Beware! Credit Score Scammers

Fake reviews look like this:

  1. «The Metronet credit solution has made a huge impact in my life. When I was in college, I unfortunately had to rely on my credit card to help me with my expenses. By the time I finished college, I was unable to pay back a lot of those debts. As a result of that I ended up with a very low credit score and quite a few collections, so I sought out METRONET CREDIT SOLUTION. They were able to make a huge impact on my credit score. It went from the 500’s to the 700’s in a couple weeks. I couldn’t believe it. With that help, I was able to do so much more, lower the interest rate on financing my car, and to get approved for a great travel credit card which has really helped us while planning our wedding now. It’s been absolutely wonderful and I’m appreciative because I didn’t believe this process. Recommended as promised, you can reach out to them viametronetcreditsoluton@gmail.com.»

This is a classic scam. Let me break down the red flags:

Unrealistic promises

“Credit score jumped from 500s to 700s in a couple of weeks” — that’s impossible. Real credit repair takes months or even years.

Emotional hook

The story is written like a “personal testimonial” (college, debt, wedding). This is a tactic to build trust and make it sound authentic.

Lack of transparency

No explanation of how they improved the score, no mention of legitimate steps. It’s all vague praise.

Suspicious contact info

Only a Gmail address is given, no official website, no office, no verifiable business details. Real financial institutions don’t operate this way.

Too-good-to-be-true speed

Promising “hundreds of points in weeks” is simply not possible in any legitimate way.

The money trap

These schemes usually work like this: they ask for upfront payment, promise to “clean your credit,” then either disappear or use illegal tricks (like creating fake credit files). Victims end up losing money — and sometimes facing legal trouble.

This is a fake testimonial designed to lure people with real financial struggles.

Here is a list of «wizards» who promise people credit services, but only take their money:

ANSWER:

certainly this is a scam. Here are the signs:

Generic wording and lack of specifics: the email contains no details about your company or project, it just vaguely mentions “your plans.” This is a mass mailing.

Unexpected investment offers: if you weren’t looking for investors or publishing information about projects, such emails usually come only with fraudulent intent.

Email address: although the domain looks “businesslike,” it’s easy to register. Such companies are often fake or have no connection to real finance.

Promises of “easy” money without due diligence: legitimate investors conduct thorough checks and don’t make blind offers through cold emails.

Style and language of the email: there’s unnatural formality and mistakes (for example, “Dear Sir/Ma” instead of a normal salutation). This is a common feature of phishing and scams.

The usual next step is that they ask you for an advance payment for “processing fees,” “legal services,” etc., and then the money disappears.

ОТВЕТ:

Это скам. Вот признаки:

Общие формулировки и отсутствие конкретики: письмо не содержит никаких деталей о вашей компании или проекте, а просто говорит о «ваших планах». Это массовая рассылка.

Неожиданные инвестиционные предложения: если вы не искали инвесторов и не публиковали информацию о проектах, такие письма приходят обычно только с целью обмана.

Почтовый адрес: хотя домен выглядит «деловым», его легко зарегистрировать. Такие компании часто выдуманы или не связаны с реальными финансами.

Обещания «легких» денег без проверки: настоящие инвесторы проводят длительные проверки и не делают предложений «вслепую» через холодную рассылку.

Стиль и язык письма: заметна неестественная формальность и ошибки (например, «Dear Sir/Ma» вместо нормального обращения). Это частая особенность фишинга и афер.

Обычно следующий шаг — попросят предоплату за «расходы на оформление», «юридические услуги» и т. п., а деньги исчезнут.

Вывод: с очень высокой вероятностью это мошенничество. Игнорируйте и не отвечайте.

Scam alert. Swedish cryptocurrency on Facebook

«The banks no longer have full control over the people, and its only going to get better», — tells ad on Facebook (page Piradealch)

The links leads us to the website designed as famous Coindesk. But it’s just fake website.

On this website scammers are trying to take your money by selling you fake swedish coins.

Scammers write:

«It’s finally happened. A major worldwide government has just bestowed a huge vote of confidence and legitimacy onto the world of cryptocurrencies. Sweden, in an unprecedented move, just announced that they are officially adopting a certain cryptocurrency as Sweden’s official coin!

The Swedish government just informed us that they have chosen a preferred firm for the purchase and marketing of their new coin — Kryptonex Research Group. The sales of Sweden’s coin officially started September 10 of 2019 and currently these coins can be bought only from Kryptonex Research Group.

In fact, Sweden’s deputy minister of finance, Elias Karlsson, informed us that their new official coin starting price is just €0.30 cents! That’s right, their coin is incredibly inexpensive in comparison to most other coins out there. Bitcoin for example trades at €3,100 at the time of this writing, and Ethereum, trades at around €150.

In fact we were able to get Sir Richard Bronson’s thoughts on Sweden’s new coin and this is what he had to say:

Sir Richard Bronson’s states: «Anytime a major corporation announces even a small partnership with an individual cryptocurrency that coin’s value skyrockets. I can’t wait to see what happens when a government officially adopts a crypto. When the name of Sweden’s coin is released many people will become millionaires practically overnight.»

A few of us at Coindesk were curious enough to buy a couple coins just to see how everything looks and what the trading fees are like.

It was fairly easy to get the coins, but I will show you the whole process below for those that are interested.

First step was to fill out all the details. As you can see, nothing complicated so far.

Second step, I was taken to a purchase page and had to fill out my details.

For €250, I received 757 coins at 0.33 cents each. You can see current value of my coins on the same page.

The whole process was simple and I even received a phone call from one of Kryptonex Research Group’s friendly agents, but I didn’t really need any help as the whole process was easy enough.

After finishing this article, literally around 4 hours, I checked my wallet again and to my surprise:

In only 4 hours, the price increased from 0.33c to 0.78c. At this point, I was positively surprised. I am not selling my coins as of yet because all the experts predict that the price will rise to at least €1000 per coin in matter of months.

Kryptonex Research Group was kind enough to give us a 100% accurate coin movement price counter, so everyone can see the increase directly on this page».
