Abstract:An infamous FX broker is not only changing its name to trap more victims, but it is getting more aggressive in its tactics, going from ridiculous payment requests to threatening clients to make their payments if they would not want their accounts to be frozen.
An unregulated bogus forex broker named Wintersnow Ltd has been scamming its trading clients by requesting payments “righteously” and threatening its clients with an ultimatum of freezing their accounts if they do not conform.
Mr. B from the United Kingdom submitted a collection of screenshots documenting the process of how he was being threatened by Wintersnow Ltd to freeze his account if he did not do what they said within 3 days.
Once Mr. B requested to withdraw some portion of his funds, Wintersnow Ltd started its strategy of trying to get money out of him.
Under the pretense of helping Mr. B with his withdrawal issues, Wintersnow Ltd prompted him several times to make payments.
As stated by Mr. B in the conversation above, this total sum of 35,000 dollars was never being refunded back to his account despite the withdrawal being rejected.
Without any solid intention to solve Mr. Bs issues, Wintersnow Ltd swiftly proceeded with the next problem.
They ended up throwing threats at Mr. B claiming that they would close his account and cut off all communication – what a sense of enment coming from a scammer!
Through the evidence provided by Mr. B, WikiFX found that Wintersnow Ltd could be related to Bohua Technology Ltd. This will be the next direction for our investigation because we previously suspected that Wintersnow Ltd had renamed itself as GSM Ltd through its Twitter postings:

Could it be that Bohua Technology Ltd is another separate entity? Is Bohua Technology Ltd linked to GSM Ltd as well? We cannot say for sure at this stage but we at WikiFX will keep digging deep to obtain more information.
