ZachXBT reports that the team behind Fintoch, a platform that promises 1% daily returns to its investors, has moved funds from Binance Smart Chain (BSC) to multiple addresses on the Tron and Ethereum networks, preventing its users from withdrawing funds.
He also revealed that Fintoch's CEO, Bobby Lambert, is a paid actor with a false identity and that the Singapore Government and Morgan Stanley have previously warned of this scam scheme.
ZachXBT said Fintoch is mainly targeting people in financially illiterate regions and urged its followers to be cautious and do their own research before investing in any crypto project.
