When you invest your money, the last thing you want is to lose it to a scam. But that’s exactly what happened with Qexbit.org. This fraudulent platform lures victims through LinkedIn connections, then moves the conversation to WhatsApp. The scammer, using the name “Rolf M.,” convinced victims to transfer funds to Qexbit.org, promising lucrative returns. They even shared fake transaction screenshots to make the platform seem legitimate. The scammers used cryptocurrency wallets, including 0x3AE5A69867b2E35459074f58307C34a09726bb1E and 0x804F1A6C6388B1559509E480c1d3D182fd3aD213, to complete the fraud.
One victim we helped lost $280,000, a devastating amount. They were asked to pay an extra $500,000 in service fees to withdraw their funds. The victim realized something was wrong when Qexbit’s website looked unprofessional and the fees seemed outrageous. Unfortunately, by then, the damage was done. Funds were sent through Morgan Stanley, Schwab, Crypto.com, and other platforms. The scammer’s WhatsApp number, +1-213-401-2272, was one of the main contact points. They also received the victim’s driver’s license, adding a layer of security risk.
How Qexbit.org Operates
We want you to know how these scammers trick people so you can avoid falling for similar schemes. It all starts with a friendly LinkedIn invitation. Once trust is built, they shift the conversation to WhatsApp. That’s when the pressure begins. You’re told about a fantastic investment opportunity. To sweeten the deal, they might send small amounts of crypto to your wallet. But the real goal is to drain your savings. They demand large transfers to wallets like the ones above. Then, when you try to withdraw, they invent fake fees or audits to keep the scam going.
This case shows how sophisticated scammers have become. They create websites that look legitimate enough to fool even experienced investors. Scammers also use cryptocurrency to make tracing harder. They play on your trust, making it feel like a friendly business transaction.
