Hey again!
Got some news, kinda good. Convinced my buddy it's definitely a scam. It was Difficult, because he dropped 3K$ and got back 3,300$, so he's still skeptical. Not sure if the scammers will be satisfied with 300 bucks in the victim's account. We'll see.
About sharing that domain some of you asked about, I've got reservations. Let me break it down.
The domain is the name of a somewhat known exchange/wallet plus some random characters and .com.
Not spilling it here 'cause, like I said earlier, it doesn't show up in any Google search or social media. I suspect it's a custom-made domain for this scam, so they can easily find threads like this one and check if the victim's onto them.
I think it's reason enough not to disclose it. I'll continue to provide updates as things go on. If everything finish without major issues, I'll share the domain, but I want to ensure my mate is out of danger first.
Anyway, thanks once again for all the responses!

Hello! Thank you very much, everyone, for the responses!
I've continued investigating, and it looks like a scam. Initially, I was surprised because the information came from a close friend who confirmed that he was selling small amounts of Tether and receiving deposits in the bank.
I performed a whois lookup on the domain, and it's from late 2023, the first red flag. That's why it's not indexed, and there's no mention of it anywhere. When I asked him where he got this exchange, he said a person from a crypto channel on Telegram contacted him—second red flag. This person has no references beyond the Telegram channel and is asking him to invest more money while urging him to keep the operations secret.
I believe it's the kind of scam where they build trust by letting him make esmall withdraws to make him invest a huge amount of money, and then they disappear.
I discussed all this with him yesterday, but he really wants to believe that it's not a scam. Let's see how it turns out.
P.S.: I'm not my friend xD

Hello! I've heard about a very mysterious cryptocurrency buying/selling portal. I haven't found its name indexed on any search engine, social media platform, or internet forum. Registration is exclusively by invitation, and as far as I know, they are buying Tether at 10% above its value.
The topic has sparked my curiosity. I don't want to share the URL because, since I haven't seen it anywhere on the entire internet, I don't want to be the first one to write it down
Do you know about these types of portals, or can you provide more information on how and why they operate like this? Who is involved, and why are they selling Tether at these values?
