Breaks Wealth: Promises on breakswealth.com are unreliable
What do bewildered visitors read on breakswealth.com? "Our founders were aware of the importance of responsible investments when they established the company over 7 years ago. For us, it has always been about thinking long-term and considering corporate performance from a broader perspective.

Breaks Wealth: Who is behind it?
The Breaks Wealth websites do not provide an imprint, making it difficult to identify the perpetrators. The domain data for the websites breakswealth.com, bkwealthltd.com, and breakslimited.finance does not indicate who registered them. The websites were registered on 13/05/2021, 27/05/2022, and 14/12/2022, respectively, with NameCheap, Inc. The domain owners hide behind the Icelandic anonymization service Withheld for Privacy ehf.

 

But who operates Breaks Wealth?
The perpetrators often operate multiple websites where they offer their fraudulent business model. It was not surprising that in this case, there are several domains attributed to the same group of criminals. Not only did multiple domains related to Breaks Wealth appear, but we also established connections to the enigmatic platform kay-trading.com.

 

But who operates this construct?

However, this does not provide any insight into the platform's operators or their actual location. The provided address is 70 Market Street, Tottington, Bury, Lancashire BL83LJ, in the United Kingdom. It is a place with around 10,000 inhabitants, not far from Manchester. It is a beautiful, peaceful town, but we could not find any traces of a company named Breaks Wealth there, as it is just a fictitious address.

 

Breaks Wealth: International Investigations
The global search for Breaks Wealth in relevant registries leads to one result. A Breaks Wealth Management Limited can be found in the United Kingdom's trade register, registration number 09170812.

Breaks Wealth: Investment Fraud Scheme
Investment fraud follows the same pattern: Investors start with a small sum, usually 250 euros, and quickly see that amount grow, leading them to invest larger sums. Conflicts arise when investors want to withdraw their money because suddenly, taxes, commissions, fees, or other payments need to be made. Unfortunately, most investors realize too late that they have fallen victim to investment fraud, and there was never any intention of returning their money.

 

Breaks Wealth: What Help is Available for Investment Fraud?
Many defrauded investors wonder how to act in cases of investment fraud because filing a criminal complaint hardly makes sense, as criminal complaints primarily serve law enforcement, not the recovery of funds. What kind of help is available for investment fraud, and how can affected investors get their money back?A lawyer specializing in investment fraud knows how to trace the money because, as the saying goes, money doesn't disappear; it just moves elsewhere. At present, it can be added that it is complex, but with the right tools, it is possible to systematically trace digital money, even if it has been transferred through a cryptocurrency exchange like Bitcoin.
