Description

We strongly advise against investing with the Downmarkets platform. We have received numerous reports from users who were unable to withdraw their deposited funds. Contact with the platform’s representatives typically ceases the moment a withdrawal request is made. Additionally, the website lacks transparent corporate information and regulatory licenses. All evidence points to this being a financial scam.

I dealt with Dowmarkets in 2021. Their modus operandi is to persuade you to deposit money, let you make some profit, and then the analyst goes on vacation. Someone else takes over the client as a replacement, and in two days, you lose everything because the quotes went down. I warn everyone not to get drawn into these games. The analysts use fake names (incidentally, Polish names, but they speak with a Russian accent), and they are extremely nice and convincing. At first, they called every day, but once I lost the money, they went silent, and the email address became inactive. I reported it to the police and the prosecutor's office, and I initiated a cash back service at the bank. I achieved nothing because I transferred the money voluntarily. I lost $250. DO NOT BELIEVE ANYONE FROM DOWMARKETS!! SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was also scammed, just like most people writing here. At first, everything was positive and beautiful, but over time it started getting worse. The negative trades became more frequent, the analyst backed out more and more, yet they kept urging me to make deposits. In total, I deposited $1,000 via bank transfer. Is there any chance of getting the money back? Is it worth reporting to the police or the prosecutor's office? Please reply because I don't know what to do myself.

Everyone hustles the best they can. They chose this path. I also went through these perturbations: first the persuasion which I succumbed to, then a mini bull market, and finally a massive bear market down to the balance level. It's a good thing it was only a 250 USD personal contribution. In the end, lessons cost money; it's just a pity it's so expensive and detrimental to one's mental health. Knowing life, any efforts to recover the initial investment will fail, which is why I'm not even trying—my health is more important. Greetings to everyone, wishing you success, but with a different "...markets" and after more thorough checks.

I spoke with another branch of theirs; it's probably all the same anyway. A guy from the Legal Department was TRYING TO CONVINCE me (the point is he talks tough and won't even let you interrupt; I don't understand the point of this or if it's a method at all??) that he listened to my conversation with the consultant and asked what documents I wanted from them (I don't want anything from them). He gave me some information but refused to prove that what he said was true. He asked why I don't want to invest with them, what the REAL reason is (certainly not that I don't have money). From this conversation, it emerged that I had to give them a reason (even though they know better anyway :-)). Because if I went to a supermarket and said I didn't want to buy their milk (yeah, right, I always list to the cashier the things I don't want to buy from them), he would have to get an explanation from me as to WHY. Overall, their methods are astonishing.

Hello everyone. I have a similar situation with this platform because earlier I invested 500 and started to win somewhat, and suddenly BAM! Ms. Wiesia tells me there was a drop and I am in the negative. They are asking me for more, but over 1,000. And, of course, they are harassing me. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Hello everyone. I also deposited money with this company, and I get the feeling that things are starting to go very wrong, although at first, it was great, of course. I haven't lost my money yet, but some trades are in the negative. I would like to ask for help on how I can back out and recover my money because, reading your opinions and comments, I think that's exactly what's going to happen. Please help or advise me on what to do and how.

Hello. I deposited money into Downmarkets 4 days ago. I haven't started investing yet. I only have it deposited in the crypto wallet (which they unfortunately know about). An analyst from their side has already spoken to me. I didn't like the conversation because he claimed this was no joke and that I had invested. I haven't invested anything; so far, I haven't decided to invest in any assets. Moreover, I admitted that I want to withdraw the money, and my automatic withdrawal is blocked. I don't know if it was active before. How can I recover the money from them?

I have a question: will I be able to at least recover a part of the money??? I don't know if the analyst will be willing to return my invested money... I'm counting on some advice from you guys because I don't know what to do myself...

Hello, at the end of April, I opened an account with DOWMARKETS, and unfortunately, I passed the verification ;((. I deposited 3,000 USD, and at first, it was fine. Now, with the VIP analyst, there are open trades that are disastrously tanking; the account is almost 2,000 USD IN THE NEGATIVE. Of course, I can't do anything anymore!!!! Please let me know if I can only lose my deposited funds, or will I have to pay off the negative balance when the trades close? This is a disaster – please help me on what to do to get out of this and recover as much of the deposit as possible. I am devastated; this was my last cash :(((((.

Stay away from this company, they are scammers. After 3 days, I lost everything I deposited. To this day, I haven't received a refund of my invested money, even though I asked them to transfer my money back to my account while I still hadn't lost anything. I was told they would transfer it in 3 days. After 3 days, there was nothing left in my account because supposedly the currency I was trading—of course on the recommendation of my advisor—instead of bringing the promised profit, strangely brought losses, and there was nothing left in my account. It's been 2 months now, and to this day I haven't received my cash back, nor have they closed my accounts. I can still log in and trade – it's just a shock.

It's true, they are Russian-Ukrainian scammers. They pulled out 750 USD, and within 5 days, everything disappeared from my account because the analyst told me to do the opposite—to sell instead of buy. Scammers. The analyst was ANNA NEUMAAN.

Just scammers, plain and simple. Someone accidentally provided my phone number on their website, but all the other details were wrong – name, surname, email. They kept calling me all week until I finally talked to them for a moment to see what they really wanted, and it's exactly as everyone wrote above – terrible pressure to make a deposit, some bonuses, and other nonsense. I work as a programmer, and I knew right away that what they were saying and what they wanted from me was one massive scam. Ms. Gabriela's Ukrainian accent completely ruled her out at the beginning, but I listened to how sweetly she lied. :) I definitely ADVISE AGAINST them – don't give them any data or anything.

I also received a fraudulent negative trade. My deposit funds had been dropping for several days. The lady called to say everything was fine. And then today I look, and there are no funds; it says "top up your deposit." I write to these consultants – zero response. I am terrified. I was assured that $250 was enough and I wouldn't have to add anything more, and now there's this circus. I feel hot just thinking about it. How stupid and naive I am. It makes me sad that people can deceive each other like this. It's a disaster. But this isn't the end of my adventure with cryptocurrencies; maybe someone knows and can recommend a good place to invest.

They just refunded my nearly $250 – nearly, because unfortunately, I lost $12 on a trade. The analyst, Ms. Agnieszka Artymowicz, tried very hard to persuade me to stay, saying we would make well over $500 in two weeks. She spent a good hour talking to me, telling me not to quit and that they aren't scammers. But I didn't let myself be manipulated and consistently asked for my money back. It worked. I got my money back. I blocked my payment card, and they just sent me a new one. I hope they won't call again.

I deposited $800 and accepted the loss. What you are writing here is the absolute truth. Now I can't close the web platform. And my debt has grown to $1,000. I don't care about them, but I'm worried they might send a debt collection agency after me. What do you think about this?

Unfortunately, I also fell victim to these criminals. I deposited $250, and then Ms. Agnieszka Artymowicz (supposedly the best analyst) graced me with a $125 funding bonus... I don't know if that was supposed to be some sort of incentive. In any case, after what everyone is writing here, I now know I was also scammed. Today, another female analyst called me, urging me to deposit $500 so I could receive text messages with the most favorable exchange rates. Of course, I didn't deposit it. That's too much for me. I don't believe it. I fell for it once, but not a second time! I would like to ask anyone who managed to get their money back to contact me.

Scammers! They tricked me into depositing 250 dollars. A consultant with a Russian accent asked me to send a copy of my credit card and ID! After a few minutes, phone calls from the Netherlands and Sweden started coming in. I answered once, and they told me to install remote control software on my computer, so I quickly hung up. They called about 100 more times that day! I had to block my card and identity documents. Please be careful! Someone needs to deal with them because they can't just rob people with impunity like this....

Watch out for Dowmarkets. They persuaded me to withdraw $250. I did exactly that. I bought about 2 Bitcoin shares, and after 2 hours, I had no money. They kept urging me to deposit more. My balance went negative, -$35. No contact with support. Consultant with a Russian or Ukrainian accent. Blatant scam. I'm warning you.

These are currency tricksters. You only lose money. Under the guise of better earnings, they ask for a deposit of 10,000, or at least 500 or 1,000 if not. ?????????? Mr. Sławomir offers wallets full of money and introduces himself as an analyst or manager. Do not fall for this broker.

What the previous people wrote about scams and the inability to contact them once you fall for it and deposit is the Holy Truth. They lured me with a 100% bonus on my deposit. Verification took over a week even though the deposit was made (1,000 EUR). They were overly meticulous about the Credit Card; I think I had to send them photos 4 times (the lady wanted it so detailed you could read the small letters). Yesterday, the bank blocked the card because someone tried to manipulate it – looks like it was them, as this has never happened to me before. After a week (with the staff always polite, available on demand, and annoyingly persistent with calls you can later never return), instead of a 1,000 EUR bonus, I only got 800. I initiated 5 trades with my "account manager", claiming they were 100/100 accurate??? And then the manager vanished into thin air. I tried trading on my own (the manager had assured me not to cancel any trades because they would eventually turn a profit anyway), but all trades except one drove the balance into the negative so fast that after less than two days (with prompts to "top up" the account in the meantime), the trades were closed, leaving a small negative balance of about a dozen EUR. And now there's another message to top up the account and take advantage of another bonus, this time 35% for who knows what, but even if I wanted to use it, there's no contact anymore. Beware of this plague, because in my opinion, they are sophisticated and perfidious scammers. I am reporting this case to the KNF (Polish Financial Supervision Authority) and the prosecutor's office. I doubt it will do any good, but I'll try. The strangest thing is that they all have Polish first and last names, but a very strong Russian accent (judging by the spelling in the emails, they are Ukrainians).

I fell for it. No matter what you do, you end up in the red, and on top of that, a message pops up asking you to add more funds because your balance is running low. And when I closed the trades, the analyst lady called me with complaints, saying I did the wrong thing, that I should have kept riding the loss because sometimes that's what you do to eventually turn a profit, as these are long-term transactions.

Watch out for Dowmarkets. I was persuaded to deposit $259, and for the next two weeks, they kept pushing me to deposit $10,000. Instead of advising and helping with investments, they seem to aim for you to lose money quickly. There's no way to contact them back; phone numbers are blocked, and only they can call you. When I still had funds on the platform, they called several times a day to convince me to make larger investments, explaining it would mean bigger profits and that they wanted to help me earn. I told them let's see how it goes with smaller amounts first. It quickly turned out the investments were bad, and I rapidly lost the funds (I emphasize that I only invested with the agreement of the advisor or analyst, whom they claimed was good). After I categorically stated I wouldn't invest anything more, the calls suddenly stopped. I do not recommend them; watch out for these extortionists and scammers. I should add that the entire staff speaks with a Russian accent, which is very strange.

Warning!!!! Scam!!! Acting in collusion with scammers, a website named Puls Biznesu has an article claiming that Lewandowski made money by investing on the stock exchange. It encourages investing by providing registration links to a so-called trading platform, Dowmarkets. They are scammers – I made a mistake and transferred funds to them. No return phone calls, no way to verify anything. They claim they will call you back, but when you try to return the call to the displayed Warsaw number, the operator says the number doesn't exist. And it goes on like this. Only they contact you – you have no chance of reaching them. They manipulate the platform – e.g., you place a buy order, it starts dropping; as soon as you close the position and place a sell order, it immediately starts rising, and you are in the red again. This happened more than once on various positions. Some slick guy from their side, claiming to be Raymond, the head of the financial department, told me straight up that I won't get my remaining funds back. He says with a smile, "What money? There is no money of yours." There is also Karina Szymańska, claiming to be a consultant; her email is [email protected], and there's also Justyna. Basically, a whole criminal group acting in collusion. They are not Polish; they speak with a clear accent. They tell a fairy tale about funds taking 17 days to return, claiming that's fine, and other nonsense. I have to report this crime to the police – there is no other way. They must be stopped, or they will harm others. Be careful.
