SCAM ALERT

SCAM ALERT
I have had the most unpleasant experience with this trader. Unbeknown to me there are a lot of these telegram pages that all use the same name and all posting the same signals with same results but when I made enquiries I found 3 other pages of the same name, all operating the exact trades and all calling the other a copycat. At one stage I was following all 3 as I thought they were all the same. It was not until one suggested to join their VIP Circle group for $1k payable in USDT Tether that I started asking questions only to find these other fake pages feeding off the supposedly 1 legit page. The VIP Circle gave me access to the academy website to watch some training videos which was informative. Then the investment program was introduced, and because I was making profit from the VIP Circle signals I enquired, and that was the beginning of my nightmare. The inner voice cautioned but greed got the better of me. Trusting Ben I invested $5kUSD payable via USDT Tether. No terms was given me but his signal results convinced me the investment was legit.

Email was received confirming my investment to run for a week with promise of $100k at weeks end. I asked for some information around the Terms & Conditions, never heard back. 1 day out of the week another email was sent to inform me that my profit was at $90k, mentioned Bens commission was 15% and that I had to pre-pay this amount to them before the profit was paid out. That's when I realized I had been scammed. I am writing this so that others won't fall for this scam.

Investors left in total shock by dynamic losses & no information

Thankfully I only invested what I could realistically afford to lose, for which I'm profoundly grateful. It was always just a side-hustle for me. However today after a month of uncertainty in which the Bot seemed to spiral into a terminal decline to allow continuing 50%+ DD which continued on a daily basis unchecked, which we were informed was because "the bot is unable to handle the market volatility" - the whole shaboodle seems to have been shut down now: the Bot trades notifications, the Group Chat, everything. Seems like the whole thing is over? No notification from Ben about what has happened. Apparently $2.5million lost from clients PAMM accounts with Pu.Prime. People will have incurred huge losses - some explanation or contact would be helpful. This is very concerning. (Note/edited: any concerned investors may be interested in Facebook group entitled "Pamm Ben trades bot trades").

I'm truly disappointed with how things turned out here. It's tough to know legitimate company these days. They did exactly what everyone said, they took it all. Now, I've made sure we're done for good, no looking back. I'm now on wining side—Dailytreasure, pays are always on point and the speed us unmatched.

All funds gone within 2days

After gaining $24 in thr first fee hours suddenly all funds gone 2 days after joining. Brand name was Ben Trades and Bot Trades. Excuse "the sudden downturn in the market caused the bot to freak out".

Announced on Telegram that he wasn't going to be around that evening as it was his birthday.

Scam along with PUPrime the broker who enables this. He is doing PAMM accounts though not the bot. Like anyone would trust him now.

I went to this guy looking for help to pass a challenge and he promised me everything that will help and connect me to the EA after I purchase the challenge on his referral firm he said to me to copy his signal it just blow up the challenge. Really sad we shouldn't believe everyone on the internet, but I got high hopes on Beyond Standard platform, been a smooth sailing.

Absolute disaster, stay away.

This is the same as ben-trades and i can guarantee he is an absolute scammer.
During FOMC all accounts went rekt since the bot places 24 sell trades with martingale while the price was rising.
Absolute disaster.
As a response he shut down the chat in telegram. shut down the whatsapp bot and shut down the trading bot. All he had to say was "sorry".
Just stay away!

I decided to test for few months on his copy trade basis, winning rate was about 15%. As soon as you get enroll the "VIP" then he removes you from the free channel so he can keep posting how amazing his trades are, where in reality, he is losing most of them. I tried this with money I was prepared to lose, don't do it if not you will regret it.
In contrast StakeXcel platform, I heard about it on quora and it really pays weekly and the plans are affordable

Be ready to lose money

I started trading with ben by depositing £3000 on 03/09/2024. His bot made some profit around around £500 in 2 weeks. In 3rd week the bot was doing all wrong trade an the account was going so negative. To maintain the good level of margin I deposited £300 again. On 18th Sep the bot took a lot of trade without risk analysis and all those trade went negative untill my account became nill. He successfully made me empty. I lost all of our (me & my wife) savings 😢😢😢

He blew my account in less than a month, he has no clue of what he is doing. I don't recommend any forex AI or robot to anyone. Just trade yourself if you can, but don't risk your funds on any stupid AI or robot.
