I was contacted by Genus Capital Management (no relation to the British Columbia registered firm Genus Capital Management Inc.) through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
This company appears on the IOSCO I-SCAN international warnings list. Over 68 financial regulators worldwide contribute to this database. While being listed doesn't automatically mean fraud, it's a significant red flag that potential investors should take seriously. Do your research thoroughly.

I was about to invest with Genus Capital Management (no relation to the British Columbia registered firm Genus Capital Management Inc.) but decided to check their regulatory status first. They claim to be regulated but I could not find them on any official register. British Columbia Securities Commission has actually issued a warning about this firm. Thank goodness I checked before sending any money.
