 30,000 tokens which I did prepay. the only way I can buy the tokens is with an allocation code. When Amy (the admin) gave me the allocation code, there was no mention that I had to pay separately, an allocation fee which had to be sent from an external wallet not from my account with Vexquis. Vexquis says it's because of the AML (Anti Money Laundry) regulations that the money had to be from an external wallet. I was mad because I didn't know about this, Amy nor Vexquis disclosed this. So now I can not withdraw my money from Vexquis until I pay the allocation service fee of $33,978.60. They gave me this address to send the money to:0xFDe8Ea78965A7f382a9c7B41F3c30f6F869626e5. I asked them for the company name and of course they can't give it to me. I asked Amy for the company name and she can't give it to me either. After doing research, any legit Allocation Team would take their fee from your profit. So this is where I am at. I can not withdraw my money from vexquis until I pay them. So I am filing a report against them and hopefully you shut them down and get my money back from them. they have my money.
