“CA 4/5. Fast and easy withdrawal! I'm a skeptical person in my nature,”

Julien d.
3/23/23

CA 4/5. Fast and easy withdrawal! I'm a skeptical person in my nature, but I decided to test First Capital One with $2500. I've managed to have a very nice profit of $329 and I wanted to see if they let me withdraw my funds. I was immediately in touch with Jane Madison (she is my current account manager), she showed me the different methods to withdraw funds, and she even expedited my request. And then within 10 hours, the money was in my bank account. 100% trustworthy.

Scam! They take your intial deposit and advise you that the trail is 4 days long. During this time you will see real gains on your account you get cery excited and they convince you to add more. They bring up withdrawling your funds but they use Anydesk in order to override your account & deposit your money into their blockchain wallet. If you do intial deposit with credit card please dispute it dont let them get away with this scam! F. O R E N SIC - WATCH C O M

They are scams! I lost close to 40,000CAD in the window of about 2 months using the Firstcapital1 platform. They make it look like you're making money and ask for more investments. They will unplug your account from whatever trading engine as soon as you request to cash out some money.
You will lose all you capital and the profit all together. I lost all my savings and left empty handed. They ruined my life! I was hypnotized by these thieves. All reviews, reviewers and all positive web contents are 100% fake. Stay far far away!

Pamela at pamelamaivu (at)g máì l co m was a lifesaver! After falling victim to this scam broker, I thought my money was lost forever. But Pamela's expertise and persistence turned the tide. She guided me through the process, providing invaluable advice and support every step of the way. Thanks to her, I successfully recovered my funds. Her professionalism and dedication are truly commendable. If you're in a similar situation, don't hesitate to reach out to Pamela for help

My Account Manager seemed very keen to help at every stage of the process - this should have been a warning sign. Unfortunately, I mis-read this as good customer service". I was manipulated into investing more, more, more... very quickly, and then blocked me after i asked for withdrawal. I took my case to P R O U P S H O T and they got my funds out.

It only began with a wrong click on a google popup thinking that I can get into the AI trading. After I entered basic information into the registration form, some lady called me right away to sign me up by putting only $250. Then I got connected to my personal advisor named Jane Madison. She made herself available to me in any moment I asked for help, meanwhile she encouraged me to invest more money into the platform. The platform appeared to do trading automatically for me at the beginning and my portfolio seemed like growing rapidly. It was very exiting and with some little push from Jane, I invested more and more into the platform until one day when the market was down, Jane asked me to increase the investment to $******* so they can put me on insurance. I transferred more money to them so I also be covered. In another occasion She asked me to put another 10,000 so she can do some good trading for me. After my last payment of 10,000 I tried to withdraw some money. After trying for 2 weeks I was able to receive $2500 of my money back. In a week or so, She asked again for more investments, That's when I noticed the money they released last time was to only make me trust them so they can ask for more money. Long story short, now I've requested to withdraw my entire money, But I had no luck so far after about 20 days now. Jane first started to delay responding and now I'm totally being ignored. I will write an update if I was able to receive my money. But, till then please don't send them any money!

Tip for consumers:
This is a scam trading platform.

One of the best features of FirstCapital1 is its automated trading system. This system allows me to set up my trading strategies and preferences, and then it does the rest of the work for me. I can essentially set it and forget it, and I can trust that the system is making the best trading decisions on my behalf.

Firstcapital1 is a SCAM! They will ask for $250, then show you fake charts of your money growing. They will then ask you to invest more. If you're suspicious, they will offer to let you withdraw some money to "prove" they are legit. Then they will ask you to invest more. If you do, your money will be GONE FOR GOOD! There are many "companies" that use this deception, and Firstcapital1 is definitely one of them!

The level at which this organized scam is working is ridiculous. I invested a huge capital and started having issues, contacted their support but got an auto reply message every time. If not for R *E_C (O)V C A P I T^A L, my money would have been gone forever

My experience….
Also working with "Jane Madison" who seems very nice….you get suckered into some nice calls (trading sessions) to "learn" how trading works and profits grow. You begin to see a nicely growing account and are allowed to withdraw a small amount of money to "see how easy it is". Once a larger amount appears as profit, a huge supposed tax bill suddenly must be paid from "non-account" funds for the Swiss tax authority. And you can't withdraw ANY funds from your account now. I had even signed a "return your initial investment" guarantee agreement with Jane, which was of course, not honoured. Realizing that this is fraudulent and not willing to pay….your money is gone. Stay away!

Firstcapital1 is a platform where you lose all, whatever you put in is not coming back out. I was lured with fake profits and I ended up making more huge deposits. It only take the cutting edge technology of` ScalpingLtd `to extract everything I deposited. Once again this platform is not where you make profits, you will end up losing it all if proper care is not taken.

I finally invested with Quantum ai after so many calls I got from their agent, I first invested $800 and then I was again convinced to make a reinvestment this time I made a deposit of $2000. When it was time for me to make a withdrawal I couldn't make a withdrawal, I try all ways and even contact their support but I couldn't still get my money then I contacted tamra_maivu on Instagram. She helped me file my case and after few steps I got my money back to my bank

Firstcapital1 promises were nothing but empty words. I lost not just money but also my trust in such trading and investing ventures. Finrecoveryinc.com recovery expertise turned the tide, bringing back my funds.

You might not realise that any of your investment has disappeared until you are conned out of it. Thanks to t.O.N.E L.td.'s prompt involvement, my money was quickly restored. They imitate and replicate a legitimate firm and page to con gullible, naive individuals out of their money and time.

Firstcapital1 and Jane Madison or whoever your real name is, our so-called VIP Investment Manager was so friendly and personable bilked us out of not only our bank account and savings but our credit as well. We were first in contact with Jane on or around February 7,2023 and were Ghosted after our last deposit for Taxes on July 20,2023. Everything looked good until it came time to withdraw some of our earnings of which was recommended by Jane Madison. They asked us to pay a 35% Swiss Income Withholding tax upfront prior to transfer of our requested funds. Reluctantly we did this. Next they asked for a $5,000.00usd deposit again upfront prior to completing the transfer. I refused to pay this due to the fact I am now broke. Jane Madison told us to then borrow the money from friends or family members. Again saying no to this all communication ended and we are out all our savings and incurred so much dept. Yes we are fools after being so careful all these years and now we have been SCAMMED into poverty and unless by some miracle any or all of our funds are recovered we will live in dept for many years to come. I am up in age and may never recover from this. If anyone reading this has had success recovering anything from FirstCapital1 please leave a comment.
Also on a side note all phone numbers that are associated with Firstcapital1 including the one on their webpage are either Toronto or Montreal and nothing about this site is located in Switzerland as also reported in some reviews found here

Tip for consumers:
I made many HUGE mistakes. I should have done extensive research prior to doing something so important as investing my money never mind all of it.

Started with an add on facebook related to Quantum AI. Wanted to try it out so registered and they asked me to open an account with CAD250, which I did using my credit card - which was never charged. A few days later got a call saying it's earning season and if I could put more money it would help get higher returns. Asked to transfer using but coin cause it would be much faster. Bought bitcoins on NDAX and transferred. The whole investment showed great returns. Repeated the same after a few days and I transferred bitcoins worth *******. Now when I wanted to withdraw some money, they came back asking me to deposit more bitcoins with them to pay for tax on the gains I made. I told them to deduct the tax from the profit but they insisted that I need to pay for it upfront.

After seeing and researching the Elon Musk AI trading platform, we thought we would give it a try. I'm a very skeptical person when it comes to giving money to stuff online. After registering I was immediately contacted by a person named Zoey King, she set me up with my "financial advisor" Jane Madison after depositing $250. I was sent emails about the company I was investing with "Firstcapital1" it all seemed legit. Jane answered any question or concern we had and made us feel comfortable. Jane had us download "exodus" and "Ndax". Jane would be in contact with us continuously. After a day she asked us to invest $2500 as bitcoin was going up and she had some good deals on the stock, we did. Then we were asked to invest more, same story. We trusted her so we did, the fake platform firstcapital1 uses, showed our profit and everything. After the third time we were asked to invest more we started getting concerned as we hadn't had any profit paid back. After questioning Jane she assured us it was ok and explained everything in detail to gain our trust more. She would tell us stuff like "you can pull your money out now if your uncomfortable", " we need to start making your money work for you", blah blah blah.
When she asked us a fourth time to invest, I was done and said this wasn't for me, she had us use "what's app" to communicate with her. After expressing that we were done and just wanted to pull our money out, Jane was harder and harder to get a hold of. When she finally messaged me back she helped me complete a wire to my bank account of everything put in including profits. It's been 11 days today and still no wire, I have contacted Jane repeatedly and no response in days. We have lost $22,500. We have four kids and can't afford to lose this, but we trusted after being careful our whole life. I'm angry at myself that I was so naive. I'm now starting to work with a company to try to recover our funds, which will cost 20% of what we invested. Jane Madison, if that's really her name is the scum of the earth and I believe in karma coming to her.

I deposited 5000 USD to my first capital account; they made me only $89. Not very exciting if you ask me.
I requested a withdrawal and to close the account. The only good thing about them is that I got my money back.

I too was scammed by these people. A guy named Philip convinced me that they were legit. Now when I try to email him the emals bounce back saying that no such email exists. Is there anything being done about this?

They sweet talk you and after 6 months and 10's of thousands of dollars later, they disappear. They "close your account " and tell you you will have your money in 2 weeks. First capital 1 disappears from your browser and the site can't be reached.

Mia Morello is the name of the person who took my money.

My experience with this company is very very bad.I lost 100,000.00 in investment in a half year.When the half year came and the profit showed on the website of *******$, they were asking me to pay 35% tax on in until they can release the funds.I did- unfortunately.Than they asked me to pay a 5074$ handling fee to process the funds.I did- again such a GOOF. :(( (.Now all of the funds are in USD.After the hole thing I did not received anything from them.they were very SMART.it was a women who did the whole thing and she used my good behaviour-obviously she knows how to handle male clients- and got under my skin...my fault.
She was using What's Up for communication all the time never used face to face video call...of course.
I warn anybody to not use this company at all for trading...STAY AWAY! Please...too late for me now, life goes on.

They take your money and then make up stories about re-balancing the account etc etc.
You get nothing and your funds are gone.
