Our refund process for ecomtrade24.com victims
- Stop paying immediately. Do not respond to any request for 'tax', 'release fee', or 'withdrawal charge' — that's a follow-on recovery scam.
- Preserve your evidence (60 seconds). Save every screenshot, WhatsApp message, email and bank transfer receipt from ecomtrade24.com. This becomes the core of your bank complaint.
- We file the PSD2/APP-fraud complaint with your bank — a full dossier citing the official regulator warning plus KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the BaFin Schlichtungsstelle if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
ecomtrade24.com was added to BaFin's watchlist because it is not authorised to provide investment services in Germany. Unregulated brokers use offshore payment processors and shell companies to move victim funds fast — but PSD2 rules and BaFin Schlichtungsstelle give you real recovery routes.
Red flags to recognize
- Trading platform shows unrealistic profits that always go up (fake pricing engine)
- Impossible to withdraw even small test amounts — always some technical issue
- Aggressive sales tactics: told you the opportunity closes today
- Provided a "personal account manager" who chats daily to build trust
- Encouraged you to hide the investment from family or bank staff
Recovery timeline for this case type
Recovery from ecomtrade24.com follows a clear process. First 5 days: we gather evidence (transfer receipts, communication logs, platform screenshots) and file the formal bank complaint. Next 6-8 weeks: the bank investigates under PSD2 obligations set by KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4. If the bank refuses, we escalate to BaFin Schlichtungsstelle within 72 hours. Ombudsman decisions typically take 3-4 additional months. In parallel we coordinate criminal reporting.
Frequently asked questions
Is ecomtrade24.com the same as other scam brokers on your list?
Similar operational pattern, different corporate shells. Scam operators frequently rebrand — the same team behind ecomtrade24.com may operate other unregulated platforms under different names. We track cross-references between BaFin-flagged brokers to strengthen your case.
How long until my funds return after ecomtrade24.com case is won?
Once the bank accepts liability or BaFin Schlichtungsstelle rules in your favour, funds typically arrive in your account within 14-30 days. Some banks are faster. We monitor the account and chase daily until funds land.
Can I still recover from ecomtrade24.com if the loss was more than a year ago?
Yes, in many cases. PSD2 rules and consumer protection law under KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4 do not have a strict recovery deadline — the older the case, the more evidence work needed. We take cases from 3 months to 3 years old regularly.
