We have received a detailed report regarding m.micmarkfx.cc, which appears to be part of a sophisticated scam involving both romance and fraudulent trading. The scam began when the victim met a woman on Facebook, who then moved the conversation to WhatsApp, gradually gaining trust by discussing a “short-term trading tactic” that purportedly earned her 18-20% returns in Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), and gold. The victim was urged to download an app called ACMJ, which required entering “Mic Markets” to access a trading platform that eventually led to financial ruin.

The scam unfolded in phases. Initially, the woman built a relationship with the victim, which included taking the victim through a trade to demonstrate the potential of high returns. When the victim showed reluctance to invest further, it strained their relationship—a psychological tactic often used in “pig butchering” scams, where scammers exploit emotional vulnerabilities. Matters escalated when she pressured the victim to invest as much as possible, even suggesting the use of a family member’s identity. Despite receiving $53,000 from her as bait to match her supposed investment, the victim refused, causing tension between them.

Eventually, the app’s behavior raised serious concerns. On several occasions, the victim found themselves logged out without explanation. Attempts to withdraw funds were continually rejected, citing insufficient trading volumes. Later, after trading the entire balance in an attempt to meet volume requirements, the victim was informed they had made “too much money” and would need to deposit additional funds to cover taxes before any withdrawal could be processed. This is a classic scam strategy—demanding additional payments to release supposed winnings, a tactic designed to extract as much money as possible from the victim before vanishing entirely.

Currently, the victim has lost almost $44,825, with $81,000 supposedly still in the account, but inaccessible due to ever-changing barriers like volume requirements and tax demands. The situation reflects a high degree of control by the scammers over the app, manipulating both the relationship and the trading conditions to keep the victim hooked while extracting more funds. Despite the promises and reassurances from the platform, the refusal to allow withdrawal without additional payment strongly indicates that this is indeed a scam designed to financially exploit individuals.

In conclusion, m.micmarkfx.cc appears to be part of an elaborate scheme that combines romance and trading fraud. The use of emotional manipulation, escalating financial demands, and sudden technical issues with the app are all tactics aimed at keeping victims invested and vulnerable. We strongly advise against making any further deposits, as these demands are likely just an attempt to extract as much as possible before cutting all communication. If you encounter a similar situation, report it immediately to the appropriate authorities and do not make further payments. Be wary of any investment opportunities tied to emotional relationships or that impose arbitrary barriers to withdrawals.
