Victims are introduced to the platform through an invite link from the HORST INVESTMENT GROUP on WhatsApp, suggesting a possible collaboration between the group and the trading platform. However, when attempting to withdraw profits, victims are informed they have exceeded a withdrawal limit. They are advised to increase their trade volume to access their funds, a request that leads nowhere, with the victim realizing the scam too late. The victim also noted that the website claims to have been established in 2015 and changes its domain annually, which might falsely indicate legitimacy.
