Licensed Estonian scam-facilitator Woodstocks and its payments network

Spread financial intelligence

Whistleblower Credits: We would like to thank our whistleblowers for their reports and insights, which help us expose scammers and their payment processors. Together we can make a difference in cyberspace. Together we are an invincible force.

We have recently discovered the licensed Estonian crypto payment processor Woodstocks OÜ as a payment processor in the Trade Com scams network with ProfxCredit, FMA Crypto, Coinmond, GlobalSpotFX, Spotfinex, FXonspot, or TopEuroFX. These scams’ victims deposited money through Woodstocks‘ bank accounts with Lithuanian financial institutions Finolita Unio UAB, GlobalNetInt UAB, the Maltese Secure Trading Financial Services Limited, and crypto exchanges. Woodstocks is controlled by Marianna Charalampous and does not even have a functioning website. Here is the background information.

Woodstock beneficial owner Marianna Charalampous

According to official records, Cypriot Marianna Charalampous, born in February 1979, is both a director and the sole beneficial owner.

Nevertheless, the company has been processing payments from scam clients through a network of partners. Woodstocks appears to have a link to the Safe Currency crypto exchange (www.safecurrency.com). In Woodstocks‘ official KYC documents, several links to Safe Currency, which UK-registered Safe Currency LLP operates, are provided.

  1. Salve, anche io sono stato truffato da tre di queste società, Fma crypto, Coinmond e Woodstock, per un importo superiore ai 50000 euro. Fatemi sapere se c’è sono qualche possibilità per poterli recuperare.
