axitrade.io is a total scam and they are not Axi Corp
I have just been scammed by them. Initially put in just $250. They said they had traded and value was up to $1000. I said at the start I wanted a walk through of the whole system including withdrawing funds. Originally contacted by Benjamin Murphy who stated that he was from Axi Corp and gave me link to FCA to check. From this point I thought I was dealing with part of Axi Corp. He then handed me on to Lilith Cadore as my trading adviser. She took me through some stuff and then offline from me said she had traded my account up to $1000. She then paid around $200 back to my blockchain wallet. This sort of convinced me it might be genuine. Next thing was they said there was a great opportunity on Black Friday 26th November to double any amount I put in. I put in £2500 which I had just received as tax rebate. On the day they said that they had traded up to just under $10,000 which they hadn't expected. Said that I would get my investment and profit back on 29th. On 29th Lilith said she was really busy and she would do it next day. Next day she said she would get Financial Department to call me and sort. Guy saying he was William Hoffman from Financial Department phoned and said he would take me through everything but to allow him to do the transfer I would have to have a similar amount to the transfer in my wallet to verify it as it was my first trade and withdrawal. Alarm bells started to ring at this point. He said that as it was the last day of the month the company would cover $4000 so I would just have to transfer $6000. I said I couldn't do this. He then said what funds did I have and I said £3500. He said OK we will do that amount just to help you. He asked me to do remote desktop session which I did. I opened my blockchain account online and he then setup a wallet - imported the address by pasting - and then said I would need to transfer funds in. I am inexperienced with setting up wallets and at this point was very worried as I thought he would have access to any funds I put in the wallet as he had set it up. I finished the remote session with him and didn't transfer any funds into the wallet. He and Lilith were harassing me the next day to transfer the funds into the wallet so they could give me my profit!! They said unless I did that I couldn't get my profit. So they have my £2500. They were very convincing up to when they told me about having to have a similar amount in the wallet to what they were going to transfer. This made no sense and I kept asking why they hadn't told my up front but they stuck to the story that the automatic trading had made a far bigger profit than they expected. I'm assuming that those are not the real names as they also gave me links to information about them which seemed to show those names to be genuine financial advisers.
