How did you transfer the money? If you did a wire transfer you can do a wire transfer recall to get you money back. It needs to be done within 24-72 hours, call you bank and tell them that, if it's been longer then that the changes is very low to do a recall.

Lawyers from MT5? MetaTrader 5 itself is owned by MetaQuotes. You can find their contact info at:

https://www.metaquotes.net/en/company/contacts and https://www.metatrader5.com/en/company/contacts

Although there's nothing to stop MetaQuotes from jumping in like this, I've never once heard of them sending a legal demand to a broker over a client issue or to a client over a broker issue.

Before providing any information to people claiming to be MetaTrade5 lawyers, make sure they REALLY work for the company. Otherwise, you could be lured in and scammed by fake lawyers.

Also, if you haven't done so, contact the Hong Kong police. Share ALL the information you have (including the letter from the people claiming to be lawyers) and ask them for advice on what other agencies to share it with.

how to get my money back please help. me

Start by sharing ALL the information you have with the Hong Kong police. Don't wait to form some sort of group. That will only delay things. Get in touch with them as soon as possible and send them all the information (especially about how you sent money) to them as fast as possible.

https://www.police.gov.hk/ppp_en/04_crime_matters/adcc/contact.html

Of course, you can also contact the police and regulators in your own country. If you aren't sure how to do this, ask to speak to a financial fraud expert at your bank.

Thank you, the problem is that I live in Germany.

I don't think it matters where you live. The crime is conducting from or using Hong Kong base to do illegal activities and they will investigate. First thing just report it as soon as possible so they can work on the case. If they are doing this to you, I'm sure they are doing it to a lot of people.

 

[Peterwandel]

Yes I will do it. Thank you for your understanding.
But does one have a chance to get the money back?

They might or might not help you get back what you loss but do your parts and put these criminals behind bar. They are running a big scam, I'm pretty sure a lot of people have lost a lot much more.

 

[Peterwandel]

Yes, I think so too.

If they were pocketing all the money, I don't think the HK police would be bragging about how much they are recovering from scammers. It may take time, but if the HK police intercept money involved in one of these scams, they'll do their best to fairly distribute whatever cash they can confiscate.

Check and see if Germany has a police unit dedicated to online fraud. More and more countries are getting those. If there is one, share the link here to make it easier for other German victims to find.

You can also report this to eConsumer.gov in the US. They share data with police and regulators around the world. For some reason, they are offline as I'm writing this, but I believe it's a temporary technical issue. Google's cache shows the site looking normal yesterday.

Every scrap of data shared with investigators puts the criminals one step closer to being caught.

Sadly I discovered this forum too late because I was scammed out of $81,000 Australian dollars which I think equates to USD $57,000. I lost more than my entire life savings which was $56,000 and I was also fooled into taking out a $25,000 personal loan which I am still repaying, so I'm now financially crippled. May I ask if anyone has made any progress cracking down on Valley Tech, and is it at all possible for all of us to get our money back? I filled out a scam report with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission yesterday, but I'm lost and don't know what else to do.
