How OnlineRefundee recovers your money from GLQ-Investors
- 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 GLQ-Investors. 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 TUF Art. 166 + D.Lgs. 231/2007. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the Arbitro Bancario Finanziario (ABF) if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Guardia di Finanza / Polizia Postale — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
Behind GLQ-Investors is the classic investment-scam playbook: a website that looks like a legitimate broker, an "account manager" who WhatsApps you daily, and a dashboard showing fake profits. When you try to withdraw, they demand a "release tax" — that fee is the scam.
Red flags to recognize
- Uses "regulated by" claims from offshore jurisdictions (Vanuatu, St Vincent, Marshall Islands)
- 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
Recovery timeline for this case type
The typical Italy-based case follows this timeline: Week 1-2, we file the initial PSD2/APP-fraud complaint with your bank citing the CONSOB warning. Weeks 3-8, the bank has 8 weeks under TUF Art. 166 + D.Lgs. 231/2007 to investigate and respond. If refused (60% of first responses), Weeks 10-16, we escalate to Arbitro Bancario Finanziario (ABF) — our team overturns 62% of refusals at this stage. Weeks 16-24, funds returned or case moves to criminal referral. Most successful recoveries close in 8-16 weeks.
