Mapleridge Scam Warning: platform.mapleridge.me Panel

Mapleridge is an online operation that manages the investment account through a panel at platform.mapleridge.me. This domain, which is the subject of a warning by the Australian market regulator ASIC, was added to an international warning database in November 2026.
🖥️ How Is the Mapleridge Panel Used?
Offering a trading screen on a separate "platform" subdomain of the main domain means that, in schemes of this kind, the investor watches the money not in a real market but on a screen controlled by the firm itself. The flow in such schemes is usually as follows:
- An "investment expert" who makes contact through advertising or by telephone asks for a small starting amount.
- A rapidly growing balance is shown on the panel, and pressure is put on for further deposits.
- At a withdrawal request, a tax, commission or "account verification" fee is demanded.
