  • Firdex Review – Scam Investigation & Recovery Options

    Firdex Review – Scam Investigation & Recovery Options

    Firdex – Full Scam Investigation Report

    If you lost money to Firdex (firdex.com), this page is for you.
    Our team at Seamus Manley Investigations specialises in financial and cryptocurrency scam cases, including high-risk brokers, fake trading platforms and “investment” schemes that suddenly block withdrawals or disappear.

    We treat your case as recoverable until the evidence proves otherwise.
    Even when the Firdex website has gone offline, changed its name, or stopped responding, we can often still trace what happened to your funds and help you pursue recovery options.

    No upfront “recovery fees” — we only move forward on terms agreed in writing.


    Submit Your Firdex Case for Review

    Key facts about Firdex

    • Platform / broker name: Firdex
    • Domain used: firdex.com
    • Internal reference: SMI-FB-smi-firdex-com
    • Source of listing: FastBull / independent scam-watch sources

    This broker appears on external warning lists and user reports that associate Firdex with high-risk or fraudulent behaviour. Typical patterns include:

    • Promising unusually high returns or “guaranteed” daily profit
    • Insisting on deposits via crypto, wire transfer, or obscure payment processors
    • Refusing withdrawals without invented “tax”, “unlock” or “compliance” fees
    • Pressuring victims not to speak with their bank or local authorities
    • Shutting down logins or changing URLs once large deposits are made

    If any of these match your experience with Firdex, you are very likely dealing with a scam operation, not a regulated investment service.


    Tell Us What Happened With Firdex

    “The website is gone — is there still any hope?”

    Many victims contact us only after the Firdex website has stopped loading, the domain shows an error, or all contact with “support” has been cut off. This is extremely common in broker and CFD scams.

    Important: The disappearance of a website does not erase the financial trail. Crypto transfers, card payments, bank wires and even many internal movements leave evidence that can still be analysed:

    • Blockchain transactions are recorded permanently and can be traced across wallets and services.
    • Card and bank payments pass through identifiable merchants, payment processors or exchanges.
    • Archived pages, emails, chat logs and KYC requests help show how the fraud was carried out.

    Our role is to collect and analyse this evidence so that your case can be taken seriously by banks, exchanges, law-enforcement and legal professionals.
    Even when Firdex has vanished, we may still develop a recovery strategy based on where your funds actually went.

    How Seamus Manley Investigations can help

    Seamus Manley Investigations focuses on evidence-based investigations rather than marketing promises. For suspected scams involving Firdex, we typically:

    • Review your deposit history, platform screenshots, chat logs and emails
    • Trace card, bank and crypto transactions to identify counterparties and services used
    • Document a clear timeline of what you were told, shown and asked to do
    • Prepare structured reports that can support complaints to banks, exchanges or authorities
    • Coordinate with legal or professional partners where appropriate

    We do not cold-call victims, offer “secret backdoors”, or claim that funds are “waiting in escrow” for a release fee. Every engagement starts with clear written terms so you always know what work is being done and on what basis.


    Learn more about our investigation services

    What you should do right now

    1. Stop sending money to anyone claiming to “unlock” or “recover” funds from Firdex in exchange for fees, taxes or advance deposits.
    2. Preserve all evidence: emails, WhatsApp/Telegram chats, bank statements, crypto transaction IDs, screenshots and login details for the Firdex platform.
    3. Notify your bank or exchange that you suspect fraud. Ask if they have an internal fraud or dispute team that can be briefed with our report.
    4. Submit your case securely to Seamus Manley Investigations so an investigator can review the facts and outline realistic options.

  • New York Mergers Inc. Operator Advisory

    New York Mergers Inc. Operator Advisory

    Investigator’s Dossier — Seamus Manley
    Independent review of New York Mergers Inc. (nymergersinc.com) — evidence-first, no guaranteed-recovery pitches.

    New York Mergers Inc. Operator Advisory — Red Flags and What to Do If You’re Stuck

    New York Mergers Inc. (nymergersinc.com) showed up on FastBull and on several independent scam-watch feeds — so I pulled the case together as a formal dossier. If you’re an account holder who can’t withdraw, or the platform has started asking for “tax clearance”, “compliance fees” or an odd “unlock deposit”, keep reading: that pattern is not an accident, and I’ll explain what it means.

    I treat every case as potentially recoverable until the evidence closes it out. That means looking at what went in, where it went, and what recourse still exists — regulators, explorers, chargebacks, civil paths — before anyone spends a cent chasing it.

    Key facts about New York Mergers Inc.

    Regulatory & Watchdog Status

    New York Mergers Inc. (operating as nymergersinc.com) has been named by IOSCO I-SCAN (United States of America – Securities and Exchange Commission) — reported 2026-06-04.. New York Mergers Inc. appears on an official regulator or watchdog list, a strong indicator of a fraudulent or unlicensed operation. Jurisdiction on record: United States of America. Treat any solicitation from this entity with extreme caution, and never send more money to “unlock”, “verify”, or reactivate a supposed account balance.
    Regulator reference: https://www.iosco.org/i-scan/

    • Platform name: New York Mergers Inc.
    • Domain reviewed: nymergersinc.com
    • Website: https://www.nymergersinc.com/;http://nymergersinc.com/
    • Investigator: Seamus Manley (independent)
    • Source of listing: FastBull and open-source scam-watch reports

    Why New York Mergers Inc. reads as a questionable operator

    New York Mergers Inc. (nymergersinc.com) pattern-matches to a class of platforms I’ve worked cases against repeatedly. The signals are consistent enough that I treat them as a checklist.

    • Fabricated or manipulated interface data. Balances, leveraged positions, and “frozen” P&L numbers on nymergersinc.com that don’t reconcile with any real market movement.
    • Fee ladders that only appear at withdrawal time. The account holder suddenly owes a percentage of their balance in “release fees”, “compliance fees”, or a new deposit just to unlock existing funds.
    • Short, intense relationship with a single “account manager”. Calls, chat messages, pushy upgrades, then radio silence the moment a withdrawal is attempted.
    • A regulator story that won’t survive a lookup. Claims of licensing that cannot be verified on the actual regulator’s public register.
    • A website and brand that moves. Today it’s nymergersinc.com; tomorrow it’s a near-identical domain with the same template and a new “support” number.

    How the block usually plays out at nymergersinc.com

    The specifics change — the structure doesn’t. Across case intake, the sequence around New York Mergers Inc. tends to unfold like this:

    1. Early confidence: small trades, small “wins”, a small successful withdrawal or the promise of one.
    2. Scale-up pressure from the “account manager” — bigger size, bigger “upside”, often with bonus credit that isn’t really there.
    3. First withdrawal block, dressed up as a routine compliance step.
    4. Fee-then-fee cascade; each one is “the last one”.
    5. Eventual dashboard lockout, unresponsive support, or the whole platform disappears from nymergersinc.com.

    What I recommend account holders do next

    1. Stop paying. No more fees, no more “unlock” deposits. Every new payment to the operator deepens the loss.
    2. Preserve the evidence. Screenshots of the dashboard, every chat message, every email, every bank or card statement, every transaction hash on-chain.
    3. Lock down your accounts. Change passwords, enable app-based 2FA, revoke any remote-access tools the operator asked you to install.
    4. File the case. I’ll look at the specifics — what you paid, where it went, and where recovery pressure actually exists — before you spend a cent anywhere else.

    Where to report New York Mergers Inc.

    File independently where you can. Regulator and explorer links worth keeping open while you build the case:

    Quick questions about New York Mergers Inc.

    What regulator covers New York Mergers Inc.?

    Based on public registers, I cannot verify authorisation that actually covers the activity on nymergersinc.com. If New York Mergers Inc. is citing a regulator, the claim should be checked directly on that regulator’s public register — not on the New York Mergers Inc. site.

    Can Seamus Manley get my money back from New York Mergers Inc.?

    I don’t sell guaranteed recoveries — no credible investigator does. What I do is look at your specific case against New York Mergers Inc., tell you honestly what’s recoverable and how, and walk you through the evidence-first steps.

    Is it too late to act on New York Mergers Inc.?

    Usually not, especially if you act within the window banks, card schemes, and regulators still consider “timely”. The sooner the case is documented, the better the odds.

    Tell Seamus Manley What Happened With New York Mergers Inc.

    Independent investigator note: no content on this page is legal or financial advice; outcomes depend on jurisdiction, blockchain finality, and third-party cooperation. Anyone offering guaranteed recovery in exchange for up-front crypto should be treated as a follow-up scam.

    This is my working file on ACADIAN — the platform operated at acadian.com;

    ACADIAN (operating as acadian.com) has been named by IOSCO I-SCAN (Japan – Financial Services Agency) — reported 2023-12-25.. ACADIAN appears on an official regulator or watchdog list, a strong indicator of a fraudulent or unlicensed operation. Jurisdiction on record: Japan.

    • Investigator: Seamus Manley (independent)
    • Source of listing: FastBull and open-source scam-watch reports

    What typically goes wrong with operators like ACADIAN

    I work enough of these cases that the arc is predictable. Here is the shape of it, rendered as neutrally as I can:

    • Onboarding is frictionless. KYC is superficial, deposits clear fast, and the first small withdrawal — if one is ever attempted — actually works.
    • The account is steered to bigger positions. “Special signals”, “institutional tranches”, “bonus funds” — anything that raises the balance visible on the dashboard.
    • A withdrawal gets blocked. A tax, an unlock fee, a KYC re-verification with new requirements; the account holder is told it’s a one-time step.
    • Fees stack. Each paid fee unlocks a new one. The balance on acadian.com;
      https: is presented as “real” and nearly-released.
    • Contact degrades. The account manager is “on leave”; support tickets close without resolution; the dashboard eventually refuses logins.

    Typical sequence of events for ACADIAN account holders

    I’ve walked enough account holders through this arc that I can write it from memory. Your case may not match exactly, but see how much of this rings true:

    1. A contact — social, dating app, messaging, investment group — recommends ACADIAN or acadian.com;
      https:.
    2. Initial deposit, a few positions, early “profits” that are visible only on the ACADIAN dashboard.
    3. Pressure to increase position size, usually with urgency.
    4. Withdrawal attempt triggers a “tax” or “unlock” fee.
    5. Paying the fee unlocks only more fees, never the balance.

    What I recommend account holders do next

    1. Stop paying. No more fees, no more “unlock” deposits. Every new payment to the operator deepens the loss.
    2. Preserve the evidence. Screenshots of the dashboard, every chat message, every email, every bank or card statement, every transaction hash on-chain.

    Where to report ACADIAN

    File independently where you can. Regulator and explorer links worth keeping open while you build the case:

    Answers on ACADIAN

    Why does ACADIAN look legit at first?

    Because the interface is designed to. The dashboard at acadian.com;
    https:, the “account manager”, and the first small successful withdrawal (if any) are engineered to establish trust before the scale-up pressure begins.

    What should I do right now if I’m stuck at ACADIAN?

    Stop paying any new fees to ACADIAN. Preserve screenshots, chat logs, bank statements, and transaction hashes. Then file a case with me so we can map out the realistic routes forward.

    Will reporting ACADIAN to a regulator help?

    It helps collectively, and often individually — regulators build patterns from complaints, and some cases do lead to enforcement. It’s one of several levers I use in case planning.

    Key facts about Beacon Global Management, Inc.

    Regulatory & Watchdog Status

    Beacon Global Management, Inc. (operating as beaconglobalmanagementinc.com) has been named by IOSCO I-SCAN (United States of America – Securities and Exchange Commission) — reported 2026-06-04.. Beacon Global Management, Inc. appears on an official regulator or watchdog list, a strong indicator of a fraudulent or unlicensed operation. Jurisdiction on record: United States of America. Treat any solicitation from this entity with extreme caution, and never send more money to “unlock”, “verify”, or reactivate a supposed account balance.

    Red flags around Beacon Global Management, Inc.

    These are the recurring signals I look for when a platform like Beacon Global Management, Inc. starts showing up in account-holder reports. Any one of them is enough to treat the desk as high-risk; a combination is almost diagnostic.

    • Withdrawal friction that escalates with deposit size. Small withdrawals clear, then the account holder scales up and suddenly there is a new “verification” fee or “tax” prerequisite.
    • Opaque or shifting regulatory claims. Beacon Global Management, Inc. references authorities that either don’t regulate it, don’t exist under that name, or refer to entities whose licenses don’t cover the activity on Beacon Global Management, Inc..com.
    • Deposit rails skewed toward crypto or untraceable processors. Wire, card, and traceable fiat rails are either unavailable or quickly become “temporarily disabled” once the account is funded.
    • Dashboard numbers that can’t be reproduced on-chain. The interface shows P&L, balances and margin moves that don’t match any verifiable transaction trail.
    • Pressure against talking to the bank, lawyer, or investigator. The “account manager” frames outside help as the thing that breaks the withdrawal — the exact opposite of how a real regulated desk behaves.

    The complaint pattern I keep seeing at Beacon Global Management, Inc.

    When account holders come to me about Beacon Global Management, Inc., the story is almost the same story. It usually runs something like this:

    1. First deposit is modest; platform behaves normally for a few days or weeks.
    2. An “account manager” nudges the balance up — signals, guided trades, “bonus credit”.
    3. Withdrawal attempt is met with a new prerequisite: a fee, a verification, or a larger deposit.
    4. The account holder pays at least one of these, often multiple, in good faith.
    5. Withdrawals never actually land; eventually login is throttled or the site goes offline at Beacon Global Management, Inc..com.

    What I recommend account holders do next

    1. Stop paying. No more fees, no more “unlock” deposits. Every new payment to the operator deepens the loss.
    2. Preserve the evidence. Screenshots of the dashboard, every chat message, every email, every bank or card statement, every transaction hash on-chain.
    3. Lock down your accounts. Change passwords, enable app-based 2FA, revoke any remote-access tools the operator asked you to install.
    4. File the case. I’ll look at the specifics — what you paid, where it went, and where recovery pressure actually exists — before you spend a cent anywhere else.

    Beacon Global Management, Inc. — Frequently Asked Questions

    Is Beacon Global Management, Inc. a legit broker?

    The evidence on Beacon Global Management, Inc. (Beacon Global Management, Inc..com) doesn’t support treating it as a regulated brokerage. The withdrawal pattern, the regulatory claims, and the account-manager dynamic all read as a questionable operator rather than a legitimate desk.

    Can I still recover money from Beacon Global Management, Inc.?

    Sometimes, partially, and only through evidence-first channels: chargebacks if applicable, bank or card disputes, regulator complaints, blockchain-level tracing, and — where the balance justifies it — civil action. I don’t promise outcomes; I work the evidence and tell you honestly what’s realistic.

    Should I pay the “tax” or “unlock fee” Beacon Global Management, Inc. is asking for?

    No. Every additional payment to Beacon Global Management, Inc..com or anyone claiming to represent Beacon Global Management, Inc. extends the loss. The fee is the scam, not the key to the scam.

    What typically goes wrong with operators like CAPEX

    I work enough of these cases that the arc is predictable. Here is the shape of it, rendered as neutrally as I can:

    • Onboarding is frictionless. KYC is superficial, deposits clear fast, and the first small withdrawal — if one is ever attempted — actually works.
    • The account is steered to bigger positions. “Special signals”, “institutional tranches”, “bonus funds” — anything that raises the balance visible on the dashboard.
    • A withdrawal gets blocked. A tax, an unlock fee, a KYC re-verification with new requirements; the account holder is told it’s a one-time step.
    • Fees stack. Each paid fee unlocks a new one. The balance on https:;
      https: is presented as “real” and nearly-released.
    • Contact degrades. The account manager is “on leave”; support tickets close without resolution; the dashboard eventually refuses logins.

    Typical sequence of events for CAPEX account holders

    I’ve walked enough account holders through this arc that I can write it from memory. Your case may not match exactly, but see how much of this rings true:

    1. A contact — social, dating app, messaging, investment group — recommends CAPEX or https:;
      https:.
    2. Initial deposit, a few positions, early “profits” that are visible only on the CAPEX dashboard.
    3. Pressure to increase position size, usually with urgency.
    4. Withdrawal attempt triggers a “tax” or “unlock” fee.
    5. Paying the fee unlocks only more fees, never the balance.

    Answers on CAPEX

    Why does CAPEX look legit at first?

    Because the interface is designed to. The dashboard at https:;
    https:, the “account manager”, and the first small successful withdrawal (if any) are engineered to establish trust before the scale-up pressure begins.

    What should I do right now if I’m stuck at CAPEX?

    Stop paying any new fees to CAPEX. Preserve screenshots, chat logs, bank statements, and transaction hashes. Then file a case with me so we can map out the realistic routes forward.

    Will reporting CAPEX to a regulator help?

    It helps collectively, and often individually — regulators build patterns from complaints, and some cases do lead to enforcement. It’s one of several levers I use in case planning.

    Seamus Manley Notes on Endrix Pat

    Independent review of Endrix Pat (endrix-pat.fr) — evidence-first, no guaranteed-recovery pitches.

    Endrix Pat Operator Advisory — Red Flags and What to Do If You’re Stuck

    Endrix Pat (endrix-pat.fr) showed up on FastBull and on several independent scam-watch feeds — so I pulled the case together as a formal dossier. If you’re an account holder who can’t withdraw, or the platform has started asking for “tax clearance”, “compliance fees” or an odd “unlock deposit”, keep reading: that pattern is not an accident, and I’ll explain what it means.

    I treat every case as potentially recoverable until the evidence closes it out. That means looking at what went in, where it went, and what recourse still exists — regulators, explorers, chargebacks, civil paths — before anyone spends a cent chasing it.

Treat any solicitation from this entity with extreme caution, and never send more money to “unlock”, “verify”, or reactivate a supposed account balance.

    • Investigator: Seamus Manley (independent)
    • Source of listing: FastBull and open-source scam-watch reports

    Why Endrix Pat reads as a questionable operator

    Endrix Pat (endrix-pat.fr) pattern-matches to a class of platforms I’ve worked cases against repeatedly. The signals are consistent enough that I treat them as a checklist.

    • Fabricated or manipulated interface data. Balances, leveraged positions, and “frozen” P&L numbers on endrix-pat.fr that don’t reconcile with any real market movement.
    • Fee ladders that only appear at withdrawal time. The account holder suddenly owes a percentage of their balance in “release fees”, “compliance fees”, or a new deposit just to unlock existing funds.
    • Short, intense relationship with a single “account manager”. Calls, chat messages, pushy upgrades, then radio silence the moment a withdrawal is attempted.
    • A regulator story that won’t survive a lookup. Claims of licensing that cannot be verified on the actual regulator’s public register.
    • A website and brand that moves. Today it’s endrix-pat.fr; tomorrow it’s a near-identical domain with the same template and a new “support” number.

    How the block usually plays out at endrix-pat.fr

    The specifics change — the structure doesn’t. Across case intake, the sequence around Endrix Pat tends to unfold like this:

    1. Early confidence: small trades, small “wins”, a small successful withdrawal or the promise of one.
    2. Scale-up pressure from the “account manager” — bigger size, bigger “upside”, often with bonus credit that isn’t really there.
    3. First withdrawal block, dressed up as a routine compliance step.
    4. Fee-then-fee cascade; each one is “the last one”.
    5. Eventual dashboard lockout, unresponsive support, or the whole platform disappears from endrix-pat.fr.

    What I recommend account holders do next

    1. Stop paying. No more fees, no more “unlock” deposits. Every new payment to the operator deepens the loss.
    2. Preserve the evidence. Screenshots of the dashboard, every chat message, every email, every bank or card statement, every transaction hash on-chain.
    3. Lock down your accounts. Change passwords, enable app-based 2FA, revoke any remote-access tools the operator asked you to install.
    4. File the case. I’ll look at the specifics — what you paid, where it went, and where recovery pressure actually exists — before you spend a cent anywhere else.

    Quick questions about Endrix Pat

    What regulator covers Endrix Pat?

    Based on public registers, I cannot verify authorisation that actually covers the activity on endrix-pat.fr. If Endrix Pat is citing a regulator, the claim should be checked directly on that regulator’s public register — not on the Endrix Pat site.

    Can Seamus Manley get my money back from Endrix Pat?

    I don’t sell guaranteed recoveries — no credible investigator does. What I do is look at your specific case against Endrix Pat, tell you honestly what’s recoverable and how, and walk you through the evidence-first steps.

    Is it too late to act on Endrix Pat?
