- Seek Legal Advice: Consult with a lawyer who specializes in financial fraud. They can guide you through the process of taking legal action against the scammers.

AdminHi Blair,
Thank you for sharing your experience and for being cautious. It’s always wise to research and question offers that seem too good to be true. Kubit-prosminer.top has indeed been flagged as a scam, and your decision to avoid providing them with your information is smart. If you come across any more suspicious websites or need further advice, feel free to reach out here. Your vigilance helps protect others in the community as well.
Stay safe,
AdminThank you, Network Tester, for your thorough investigation into Commaex.com. Your findings about their questionable registration details and lack of transparency are highly concerning and further substantiate our initial warning.
The lack of verifiable information, including no record with the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority and no visible details about the company’s operations or ownership, are strong indicators of a potentially fraudulent operation. Your discovery that both domains were registered privately and recently adds to the suspicion.
We encourage anyone else with additional information or who has been affected by Commaex.com to share their experiences here. This collective information is crucial in helping prevent others from falling victim to such scams.
Thank you again for your valuable input.
Best regards,
AdminHi Rodger,
Thank you for sharing your experience with Annimex.com. It sounds very similar to what other victims have reported. The tactics of asking for increasingly larger investments and then refusing to allow withdrawals unless more money is added are classic signs of a scam.
Given the significant amount of money you’ve lost, I recommend contacting CNC Intelligence for assistance. They offer a free initial consultation and can provide expert guidance and support in tracing and potentially recovering your funds. CNC Intelligence specializes in cryptocurrency investigations and has helped many victims of similar scams.
Stay safe,
AdminJune 18, 2024 at 11:17 am in reply to: Beware of OEXBAKE and OEXFLY Scams – Share Your Experience #1873OEX may provide or promote financial services or products without regulatory permission. You should avoid dealing with this firm and beware of scams.
Almost all firms and individuals must be authorized by the FCA to carry out or promote financial services in the UK. This firm is not authorized by them and may be targeting people in the UK.
Unauthorized firm details:
- Name: OEX
- Websites:
https://www.oexgeek.xyz/#/https://oexbake.com/#/– OEXBake Reviewhttps://instoex.com/#/https://oexround.club/#/https://www.oexhugo.xyz/#/https://www.oexhugo.com/#/https://oexgeek.vip/#/
If you have been scammed by OEX or any of these websites, please share your story.
OEX is an unauthorized entity providing or promoting financial services without permission. The firm’s website, oexbake.com, was registered on January 2, 2024, with the registrar Gname.com Pte. Ltd., and is set to expire on January 2, 2025. The registration details indicate that the registrant’s information is redacted for privacy, but it lists Manila, Philippines, as the registrant’s location. The website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc., with servers in Toronto, Canada.
The scam involves fraudulent transactions where users report that withdrawals from the platform do not appear in their wallets despite being marked as successful. This has led to numerous complaints and suspicions of fraudulent activity. The site uses Cloudflare’s services, making it more challenging to trace the actual location of the servers.
Individuals have reported that their transactions remain “stuck in the blockchain,” with no support or resolution from the website’s administrators. The site has minimal organic traffic and backlinks, suggesting it is newly established and possibly created solely for fraud.
On February 17, 2024, we received the following complaint:
I was introduced to crypto trading by a friend who has since vanished, leaving me clueless about how to recover my BTC from a website called OEXBAKE.com. Through learning and trying out, I accumulated a whopping 1951.8591 BTC. Now they are refusing to let me withdraw into my Coinbase wallet, stating that I need to provide 1% of the total assets and transfer it to a one-time address that will be provided to me. Once they receive this, they claim they will allow the relevant transfer.
On May 21, 2024, we received another complaint from a person who reported being scammed for over $40K:
I created an account on OEXhugo but cannot withdraw my money.
Victims are encouraged to share their experiences to help others avoid falling into the same trap.
We received another Scam Report for bersotlax.com on June 16, 2024.
A scammer contacted the victim with a job offer, leading them to invest all their savings. They were made to perform tasks, incurring charges for alleged mistakes. Ultimately, they were asked to pay an additional sum to withdraw their investment and profits.

Domain Analysis
The domain bersotlax.com was registered on April 17, 2024, through Alibaba.com Singapore E-Commerce Private Limited and is set to expire on April 17, 2025. The domain’s status is currently marked as “ok,” it uses the name servers ns7.alidns.com and ns8.alidns.com. The registrant’s contact information lists the Commonwealth of Kentucky in the US as the location. The domain is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc., with an IP address of 104.18.21.48, and the hosting server is located in Toronto, Canada.
WHOIS data reveals that bersotlax.com is a newly registered domain, with its creation and most recent update occurring on the same day, April 17, 2024. Despite its newness, the site has already garnered a small number of backlinks, all of which are marked as “nofollow.” These backlinks originate from websites like muabannhadat.tv and newlyregddomains.com, indicating that the domain has been promoted on various platforms since its registration.
SEO analysis shows that bersotlax.com has no significant authority score, organic search traffic, or paid search traffic, suggesting it has not established a solid online presence or ranking. The domain’s lack of branded and non-branded traffic indicates minimal visibility and engagement. Bersotlax.com appears to be a relatively new and obscure site with limited online activity and recognition.
Content Analysis
When accessed, the homepage of bersotlax.com leads to a 404 error page, indicating that the site is not functioning correctly. The 404 error page’s source code reveals minimal content, referencing a few external JavaScript and CSS assets. No meaningful content or functionality is present, and there are no active elements or information on the site that a visitor could engage with. This lack of functionality and content, coupled with only a 404 error, suggests that the website may not have been fully developed or is intentionally left incomplete to obscure its true nature.
Critically, the domain shows no signs of legitimate business activities. Its WHOIS data indicates that it was created and last updated on the same day, which can be typical for legitimate new domains. However, it raises suspicions in this context due to the lack of subsequent updates or content development. Google indexes the site, but only the homepage is available, leading directly to the 404 error, further highlighting the site’s lack of legitimate presence or functionality.
Bersotlax.com Reviews
Reviews from ScamAdviser and ScamDoc rate the site’s trust score extremely low. ScamAdviser gives it a score of 41 out of 100 and highlights the hidden owner identity, lack of visitors, and recent registration as major concerns. ScamDoc rates it even lower at 2%, indicating it is only safe for very experienced internet users.
According to Scamwatcher and other review sites, bersotlax.com operates by contacting victims through text messages and Telegram, promising high returns on cryptocurrency investments. Victims are enticed to perform tasks and invest money, but they never see any returns. The negative reviews emphasize high fees, lack of regulatory oversight, insufficient website information, and poor user experiences as critical issues. Scamadviser recommends extreme caution and suggests reporting any encounters with the site to law enforcement. The collective evidence from various review platforms strongly suggests that bersotlax.com is a scam designed to defraud unsuspecting individuals of their cryptocurrency.

- Verification: Always verify the legitimacy of an investment platform through independent research and reviews from reliable sources.

AdminHello Brian,
I’m sorry to hear about your experience with Cmegrotc.com. It sounds like you’ve encountered a common scam tactic where fraudsters create fake affiliations with reputable companies to deceive victims. The demand to increase your balance to “derisk” your account is a clear red flag. I recommend ceasing all communication with them immediately. For your next steps, report this incident to local law enforcement and file a complaint with your country’s financial regulatory authority.
Contact CNC Intelligence for specialized assistance in tracing and potentially recovering your lost funds.
Be cautious of further contact from the scam operators as they might attempt additional fraudulent tactics.
