Sollari are huge scammers!
I am posting this on behalf of my elderly 78 year old Dad who fell victim to scammers. The following is in his words...

A person called Kyle Denver from Plus 700 persistently contacted me from November 2022 until I agreed to pay GBP250 for trader training in the Plus700 Academy on 17 February 2023. The number that was used to Whatsapp with me from Kyle was *******048.

Following this, a woman calling herself Megan Taylor contacted me on 22 February 2023, only 5 days later after I had paid Plus700/Kyle Denver, so there was likely a link between the two people. For the majority of the duration of this scam, I spoke to Megan most nights until late July when she stopped responding. This person Megan Taylor, whether or not that was her name, spoke to me on the phone a few times and it was a woman that I was speaking to on the phone. She also mentioned in one of her Whatsapp messages on 14 July 2023 that she was on the Hong Kong exchange trading floor at 7.23pm. Perhaps this can be checked to see if there was anyone there at that time? The first number that she was Whatsapping from was *******542, and then she was chatting with me on a Whatsapp number that was a business number and silent. She also used a Hong Kong Whatsapp number for a while as well. This was *******702. Megan presented herself as a single mother that had a daughter Maxine, and she said she was a contractor to a company called Invested-Capital. She also used Anydesk software on my laptop to go in and organise the trades for me.

I had login details and an account with Invested-Capital, and there were instructions provided to me to set this up and also login details attached to this email. Also, to open the account with Invested Capital I had to send them a picture of me with my drivers licence so they have that information as well. They hooked me in with graphs trending up for my investment and a fluctuating balance that grew steadily. I tried eventually to get money out, but I couldn't get any money out. There was a response saying that I would receive the money within 5 days but obviously this did not eventuate. Megan was uncontactable during that time for 2-3 weeks, then she came back to say she had been sick and that she was annoyed at Invested Capital for not following up with me in her absence "or any of her other 42 clients". At that time, she said Invested Capital went bankrupt and she was trying to get out the money for her 42 clients. She told me that she had already gotten out over USD1,000,000 for 40 other clients. She then told me that I needed to pay Sollari Escrow Services to help me get the money back from Invested Capital...

Eventually Nicholas Wendall called me and then emailed me back and forth. He said he was the Finance Manager of Sollari Escrow Services of Donecs LLC that could help me get the money in Invested Capital out of escrow. Megan also said that I needed to do this with Nicholas (pay USD1500) as a service fee to withdraw the money from Invested Capital. Sollari Escrow Services (brand of Donecs LLC) is supposed to be incorporated and a registered office in St Vincent and The Grenadines. Nicholas called me once but I can't find any record of that. I think it was a private number.

Cassandra called me around 03/04 July 2023 to represent herself as someone from Invested Capital who was helping with their liquidation, but I don't have a record of her number. Megan Taylor referred to her in the Whatsapp logs around that time so there is a link. Cassandra was just asking me to patiently wait for the money to come through. It never arrived. I truly believe that all of these entities/individuals were working together and I fell for the con. I feel so hurt and ashamed that I lost a lot of my savings. I am a 78 year old man and shame on these con artists for doing it to me, and likely many others. If anyone else reading this recognises any of the names mentioned, please comment on the review with your experiences. Maybe if enough of us do this, we may be able to hold these people to account.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid Sollari like the plague. They are definite scammers.
