The Commission called on people to inquire about the entities authorized to operate in Chile.
The repercussions continue after a new case of international pyramid scam, after the justice admitted last week a criminal complaint for the operations of Commerce offered by Aronex Corporation through the 2Invest platform. The Commission for the Financial Market (CMF) issued an alert on the situation Wednesday.
The supervisory body of the capital market reported through a press release that “in the exercise of its mandate to safeguard the public interest and the trust of market participants, it informs investors and the general public that the firm called 2Invest is not within the entities controlled by the CMF “.
The entity chaired by Joaquín Cortez clarified that 2Invest “does not have authorization to provide securities brokerage services in Chile, according to Law No. 18,045”.
The Commission recalled that they have a site Web special where “They can verify if a company or person that offers financial products or services is audited by the CMF, review the alerts made by the CMF and other foreign regulators on unregulated entities or activities and other important advice for the protection of investors, policyholders and financial clients “.
The CMF warning was added to the one issued on November 11 by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission, which reported that the operations of Aronex Corporation and 2Invest have “indications that the companies are attracting clients irregularly to carry out operations of derivatives on the markets known as Forex (Foreign Exchange) and CFD (Contract for Difference) “.
In Chile, the 4th Guarantee Court of Santiago declared admissible on November 23 a criminal complaint filed by a client -who prefers to keep her name in reserve- who is represented by the lawyers of the RCZ study, Ciro Colombara, Aldo Díaz and Carlos Mora , after suffering a $ 96.2 million fraud by Aronex Corporation.
The 2Invest platform allows you to Commerce stocks, Forex, cryptocurrencies and raw Materials. The page is controlled by Aronex, which is also supposedly dedicated to providing investment advice to institutional clients. Aronex’s domicile is Seychelles, which is an archipelago located in East Africa.
To raise funds in Chile, acted as an intermediary Digital and Financial Solutions that is managed by Enrique Fogel Kaplan. To invest, victims must deposit to a Banco Security account.
The modus operandi of 2Invest is that supposed executives of the platform contact clients and they ask for different amounts to start investing and then they disappear. To recover the investment, a previous deposit bonus is offered for another sum of money that later disappears and they repeat the modality.
According to the site Web of 2Invest, its operations are concentrated in Latin America, in countries such as Cuba, Venezuela, Panama, Haiti and Chile. In fact, it does not accept operations from the United States or countries belonging to the European Union.
The lawyers Colombara, Díaz and Mora explained to DF what “2Invest is a sophisticated transnational fraud that is becoming more common every day and that is built on the following bases: economic globalization, the Internet and tax havens. These are criminal companies that are established in one of the remaining tax havens, in order to make it difficult or prevent to reach the perpetrators and to recover the assets derived from the crime “.
The complainant’s representatives mentioned that “these are companies that use the Internet as a way of connecting with investors who will be scammed, with a very careful design that makes them believe that it is a first-rate company, and that it uses the international financial system and the facilities of the Internet to take the money to tax havens from where it will be more difficult to obtain their recovery “.
They also detailed that in this case, together with lawyers from other countries that are part of FraudNet, a global network specialized in asset recovery, “We are monitoring the situation in several countries and doing what is necessary to alert about this fraud and prevent more victims.”
