What are some examples of Scams?

Spoof/Phishing Emails or Discord DMs Scam:

Scammers can and will create lookalike Simulated Trader programs, complete with professional-looking emails, websites, banners and pop-ups.

Account Passing/Management Services Scam:

One of the most prevalent scams is the promise of guaranteed passing or unrealistic simulated profits without risk.


So how do you prevent being taken advantage of?

  • Verify the legitimacy of the program by checking for the origin of the sender and if unsure, please contact us immediately via Live Support Chat.

Some additional Tips

Trust Your Intuition- Listen to your intuition; it's a valuable asset. If something seems suspicious or too good to be true, rely on your instincts and delve deeper before taking any action.

Protect Your Email: Exercise caution when disclosing your email address publicly, particularly on social media platforms, online forums, or in response to dubious inquiries. Scammers frequently exploit email addresses as a launching pad for their deceptive activities.

Stay Wary: Always exercise caution when interacting with unsolicited messages, emails, or texts, even if they appear to be from reputable sources. Avoid clicking on links or downloading files from unknown senders, and never share sensitive information unless you have verified the authenticity of the request.

Check with us: If you receive an email or message purportedly from TopTier Trader that seems peculiar or raises any concerns, we urge you to contact us directly through our official support channels to authenticate its legitimacy.

Keep yourself Aware: Stay informed about prevalent online scams and phishing tactics. Awareness serves as the primary defense against potential threats.
