Shown with [.] so they are not clickable. Scam operations swap domains often; a new site with the same name or design is very likely the same operation.
What these warnings mean
- AFM: The AFM warns that the party has no licence to offer these services in the Netherlands, or passes on a warning issued by another regulator.
- CBI: The Central Bank of Ireland says the firm is not authorised to provide financial services in Ireland and warns consumers against dealing with it.
If you already sent money
- Stop paying. A demand for a “fee”, “tax” or “unlock charge” before a withdrawal is part of the scam, not a step towards your money.
- Save messages, screenshots, wallet addresses and transaction IDs.
- Tell your bank, card issuer or exchange today: card payments and bank transfers can sometimes be stopped or disputed if you act fast.
- Report it:
- Netherlands: AFM, Fraudehelpdesk. More for Netherlands
- Ireland: An Garda Síochána: fraud, Central Bank of Ireland: unauthorised firms. More for Ireland
- Anywhere else: your national police cybercrime unit and your financial regulator. How to report a crypto scam.
Anyone who contacts you offering to recover the money for an upfront fee is almost always running a second scam. See how to get money back after a crypto scam.

Questions
What have regulators said about certainvest.io?
certainvest.io is on 2 official warning lists: AFM (Netherlands), CBI (Ireland). The first warning we hold is dated 23 Nov 2022. Each regulator's own words are linked above; they range from 'not authorised here' to suspected fraud, and a listing is a public warning, not a court ruling. We have not dealt with certainvest.io ourselves. Read the official notices before you send any money.
What should I do if I already sent money to certainvest.io?
Stop paying immediately, including any 'fee', 'tax' or 'release charge' you are asked for before a withdrawal: that request is itself a common second stage of the scam. Save every message, wallet address and transaction ID, tell your bank or exchange at once, and report it (Netherlands: AFM, Fraudehelpdesk; Ireland: An Garda Síochána: fraud, Central Bank of Ireland: unauthorised firms). Be wary of anyone who contacts you offering to recover the money for a fee.
