A concerning report has come to light involving the cryptocurrency platform Velitex.com, where users are enticed to register under the promise of high exchange rates. Following an initial deposit, victims receive messages demanding further payments under various pretexts, such as identity confirmation through a $2,000 Ethereum deposit into a specified wallet, despite already having sufficient funds in their accounts. Subsequent demands include a 2% trading fee, leading to further financial losses. When disputes arise, the platform blocks the user’s account, preventing withdrawal or access to deposited funds.
