Cómo opera la estafa.
IntraDay Capital está documentada en la lista pública de advertencias mantenida por la FCA (Reino Unido), Lista de Advertencia de Opciones Binarias (Reino Unido). La plataforma opera desde intradaycapital.com.
La FCA (Reino Unido), Lista de Advertencia de Opciones Binarias, expone el siguiente motivo de la advertencia: "La FCA (Autoridad de Conducta Financiera del Reino Unido) ha identificado a IntraDay Capital operando en el Reino Unido sin autorización para ofrecer servicios financieros. Dirección comercial registrada: Southampton Place, London WC1A 2BP."
Las operaciones que coinciden con este patrón suelen presentar una interfaz de trading pulida con cotizaciones de precios en tiempo real, un "gestor de cuenta personal" disponible a través de una aplicación de mensajería, y la apariencia de depósitos que funcionan y de pequeños retiros de prueba. El fraude sale a la luz cuando la víctima solicita un retiro considerable, momento en el cual la plataforma inventa una secuencia de comisiones, impuestos o "actualizaciones de cumplimiento" que deben pagarse antes de la liberación de los fondos. Por lo general, el depósito original ya se ha movido fuera de la cadena mucho antes de que el usuario lo note.
Banderas rojas que documentamos.
- 01Listed on the FCA Unauthorised Firms Warning RegisterThe FCA's warning list identifies firms operating financial services in the UK without the required authorisation. Inclusion confirms that IntraDay Capital was not licensed to accept client funds or offer trading products to UK consumers, and that no regulatory protections applied to any deposits made.
- 02Binary Options: A Product Category Banned for Retail Sale in the UKThe FCA categorically prohibited the sale of binary options to retail consumers due to the structural harm these products cause. Any platform continuing to market them to UK residents was doing so outside the legal framework entirely, with no investor protection scheme available to affected users.
- 03No Client Money Protection in PlaceAuthorised firms in the UK are required to segregate client funds and comply with FCA client asset rules. Unauthorised operations carry none of these obligations, meaning deposited funds are commingled with operator funds and are fully exposed to misappropriation with no statutory recovery path.
- 04Withdrawal Obstruction: The Defining Signal of This Operation TypePlatforms of this category are consistently characterised by their inability or unwillingness to return funds. Victims report escalating demands placed at the withdrawal stage, including fees, verification loops, and account restrictions that did not exist during onboarding.
- 05No Verifiable Corporate Identity or Responsible PersonsOperations flagged on the FCA warning list typically lack transparent company registration, verified physical addresses, or named individuals accepting legal responsibility. This absence of corporate accountability is a red flag in itself and a significant practical obstacle to any recovery effort.

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.
