To Whom It May Concern, This is Calvin. I am writing to report a suspected financial crime involving an online prop trading firm named ForexPropFirm.com. I believe this company is operating a Ponzi scheme under the guise of a prop trading business. They are misleading users, taking deposits, and failing to honor withdrawals or payouts. The firm appears to be paying early users with funds from new ones, with no legitimate trading activity behind the scenes. My Experience: - I joined their funded trading challenge to access capital. - I successfully met their requirements, but when I requested a payout after meeting their requirements, I received either no response, delayed tactics, or an arbitrary disqualification. - There is no transparency about where funds go, and numerous users online have reported identical behavior, suggesting a broader pattern of fraud. Red Flags Noticed: - Promised payouts are not delivered even after evaluations are passed. - Support either ghost clients or provide generic excuses. - Users cannot make replies or comments inside their community on Discord, Telegram, etc. - Large volumes of online complaints show a trend of fake reviews, suspicious sudden bans, and account resets to avoid paying users. - This is consistent with Ponzi scheme behavior, where early users are paid using newer users’ money. User Review: https://youtu.be/9GFIxy2coXA?si=Hva41ir4DM6geVJ8? Trust Pilot: TrustPilot: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/forexpropfirm.com ForexPropFirm.com operates as a Ponzi Scheme and violates consumer protection laws. Many individuals may have already been defrauded, and others are at risk unless urgent action is taken. Thank you for your time and attention. Sincerely, Calvin Fu [email protected]

I purchased "AI Max" through AppFlowy.com, but the feature was never activated on my account despite successful payment. Multiple attempts to contact AppFlowy support via Twitter, email ([email protected]), GitHub, and Discord have been unsuccessful, with response selectivity adding to my dissatisfaction.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase Scam

Seller directed me to message on discord as easier means to communicate, we spoke about the deal then I was directed to said website (https://accgame1.com/store/miranda/) to purchase the two phone game accounts that’s were being sold. I was directed to get Steam gift cards 70$ worth then to proceed with the order, upon doing so never received a confirmation email then was told that it needed to be EU currency & not USD then tells me that the money will be refunded but now I need to send it in the EU to get what I was expecting to receive from the website which they sell on.

Phishing - Threat of Being Banned on Twitter / X

Someone messaged me on twitter that I was accidentally “reported” for doing phishing and I need to contact someone on Discord to uplift my ban. Ended up taking my account information and hacked my X (Twitter) Account. While so, they wanted me to give them $500 to ensure that I did not send any money with malicious intent. Luckily I didn’t, I just lost access to my X account in the end.

Say Intentions AI is a program for flight simulation for ATC, cabin crews, missions, etc. However, Brian Shellabarger, the owner, will outright ban you from using this service if you have any difficulties and either do not wish to use Discord and need support or in my case being blind and what got me banned was when Discord and Jaws had an issue on my computer and the only way I could reach out for support is by using the support e-mail address when all voices quit one December day. So, after that I did some major digging, and what is following is disturbing. What is on all of my bank statements is Say Again Solutions, LLC out of Cave Creek, AZ. I looked this company up through Arizona's Business Registration search, and Say Again Solutions, LLC does not exist. That is fraud. Then I discovered Say Intentions AI registered in Utah by Brian Shellabarger.

Investment - Investment Scam - Discord Chat Solicitation

I got approached by a person on a discord channel pretending to be the person running the discord channel about investments. He had the same profile and nickname except from an unnoticeable punctuation. Promised me that is I followed his investment strategy I would be growing my capital by just copying his steps. He asked me to deposit 25k USD, but I refused and decided to go for 3k USD. He suggested a platform through which to run the invesment mirroring called "multitradehub.com". The website seemed somewhat legit with customer service chat. They wanted me to deposit monye via cryptocurrency, but I refused and they offered a pier-to-pier type of transaction where they have given me the contact details of a person and a bank account to which I made the wire transfer (unfortunately). Now that I wanted to withdraw my money back they do not want and they say that I have to add more money if I want to get the previous, which of course I did not do so. Here is the contact of the person I sent money to: Account Name; Shantal Ovalle Soriano Account Number; 2581354863 ACH No; 021200025 Wire Routing No; 121000248 Swift Code; WFBIUS6S Bank Address; 273 W White Horse Pike, Egg Harbor City, NJ 08215 Home address; 248 Chicago Avenue, Egg Harbor City, NJ 08215

Investment - Investment

A year ago, I met James Minh Lam on Discord and started playing **League of Legends (LoL)**. I work as a booster in the game, and he would pay me to play for him and with him, as well as to teach him how to play. After a year of this working relationship, we began collaborating on other projects. One of them involved a type of crypto loan since he mentioned having trouble opening accounts on exchanges due to being American. The arrangement worked like this: whenever he needed to transfer money to one of his employees, he would request a certain amount from me for a set number of days and, in return, would pay me a small percentage as a fee for the short-term loan. Since we had built a trusting relationship, I had his full name and address, and I knew he lived in the U.S. I never thought he would attempt any kind of scam. Over six months, he consistently made payments without issue. However, three months ago—on **December 3, 2024**—the situation changed. He suddenly stopped responding to my messages and started acting as if he didn’t owe me anything. For the past three months, I’ve been calling, messaging, and emailing both him and his assistant. They responded a few times with reassuring messages, promising they would pay me back, but they never did.

I purchased an account from this website and was delivered the wrong account, I requested either a refund or to swap the account for the one I purchased and was ignored and banned from their discord when I tried to approach them through that channel. I then did a charge back through my bank due to the seller avoiding me, and have since received harassing and threatening emails from their customer support email.
