Global Investor Alerts global investor alerts is scamming victims & rendering competition

I was caught in a scam a few months ago, it looked legitimate enough but maybe my greed just clouded my judgment and I ended up buying a bunch of worthless pink sheets to the tune of about $2, 000. Thing is, that’s not what I’m writing about – but it led to me either landing on some sort of list or being scouted out some other way by GIA (Global Investor Alerts), which claimed to be a victims advocacy firm dealing in legal matters for investors who got ripped off online.

So alright, I look into these guys, and their own stuff seems fairly legit until I get to the public warnings page. A lot of their claims there seem to have zero proof – they link to other authorities to vouch for their accusations but they either aren’t talking about the same company or the proof is somehow else bogus. There are some legitimately shady organizations on their list sure, but I’m pretty sure this is a scam to blackmail their competition. They even have discrete cryptocurrency addresses as a way for victims to “donate”, but I’m sure that these are actually addresses for blackmailed businesses to send a payoff:

NEM: NDZGCA-2TZBDU-WSET4N-4ODBC5-NLRJ44-DJ6ULV-HCFS

While looking deeper into this, I also found that they are already listed on several very common complaint boards for plainly ripping people off by running a recovery scam, telling you that they can get you your money back when in reality they’re just cashing in on the deposits left by hopeful individuals seeking legal retribution for an unrelated scam. https://www.complaintboard.com/global-investor-alerts-l789.html

I’ve lost a ton of money in the past and I don’t plan to have that happen again – DO NOT do business with these people.

Global Investor Alerts global investor alerts publishing fake warnings

I came across a disturbing post online listing dozens and dozens of established financial institutions and organizations as “dangerous” and potential masterminds of fraud. Pages and pages of companies and businesses being described as criminal, negligent, or just incompetent by one Global Investor Alerts page, a company that purports itself to help protect investors and small time businesses from large-scale scams and boiler room schemes that can potentially ruin their lives.

Little did I know at that moment that GIA itself is a lie, however. I did some more research into the webpage after hearing about their legal expertise and their supposed history of helping people get their money back in the case of a major scam by starting a civil lawsuit. I looked this up online and discovered countless postings saying this was false. I contacted some of these people (whose anonymity I will preserve) and they confirmed to me that Global Investor Alerts did NOT help them whatsoever – they advertised their expertise in all things legal and financial, told them that they could get them their money back. Instead, they were targeting scam victims and taking their money AFTER THEY HAD ALREADY BEEN SCAMMED. This sort of behavior made me angry, so I looked into the list of companies GIA blacklisted, I realized that the major bulk of them were just competitors with no online complaints or issues.

In other words, Global Investor Alerts pretends to be a legitimate legal service, all while scamming people out of their money and slandering competitors!

Global Investor Alerts advanced fee scam and slander of legit companies

Recovery scammers framing competitors – do not trust global investor alerts

I recently discovered that there is an international cabal of scammers running a series of websites that all look nearly identical with the absolute same m. O. They pose as legal help for victims of some scam, after first taking the time to research other scammers or even maybe working with them, and then they pretend to start a class action lawsuit to get victims to pay a moderately small sum to help finance what should be their one chance at getting their money back, only they won’t see that sum every again either.

It’s not just that – they smear everyone who discovers their tricks, and put them on a blacklist of “banned sites” that they apparently “vetted”, but really all they’re doing is spreading misinformation about their competitors to gain credibility. Here, have a look: globalinvestoralerts.org is the exact same website as globalinvestoralerts.com before it was shut down due to several customer complaints, and the website and most of its content is either similar or copy pasted from all of these websites:

Boiler-rooms.org
Citicapitalpartnership.com
Economicfrauds.com
Emiliachidester.com
Financialfrauds. Us

They pretend to be experts in the stock trade and legal experts in international fraud, but all they really are is criminals. If they contact you trying to get you to fork over some cash for some kind of legal fund, ignore them they are just looking to scam victims of other scams, thinking they’re separating fools from their money. They have the same fake p. O. Box (4191) on absolutely every single website linking back to fort lauderdale, with the same contact info and everything. Two people i’ve seen getting scammed lost up to $14, 000 to these people. The only name they have on all their websites is emilia chidester, and I am not confident that this woman even exists. The clips of her are strangely edited, so I suspect she is some kind of actress or something. It’s all extremely sketchy, stay away from them.

Is Global Investor Alerts Legit?

Global Investor Alerts earns a trustworthiness rating of 98%

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: Global Investor Alerts stands out for their exceptional legitimacy, according to ComplaintsBoard’s detailed analysis. This highlights Global Investor Alerts's reputation as a trustworthy leader in their field. Customers can rely on Global Investor Alerts's services, assured they're dealing with a highly reputable and fully legitimate company.

The age of Global Investor Alerts's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

Globalinvestoralerts.org has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Globalinvestoralerts.org has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • Website's registrar is popular among scammers, it means that a significant number of scammers have used that registrar to register domain names for their fraudulent websites. This can indicate that the registrar has lax verification processes, making it easier for scammers to register domains without providing accurate information.
  • Globalinvestoralerts.org has relatively low traffic compared to other websites, it could be due to a niche focus, but could also indicate a potential lack of traffic and popularity. The globalinvestoralerts.org may offer a niche product or service that is only of interest to a smaller audience.
  • Global Investor Alerts protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Global Investor Alerts. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

Global Investor Alerts Fraud Financial Assistance and Scam

Regarding the website "Global Investor Alerts, " They are not giving real assistance to victims of scams and boiler rooms. It is also clear that they do not file claims to authorities. They asked me to sign 2 documents and pay $ 500.00 USD on their bank in Cyprus. But they just keep on asking more money, now they are asking $ 1, 400.00 USD again. I got scammed by this website again (www.globalinvestoralerts.com) also but I do not recommend using this site to get legal advice or services. This site is also known for taking peoples money and then not helping them. They are not real lawyers or they would not be on a forum. In order to get real advice and get your money back from the scammers just go to legal counsil in your area and seek help. My lawyer was very helpful in doing this and also said not to use this online services stuff as they are not reputable as he knows of them.

Fake Legal Experts Global Investor Alerts Are Blackmailing the Competition

Global Investor Alerts is a LIE

These people target innocent victims of serious recovery scams and advance fee scams such as boiler rooms, and then try and tell them that they can get them their money back through a class action lawsuit. GIA (http://globalinvestoralerts.org/) claims to be made up of experts of international fraud and financial fraud, and they state that they help victims reclaim what they lost and then some.

The truth, however, is that Global Investor Alerts.org is just ANOTHER VERSION of an already shut-down SCAM WEBSITE called Globalinvestoralerts.com, and that they run the exact same MO as a number of other affiliated websites ALL IN THE SAME NETWORK and in the same business of finding/creating victims of scam, and then ripping them off a second time. See for yourself

Don’t be a sucker like me! I lost $550 before I realized that they were asking me to pay for legal fees that did not even exist!

My uncle lost over $4, 500 to these people last June after losing money to a damn advance payment scheme through Wall Street. Some fake Internet boiler room looking very legit through NY cold called him and convinced him to stick some of his retirement fund into a “very promising company”, and he ended up with less money than he started out with (they were worthless shares).

Then, Global Investor Alerts http://globalinvestoralerts.org/ contacted him presenting themselves as an “international authority on financial fraud” and they told him they could help him recover all of his funds and then some through a class action lawsuit launched through the group’s “legal team”. Fast forward to a week ago, and he contacted me telling me that he thinks he’s been scammed again. Sure enough, GIA show up online with more than enough warnings, tied to other groups and websites run by either the same people or affiliated individuals, and they’re all in it together to scam gullible people out of incredible sums of money.

This has to STOP. If you or someone you know is ever contacted by Global Investor Alerts, Boiler-Rooms.org, or any other organization affiliated with the websites in the link above (including Emilia Chidester) then STAY FAR AWAY and DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY

People, please be aware, globalinvestor.com IS a scam. It's just a website with nothing legitimate behind it.
The person behind it allegedly is a 'Max Becker' who writes on his Linkedin profile that he is the CEO. He also writes to be the CTO of a company called Ultrascan Advanced Global Investigations. The person behind Ultrascan is Frank Engelsman. He is Dutch and does exist. Ultrascan claims to help victims of 419 (Nigerian advanced fee fraud) but that appears also to be a scam.

To stop these people, if you have had any contact with them, please post as much information as possible, such as bank accounts, phone numbers, names, etc.

I have the feeling that some people are trying to put globalinvestoralerts in a bad spotlight.
They really don’t deserve this.
I am also a victim of a boiler room operation and I can tell you that they did a great job so far.
They never asked me for more money and they are very open with all mail traffic and they keep me updated on a regular base. You also need to understand that they need some money to start your case because they have a lot of expenses.
I can also tell you that they work close together with lawyers, police, Interpol, FBI and judges in different countries and thanks to all them I will see my money back.
If your lawyer is saying that getting the money back is not happening then he can be right for some cases.
If the money is already transferred to other accounts then it will be very difficult but even then globalinvestoralerts can force banks to block all accounts related to this boiler room and you would have a chance.
You need to be patient and try not to judge too fast.

M. Honest, you are correct, we are the real global investors alert, the ones they speak of are clones and copy cats, using www.globalinvestorsalert.com this is not us, we dont do small scams loans or solicit money, our deals are huge $20 to $100 billion dollar contracts with governments, investors, farmers that are protected. Thanks for seeing the difference, they use a .gov also which is not us and a .net happens to banks, cell phone companies, this is why People have to use "official site" on the internet now..

Hi all, I wish I see this page a few weeks ago when I was contacted by Global Investor Alerts. I am victim of a boiler room and lost nearly Eur 100.000 since 2010, so I was very careful listen to Global Investor Alerts when they tell me they can get my money back to me.
I have paid over $5.000 to www.globalinvestoralerts.com through there account in Cyprus in the last few weeks because I beleive they are good guys wanting to help me. I now know they are bad guys only wanting me send more money like the boiler room that stole my money last year.
I too speak with my associate (lawyer) but he say that getting my money back is not happening because the globalinvestoralerts.com and the boiler room who take my money first are good at hiding in many countries.
My lawyer say that as my money is lost I should forget it and not send more money to anyone saying they can get back for me, as they lie also. But he also say that I can stop more people already frauded by the boiler rooms from sending more money to Global Investor Alerts like I did a few weeks ago, but we need more people who also get frauded by globalinvestoralerts.com to join with me to fight them.
I am not interest in money from anyone, I pay my lawyer and he does work for me but I need other people to join me to complain and make business very difficult for them. If you are victim of Global Investor Alerts scam like me, please contact me with details and I tell you what we can do to stop them hurting other people. If someone like you know how to do this a few weeks ago maybe I am stopped from sending money to the globalinvestoralerts.com
