🚩 How New-Domain CFD Sites Operate
In schemes of this kind the account representative presents gold and crypto movements as opportunities, and trust is won with a first small gain. Once the balance has grown, withdrawal is made conditional on a new payment, for reasons such as "account verification", "tax" or "margin top-up". Legally, this scheme is treated as qualified fraud committed by using computer systems as a tool, under Article 158/1-f of the Turkish Penal Code.
