In Feb 2022, FinTelegram issued a warning against Greenfield Investment. Back then, the broker had an impressive 4-star rating with a corresponding “Good” trust level. While Trustpilot blocked the profile, the Austrian Financial Markets Authority (FMA) issued a new warning against the scam operated by the offshore entity Verit Commerce Ltd in Seychelles, incorporated in July 2021, as the operator. Michel Andrew Brutus is the nominee director and nominee shareholder. Victims can lose their money via credit cards, crypto deposits, and a Russian technology company.

Scam narrative
In addition to regulators, SGK, an investor protection association in Germany also warns against Greenfield Investment. We found as the facilitating payment processors SecurePaymentGateway for credit and debit cards and ChangeCoins for crypto deposits.
In addition, the Russian OOO “MACP” d/b/a Worktoss also operates as an illegal payment processor with Payeer, PayOp, and YooKassa. Victim deposits are disguised as purchases of software. The Russian company was registered in April 2021 and has connections to Israel. In the Terms of Use, the address 52 Menachem Begin Road, Tel Aviv, 6713701, Israel, is provided for correspondence.
