Mancotrade Scam Warning: Swiss Claim, Referral Plan

Mancotrade is a website that presents itself as an investment company based in Switzerland and gathers members at mancotrade.com with the promise of "long-term profit returns". The structure of the site has the typical look of return programmes that run on a "plan" paid into and a referral record tied to the inviting member.

In short: The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) of New Zealand added Mancotrade to its warning list in October 2026. Mancotrade is not authorised in Türkiye by the Capital Markets Board (SPK). Tracing money sent to programmes of this kind is legally possible.

💸 The Return Plan and the Referral Scheme

The registration form expects the new member to be linked to an "upline", that is, the person who invited them. In structures of this kind the pattern generally runs as follows:

  • A "plan" is bought with cryptocurrency, and the panel shows daily earnings.
  • A commission is promised to whoever brings in new members; the first payouts are covered from new entries.
  • When the inflow of money slows, withdrawals stop and the site closes.

🔍 Traces Found on the Site

  • mancotrade.com was registered in June 2026, while the copyright notice on the site shows the previous year.
  • Only the address [email protected] and a live chat box are offered for contact; the address given is Chêne-Bougeries (Switzerland).
  • A "Corporate Advisory" label belonging to another brand has been left on the registration page, which points to the same template being used under different names.
  • The rules page states that the site is not a licensed bank or securities firm and that every investment is treated as a "private transaction".
  • Entry in the FMA warning list

In Türkiye, authorised institutions can be checked in the SPK list of intermediary institutions; unauthorised capital markets activity is subject to sanctions under Article 109 of Capital Markets Law No. 6362.

🔗 Other Platforms Using the Same Method

The pattern of buying a package and waiting for daily earnings has appeared in many of the schemes we have examined before:

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mancotrade really a company registered in Switzerland?

The site gives no company registry number, licence or supervisory authority; only an address is written. In Türkiye, there is no SPK authorisation.

Does the person who invited me to the site also earn money?

The "upline" field on the registration form shows that the inviting person is linked to the new member. In programmes of this kind, those who invite others are often victims of the same scheme.

Are Corporate Advisory and Mancotrade the same scheme?

The appearance of this name on Mancotrade's registration page suggests that the two sites were produced from the same ready-made template; whether they share an operator needs separate examination.

I cannot get back the money I put into Mancotrade. What are my options?
