Avoid Swisscap - an elaborate scamming operation

My impression of this organisation is that it operates an elaborate scam, misrepresenting its operation as that of an established Market trader and broker.

When I made an initial internet enquiry about investing in bitcoins I was bombarded by calls after I had initially been contacted by an individual with an hispanic accent who appeared to be from California. He came across as competent, and knowledgable and appeared to be working for Swiss Cap. I was persuaded to invest a total of £450.00, which according to their website started to increase in value, reaching about US$ 1,400.00. I was constantly pestered to invest more to guarantee even better returns. I resisted this and was then passed on to two others, who appeared to be male and then female, both with hispanic accents but without Spanish-sounding names. I still resisted requests, using different tactics, to put in more money, and they gave me the impression I was therefore wasting their time.

I then asked the woman, who went under the name of Mary Gray, for the return of my money. She said my investment had now grown to £3,000.00 and said before I could get this back I had to pay and government tax or commission (it wasn't clear which) of 23% upfront. This made me think that she was trying to obtain more money from what is essentially an advance fee fraud. She also told me she did not want to waste more of her time by sending me details of any of her requirements in writing!

I refused to pay any more and she said if I did not not want them to trade for me they would close my account. She made it clear I could therefore not recover my investment if I didn't pay this 'fee' (presumably based on the supposed $3k I now had) upfront. She implied my reaction was one of ignorance as I was not an experienced investor! She finally then told me she would provide an email address (which she did at the swisspro server) in case I reconsidered).

I don't expect I'm going to hear from them again. The company has gone to some trouble to set up a very professional looking website. I wonder how many others have been misled/entrapped by this elaborate scam.
