We want to warn you about a concerning case we recently received involving the AI4.io trading platform. If you’re considering participating in their trading schemes, please read this carefully. The complaint we received details a significant loss experienced by an individual who was lured by AI4.0‘s promises of extraordinary returns. Specifically, the victim was persuaded to invest in a Bitcoin contract options trading program purportedly developed by a professor, with the company guaranteeing an astounding 500% return on investment. This bold claim should immediately raise red flags, as such promises are unrealistic in any legitimate financial market, let alone cryptocurrency trading.

The investor, unfortunately, ended up losing a total of $70,000. The transactions were made to a specific wallet address, and we have documented the following details:
Notable Transaction Details
On August 14, 2024, a transaction of 0.42476871 BTC was sent to wallet address bc1qa3wccq594tk34yqu5fesvveg4vxn76h8s8chur, with transaction hash 3dba1f3faa38a71a91fbad11786b671753cbb7097eb3777c7538e1a9b22343f6.
On August 15, 2024, another transaction of 0.30934266 BTC was made to the same wallet address, with transaction hash 5ff66393b32e199e2cf831dd31baae641cd214d1dca4b1af53a42fee1cf31049.The wallet address used in these transactions:
bc1qa3wccq594tk34yqu5fesvveg4vxn76h8s8chur—appears to have been utilized solely for receiving these funds. Such behavior often indicates fraudulent activity, as scammers typically employ dedicated wallets to receive stolen assets before attempting to transfer them further to avoid detection.
If you’re currently involved with AI4.io or are considering investing in any scheme that guarantees returns as absurd as 500%, we urge you to reconsider. No legitimate trading platform can offer guaranteed profits, and certainly not returns of this magnitude. It’s an unfortunate but common tactic used by scammers to lure unsuspecting investors into believing that they have discovered an unbeatable opportunity. Always do your due diligence and approach investments with skepticism, especially when returns sound too good to be true.
Based on the information provided, we believe this is likely a scam. AI4.io‘s promised returns are entirely unrealistic, and the behavior of their representatives matches patterns typically seen in fraudulent schemes. We advise you to avoid any further engagement with this platform and, if you have already sent funds, consider reaching out to authorities and a blockchain analysis service for assistance in tracking your funds.

We received a complaint about a fraudulent scheme involving the website ai4.io, operated by individuals linked to the WT Finance Institute. Using names like Lysander Clark, Daniel Bell, and Martin Wilson, the scammers lured victims into a fake investment academy. They promised massive returns through Bitcoin trading and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). The scam also involved cryptocurrency addresses on platforms like Coinbase and exchanges operated by a “C2C merchant.” Victims were required to wire large sums of money or transfer Bitcoin into these accounts, supposedly for guaranteed profits.
You may encounter their ads on Instagram or other social platforms, where they claim to offer exclusive trading signals and access to high-yield ICOs. In this case, the victim lost over $550,000 after being coerced into investing and taking out loans. The scammers even froze accounts to demand further payments and used threats when victims couldn’t comply. Shockingly, they sent someone to the victim’s home to collect cash payments.
We investigated this case and traced over $43,783 worth of stolen cryptocurrency. We provided forensic reports, including detailed instructions for law enforcement to identify the suspects through subpoenas to exchanges. Unfortunately, these criminals scammed their victims using a combination of false promises, high-pressure tactics, and deceptive loan agreements.
This scheme shows clear signs of fraud. Promises of guaranteed returns, exclusive investment opportunities, and pressure to reinvest are all red flags. If you encounter a similar situation, stop and consult professionals. We encourage you to share this warning with others and report any suspicious activities. Working together, we can protect ourselves and hold these scammers accountable.
CNC Intelligence remains committed to helping victims trace their stolen assets and work with law enforcement to resolve these cases. If you’ve been targeted, don’t hesitate to reach out for assistance.
