Cómo opera la estafa.
AIG Trade opera a través del dominio aigtrade.com y se presenta como una plataforma de trading o inversión en línea para clientes minoristas. El nombre se asemeja estrechamente al de un conglomerado de seguros y servicios financieros reconocido a nivel mundial, una construcción deliberada diseñada para generar la impresión de un respaldo institucional. Es probable que la plataforma comercialice acceso a operaciones con criptomonedas, forex o activos más amplios, valiéndose de paneles de control e interfaces de cuenta de apariencia profesional para sostener esa impresión durante la fase de captación.
La mecánica de las operaciones de esta categoría sigue un patrón constante. Tras el contacto inicial, se anima a los usuarios a financiar una cuenta, a menudo con el apoyo de cifras de rendimiento artificialmente favorables que se muestran dentro de un portal propio. Los saldos y las ganancias teóricas aparentan crecer, lo que genera confianza e impulsa nuevos depósitos o referidos. Dado que el operador controla todas las representaciones del valor de la cuenta, esas cifras no guardan relación alguna con la actividad real del mercado. La plataforma no tiene obligación de cumplirlas.
El esquema se revela cuando se intenta un retiro. En ese momento, los usuarios suelen encontrarse con una secuencia de obstáculos: exigencias de comisiones de procesamiento, cargos por cumplimiento tributario, retrasos en la verificación de identidad o bloqueos de cuenta sin explicación. Las comunicaciones del soporte se ralentizan o cesan. Se solicitan pagos adicionales bajo diversos pretextos, ninguno de los cuales deriva en un desembolso. En el caso de plataformas con una clasificación de fraude confirmado, el operador no tiene intención de devolver el capital depositado a través de ningún proceso interno.
Banderas rojas que documentamos.
- 01Name engineered to evoke a recognised financial institutionThe trading name AIG Trade closely mirrors that of a major global financial group. This is a well-documented pattern in fraudulent platform design: borrowing name equity from a credible institution to lower a prospective depositor's guard. No affiliation with or endorsement by any established financial entity should be assumed.
- 02Confirmed-fraud classification from broker due-diligence sourceBrokersView, which specialises in documenting broker conduct and regulatory standing, has assigned AIG Trade a confirmed-fraud rating. Such classifications are based on documented evidence of harmful conduct and represent one of the clearest external signals available to prospective users.
- 03No evidence of recognised regulatory authorisationPlatforms operating in this category consistently fail to produce verifiable licensing from credible financial regulators. Any regulatory claim made by AIG Trade should be cross-referenced directly with the named authority before any funds are committed, as fabricated licence numbers and regulator logos are routine in this space.
- 04Proprietary platform with no independent oversight of positions or balancesWhere a platform operates exclusively on its own infrastructure with no connectivity to regulated exchanges or clearing houses, the operator alone determines what users see. Account balances, trade histories, and profit figures are unaudited representations. There is no independent mechanism to verify whether client funds are held, invested, or simply retained.
- 05Withdrawal obstruction is the defining failure patternThe characteristic signal of a deposit-theft operation is systematic refusal to process withdrawals. Victims report escalating pretexts for non-payment, including compliance fees and documentation requests, none of which lead to fund release. This pattern is not incidental; it is the mechanism by which the operator retains deposited capital.
Lo que puedes hacer ahora.
Open a free 24-hour case assessment with CryptoLeek +
Tell us what happened. A senior analyst reads your file within 24 hours and replies with an honest yes/no/conditional on recovery. The assessment is free. If we cannot recover the funds we say so plainly, including which (free) regulator channel you should use instead. If we accept the case, we open a numbered case file and issue a written quote for a flat investigation retainer before any work begins, scoped to case complexity, the jurisdictions involved, and the on-chain trail.
Trace your funds on-chain with our analysts +
We trace stolen crypto across BTC, ETH, EVM L2s, Solana, Tron, and major stablecoins using the same toolchain as regulators and tier-1 exchange compliance teams. The output is a forensic report anchored to specific transaction hashes and block heights, the evidence that exchanges, payment processors, and counsel actually act on. Recovery starts here.
Recover with counsel where civil action makes sense +
Where the trace lands in a jurisdiction with cooperative banks and courts, we coordinate with bar-licensed counsel in our 40+ jurisdiction network for civil action and asset-freezing orders (Mareva-style). Counsel bill you directly; the CryptoLeek investigation retainer is independent of counsel fees. The outcome is funds released back to your nominated wallet or bank account.
