r/CryptoScams

Just putting this out there for anyone looking into Sertexity.

There are some serious red flags that shouldn’t be ignored. If you’re thinking about sending crypto or approving any contracts on that platform, I’d strongly recommend holding off and doing a lot more research first.

From what I’ve seen, once funds are sent or permissions are granted, there’s little to no way to reverse it. That alone should make anyone cautious. On top of that, support doesn’t seem reliable, which is a big concern if something goes wrong.

The whole setup raises questions, especially considering how difficult it is to find clear, verifiable information backing the platform. When things don’t add up, it’s usually for a reason.

Not telling anyone what to do, but this is one of those situations where it’s better to be overly careful than regret it later.

Would be interested to hear if anyone has had a different experience.

I’m going to be slightly vulnerable here, but about a year ago my wife and I got hit by a scam token. Cost us a real chunk of money (80k+) and a lot of trust in the space. It was hella painful.
After that I went pretty deep on learning what actually separates legit tokens from rugs, and I figured I’d share the checklist I use now in case it helps someone else avoid what we went through.

Sorry if these aren’t sophisticated to some. Just the stuff I wish I’d known.

1. Liquidity lock
   If the team can pull liquidity at any moment, they will. Look for locked LP. No lock means they can rug you at any time, no questions asked.

2. Holder concentration
   Pull up the contract on Etherscan or BscScan and look at top holders. If the top 10 wallets hold more than 30 to 40 percent and they’re not labeled (exchange, locked, burn address), that’s a red flag. They can dump on you and you can’t do anything about it.

3. Mint function
   This one got me. If the contract has an open mint function, the team can create unlimited new tokens whenever they want and sell them into your liquidity. Free money for them. Total loss for you. A lot of “honeypot” hide here.

4. Contract age and history
   Brand new contract with no history is high risk by default. Doesn’t mean it’s bad, but the burden of proof is on it. Check when it was deployed, who deployed it, and whether that deployer has launched other tokens (especially ones that ended badly).

5. Trading restrictions
   The classic honeypot move. You can buy but you can’t sell. Some contracts have hardcoded rules that block sells, or extreme sell taxes (90%+). Tools like Honeypot.is will flag these. Always test with a small amount first if you can. I learned this one the hard way. :/

Hope this helps someone. The playbook hasn’t really changed in years, just gets repackaged with new names. Knowing what to check makes most of them obvious. Anyone have other red flags they look for that I missed?

We’re always ready to update our list.

I just received a phone call from Binance's "cybersecurity" department. The guy knew my first and last name and my phone number.

Of course, I know that Binance and other platforms NEVER call, but the fact that he had all this information unsettled me, and I wanted to get to the bottom of it. I remained calm and kept my answers very short, just in case an AI program wanted to recreate my voice later (I'm getting paranoid, but whatever).

He informed me that an alert had been received regarding an unauthorized connection from Berlin and asked if I was from that city. He also asked if I connected to public Wi-Fi or shared devices with family members. He mentioned that an email address not linked to mine had been associated with my account and asked if it was mine. Furthermore, he questioned me about owning a phone model that I don't have. I answered no to all those questions.

He said he was going to delete that information and asked if I could log into my account right away, to which I replied no. I added that I didn't really care, since there was no money in that Binance account. He said he was going to file a report or something anyway, and then said goodbye.

I immediately changed my Binance password and made sure 2FA (two-factor authentication) was enabled.

Anyway, this call seemed pointless for a scam. I don't know if I discouraged him because I couldn't access my account and there was no money in it, but I find it very suspicious.

They were already traced and found out that they made a similar site just with different colors but the same UI and scheme. I also found out that their domain was just 9 days old and have a validity of 1 year only. What do you think was their intent in this one? Is it to scam users who don’t know what they did before?

The app is commonly called or found as ACCM-PRO, ACCMLite, or ACCMmone, but the interface is exactly the same, and it's widely used for trading. I need to know if anyone is familiar with it, to determine if it's safe or just a scam

I felt so ashamed. At my age 51, retired, married, highly successful in Tech and smart, yet I let this Chinese man let me believe he really cares for me and is successful and wildly rich to con me into giving up $500k of my hard earn money into a scam crypto trading website over the period of 5 months.
I'm devastated. I don’t think I’ll ever recover. my 401K is decimated. I can barely function. I don’t know how to share this with my family especially my partner.

I’m sharing this post in hope no one ever suffers what I’m suffering. I‘m a pig, greed driven. That’s why I got butchered. I’m deeply remorseful.

Has anyone received a withdrawal? The CEO , tech support and leadership have went ghost.

So I recently got scammed. Me and my friend. I knew it was a scammed for the start but I fell for it the hardest. It was a wassup group that started on stocks then graduated into crypto. Make the story fast I put in about 45k and have nothing. What’s the best next steps. I have came to accept I won’t get it back. But any advice will help Tia.

Anyone have any experience of using this ethereum base trading app via Trust Wallet. Everything seemed fine over the last week until 1st smart contract trade today.

I now believe I've been scammed out of just over £220 going from what I read online but I have very little experience within cryptocurrency. So gas fees, blockchain fees etc are new to me. I know it'll seem a very small amount to most but as a FT carer for my disabled wife, every penny matters.

I was asked by a scammer to go to www.coinbase.com.sc - the .sc is a top level domain for the Seychelles. Has anyone come across this before, is it a variation of another scam? A whois check stated that the site was opened in April 2026. Please DO NOT open this link, unless in a virtual machine, in case it is used for malware / phishing. Any insight would be appreciated.

Is this Facebook group a scam ? Wealth watchers millionaire momentum group. It seems so real

i saw an ponzi discord a few months ago but now i cant find it. Anybody know if it still exist? They were sharing ponzies

Well, as Martin said today will be the last day of the self verification where you deposit 200 usd to be verified. However, js a while ago he announced people can still deposit normally because Martin still continues communicating with riscoin to issue a delay once again. Honestly, is this a live circus?😂

They already did their final plan, there was no updates if there was a maintenance or anything that can explain why the app and website can’t be accessed . Probably already a rugpull

Oh my god their website now is not working.

Clore.ai wiped out my $165,000 after migration + staking, blocked my account, deleted my messages, and banned me for asking questions.

I need to know how many other users experienced this with Clore.ai because what happened to me looks insane.

I trusted Clore.ai with over $165,000 worth of CLORE.

I completed the FULL official migration process through Method 2 using THEIR own platform wallet. I deposited my CLORE into their marketplace wallet, completed the migration process exactly as instructed, and even staked my funds directly on their platform because I trusted their system.

Then one day I suddenly noticed my staked CLORE automatically unstaked by itself.

That immediately raised red flags, so I contacted Clore support.

Instead of actually helping, support started giving vague, contradictory, and evasive responses. Then things became even worse:

- my balance suddenly disappeared

- support stopped addressing the missing funds

- my Telegram messages got deleted

- I got banned from Telegram/community channels

- I got blocked from X/community interaction

- and eventually I lost proper access to my account as well

Now they are claiming I “didn’t complete migration.”

That makes absolutely no sense because:

- my funds were already INSIDE their platform

- the migration process had already been completed

- and the funds were literally STAKED on their own system

The funds were already under Clore.ai’s custody after migration and staking.

Then one month of migration deadlines passed:

the balance vanished,

support became hostile,

messages were deleted,

and suddenly everything became “permanently lost.”

How does a migrated + staked balance disappear from inside a platform unless something seriously wrong happened internally?

At this point this does not feel like a normal migration issue anymore. It feels like users were stripped of balances and silenced afterward.

I’m posting this because I want response from the clore team and want my funds back.
