What happened
MalwareTips published an investigation today into Million Securities, which presents mssstock.com as a stock trading platform with wealth management and investment banking services, and whose press releases (distributed by GlobePRwire) say it holds an investment adviser licence from the SEC and pools small investors' money. MalwareTips reports that the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure page lists Million Securities Ltd (CRD 338838) only as an Exempt Reporting Adviser with the status 'Not Currently Registered', that FINRA BrokerCheck shows no broker-dealer registration, and that the Colorado company was formed in December 2019 while the site shows a '40+ Years In Business' tile. It found mssstock.com was registered on September 19, 2025, that a September 2025 release used the domain coinln.com, and that the JavaScript behind the archived site contains the text of a 'Crown Exchange' platform with invitation-only signup, a 'mentor' plan and a 30% withdrawal fee. MalwareTips could not test the live site, app or withdrawals, which now block its tools, and advises not to deposit money or send cryptocurrency or 'test amounts' to accounts linked to Million Securities, mssstock.com or coinln.com.
How the scam works
Unlicensed investment and 'AI trading' sites usually start with a polished sign-up form, a promised high or guaranteed return, and pressure to deposit quickly, often after a call or a message on Telegram. Early small withdrawals may be paid so that you send more. Clone firms copy the name, and sometimes the address or phone number, of a real authorised business. Check the firm on your national regulator's register, and type the official website yourself rather than following a link. A regulator warning or a block order is not a finding that a particular customer lost money; it is a notice that the site is not authorised to offer those services.
