    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

Problem Knights service group tinder scam

I am having an issue with a company

I have read a few accounts of the same situations and many said to start a new thread about the issues

I met someone one tinder, Xia Qiaolan who claimed to be a Chinese business owner. After speaking for a few weeks all day and every day the discussion eventually turned to investment. I trialled the mt5 knight service group practice account before putting in $200 into a real account.

After a few trades it had made a small profit and I then deposited $5000 in. The 5k hasn't cleared into the account in a few days, the money went through a national australia bank account, I think the account was owned by NDAK medical supplies?

The woman, presumably, I was speaking to would always send me photos, daily, photos with her family, friends etc. I reversed image searched all her photos using 2 different sites and nothing comes up so the images don't appear to be on any social media or anything else.

Also if this is a scam they are the most patient scammers in history, she was teaching me mandarin (I am a slow learner), teaching me about Chinese culture, basically never mentioning money or trading.

Regardless I thought I was pretty on the ball but I guess not. I am fairly confident I won't get the funds back but at least I learned a lesson right

After going back on tinder with a dummy account I noticed a dozen more Chinese women, all 29-31, business owners and all seem to have an uncle or aunt that is an analyst and all odly enough 18-20km from me, one even stated she was quarantined at the Chinese consulate in Perth which is 19km away from my location and all eventually lead to knights service group, which I only found out was dodgy after the 5k didn't ckear

I attached a few photos of the girl in question

OK the funds actually cleared suprisingly and are in my mt5 account in the knights service group account. To try and save face is there anyway to transfer the funds to a different broker before it goes missing?

Don't think you can do that because the money is on their end and the company is fake. I have tried it before with a different company but same story. If is possible, can you post the bank account info that your money were transferred to on this forum? So, if other people try to search it then it will pops on google.

HOW TO COMPLAIN TO THE REGULATORS MANUAL

It’s EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that everyone affected come forward in order to defeat this type of organization. Put them all behind bars where they belong.

company offering forex, gold, financial trading product require to obtain license from financial regulator, the license can be cross check with financial authority website. if broker company operate without verifiable license number, most likely it is fake trading, and your trade doesnt pass to the real market exchange. the money is gone for good as soon as you send the deposit

Have you withdraw anything yet? If not ask them for a withdrawal and tell them that you want to invest more but need to test the withdrawal first.

I also met this Chinese girl on Messenger. She introduced herself as living in China and had her own business she started from scratch. A milk tea business she says now has 3 locations and expanding. She does not speak English but uses a translator app. Very friendly and indicates she is looking for a relationship. I wan't so played along. She began sending me photos of herself that looked like a very expensive home. Said she has a Porche auto. I asked her if her business was that successful to warrant all those nice things being so young. Said she was 30. Very attractive with suggestive photos coming almost daily. Then she asked if I invested in bitcoin. Having only heard of bitcoin but never looking Into it she suggested I learn from the best. She arranged for me to have lessons from an agent in Hong Kong that would teach me MT5. Very good and very patient. Then he advised the analyst in London to contact me to begin setting up an account. Appears all three of these contacts are anxious for me to invest.
I can't believe how smooth these people are. This gal even invited me to visit her in China and she would give me a tour and pay for everything. Says she makes a profit on almost every movement that is recommended by her analyst.
Tried to search anything I could find about Knight Service Group. Glad I found this one.
 
OK update on this, tried the withdraw option from the knight service group login, it say withdraw sucsesfull but the funds never leave the account.

The woman says it takes a few days, I must be patient. I have not jumped to the "you are a scam give me my money" because I figured they would just dissapear real quick.

Its kind of annoying because I have more than double what I invested first hahaha

There is no way you can withdraw from mt5 app is there? Does it always have to be withdrawn from the broker? Is there some sort of security mt5 can offer to protect against this sort of thing maybe a transfer to another broker?

Any info would be greatly appreciated, even if I get half back it's a win for me. I have already sent an email to Hong Kong Police cyber crime but haven't heard anything back yet

I recommend to read the news an other topic here. One of the former names of Knight Service Group was Business Choice Partners Group. We try to collect as much information about the scammers as possible. If you get half back it would be a huge win for you.
