Victim Complaint Exposes GESTION DU PATRIMOINE's Fraud: Intelligent Robot Scam and Deposit Theft

GESTION DU PATRIMOINE, an unscrupulous brokerage, had its fraudulent behavior exposed in a customer complaint. A trader from Canada reported losing over $3,000 to this broker, which was charged as a fee for artificial intelligence robot services.

Client Identifies GESTION DU PATRIMOINE’s “Rodrigue Dubois” and “Jay Duval” as Scammers

According to a client who submitted a complaint with BrokersView last week, a Financial Analyst and broker named “Rodrigue Dubois” helped him open an account with GESTION DU PATRIMOINE. “Rodrigue Dubois” persuaded the client to buy over $15,000 in USDT to invest in cryptocurrencies with artificial intelligence. The client invested over $3,000 (25% of the fees) for the purchase of an intelligent robot. Ultimately, the client lost a total of $3,190 deposited in his account before the scammer disappeared.

The Canadian client sent over 80 messages to customer service but received no response. "They are all gone. Rodrigue Dubois used the numbers +1781 499 2351 and +44 131 208 6419 before disappearing," the client reported.

In the updated complaint on December 17, the client stated that the last person he contacted was "Jay Duval," who had sent him a lengthy welcome message because of his deposit of over $3,000.

GESTION DU PATRIMOINE Allegedly Hacked into Client Device and Account

Email records provided by the client show that “Rodrigue Dubois” claimed to be his personal assistant and instructed him to download an app via the link http://www.supremocontrol.com/, allegedly to facilitate their work together on the platform.

Supremo is a remote desktop software designed for technical support, enabling access and control of remote PCs and servers. Scammers often exploit such software to gain access to victims' devices, allowing them to steal personal information, make unauthorized transactions, install malware, manipulate trading accounts and investments, and perform other malicious activities.

The client reported that his account was hacked every time he tried to access GESTION DU PATRIMOINE’s website, likely due to remote manipulation by the broker or the website being down. The website now displays a "Not Secure" warning and is inaccessible, indicating that the company has likely absconded with clients' funds.

Unregulated GESTION DU PATRIMOINE Leaves Victims No Recourse

According to BrokersView records, the broker previously claimed to be based in Canada, but no matching information was found with the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC). 

On February 19, 2024, the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV) added GESTION DU PATRIMOINE to its warning list for providing unauthorized investment services. 

As one of the victims, the complainant has been unable to reach the scammers despite his efforts. BrokersView is attempting to convey the complaint to the platform, but the chances of recovering the funds are slim as the broker is not subject to any supervisory framework. BrokersView strongly advises avoiding any interaction or transaction with unlicensed financial services providers.

Bottomline

Scammers often create fake trading websites, misuse legitimate company details, and use anonymous identities. They frequently claim to be regulated, sometimes relying on offshore registration, making them difficult to trace. GESTION DU PATRIMOINE's domain https://gestiondupatrimoine.net/ can’t be accessed currently, but scammers, including “Rodrigue Dubois” and “Jay Duval,” may resurface with new identities to target more victims.

Never give unknown individuals remote access to your devices. Be alert to unsolicited technical support or requests for device access, especially involving investments. Always conduct thorough due diligence before dealing with any broker to ensure they are licensed by recognized regulators. Legitimate brokers never ask for unreasonable fees, so be wary of such charges, especially if you are pressured to pay for services without clear explanations.
