Real experiences with wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com)!
The investor concerned, who because of wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com) reported to my office, had noticed too late that it was a question of a dubious provider. His experiences at the beginning of the “cooperation” were quite positive.
He traded many chat messages with a “Bitcoin Mining Investment” group. There a woman was responsible. She replies promptly and “helpfully”.
But currently he receives no payment. So it could be one Fraud act. Then his money was never really invested, but simply ripped off.

Wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com) deposit options included PayPal and cryptocurrencies. This is not uncommon for dubious trading platforms. Because it will any electronic payment option utilized.
Deposits via the The crypto exchange. All well-known crypto exchanges are currently suffering from the nasty scams:
The wetlandtrades website (wetlandtrades.com) may “look good”. But that means nothing. The perpetrators of investment fraud make an effort to “pull up” graphically appealing websites.
How a scam can work!
My client learned a person “V.” on “Tinder” in October 2022. Said “V.” and my client had a pleasant first meeting. “V.” told my client that she works at a bank and will be trading stocks next month.
“V.” showed my client a trading platform. After registering online, my client received a trading account. “V.” encouraged my client to invest in cryptocurrencies later.
Wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com) was also about cryptocurrencies. And it was also a woman who created the “contact”.
“V.” advised my client to deposit the planned amounts via bank transfer to www.binance.com and www.crypto.com and use the balance to buy Tether (USDT). The money was to be transferred to the suspects’ external wallet.
Fraud escalated – legal steps necessary – soon also at wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com)?
My client thought this transaction was a “trading platform” account deposit. He expected that the investments recommended by the suspects would be made.
“V. persuaded my client to alleged “credit” to request from the trading platform. My client then allegedly owed this credit in future payments. Whether with wetlandtrades (wetlandtrades.com). such “tricks” worked I can’t judge at the moment. Apparently, the scammers often use social networks:
My client invested a lot of money throughout the case. When my client requested a payout, the suspects told him to pay alleged taxes first. My client hasn’t received any payments since then, so we had to take legal action (see: Reporting investment fraud and requesting a refund).
