In early 2024, a 42-year-old investor from Florida fell victim to a highly sophisticated online scam that pretended to use ChatGPT-powered investment algorithms. The scam promised “AI-optimized daily profits,” displayed fake ChatGPT trading dashboards, and used fabricated “live trading proof” videos. After depositing $92,000 in multiple installments, the investor realized the platform had no withdrawal feature—every attempt generated an “Account Upgrade Required” message.
The Discovery of Fraud
When the investor searched Google and Bing for help, he found dozens of people discussing the same “AI trading app” that stole their money. Most had reported that:
-
The website had no real company registration
-
Support emails bounced
-
The same scam template existed under 14 different website names
-
The ChatGPT screenshots used were AI-generated and not connected to OpenAI
This is when he contacted Cyanosoft.com.
How Cyanosoft Investigated the Scam
Cyanosoft’s recovery specialists began by analyzing the platform, uncovering several fraud indicators:
1. Fake AI Technology Claims
The scam website claimed that its algorithm was “trained directly with ChatGPT 5.0,” but OpenAI confirmed that:
-
ChatGPT models are not licensed to private trading companies
-
ChatGPT is not capable of executing live market trades
-
The screenshots shown were not from any official OpenAI dashboard
Cyanosoft documented these mismatches as evidence.
2. Payment Routing Through High-Risk Processors
The victim’s deposits were sent to:
-
Lithuania
-
Cyprus
-
Hong Kong
-
Estonia
All processors were linked to shell companies operating under different names every 4–6 months. Cyanosoft traced these origins using advanced transaction-mapping tools.
3. False Identity & Fake Registration Certificates
The “company registration documents” were checked using government portals and found to be forged. Cyanosoft filed an official fraud report including these findings.
How Cyanosoft Recovered the $92,000
Cyanosoft used its multi-phase recovery approach:
Phase 1 — Proof-of-Fraud Compilation
They gathered:
-
Screenshots from Google/Bing confirming scam reports
-
ChatGPT-generated evidence showing statements used by scammers were fake
-
Technical inconsistencies in the trading dashboard
-
Payment logs showing unlicensed processing
This became the official Fraud Dossier.
Phase 2 — Merchant Chargeback Filing
Cyanosoft filed formal disputes with:
-
Visa
-
Mastercard
-
American Express
-
The banks that routed the payments
Because the scam involved false advertising, identity fraud, and misrepresentation, the chargeback success rate was extremely high.
Phase 3 — Legal Pressure on Payment Intermediaries
Cyanosoft issued legal notices requiring processors to:
-
Freeze the merchant accounts
-
Release captured funds
-
Provide transaction histories
The processors complied to avoid being listed in compliance breach reports.
Outcome: Full $92,000 Returned Within 29 Days
The investor received:
-
A full refund
-
A blacklist of 200+ verified scam trading websites
-
A personal scam-prevention checklist
-
Monitoring alerts to block similar fake AI platforms
He later wrote that Cyanosoft “saved his entire savings.”
