In the r/CryptoScams community, user KaspyXZ asked about the legitimacy of the cryptocurrency platform assettbroker.com, which is actively advertised through live streams. The post's author noticed several red flags: on the website, users are directly offered a $15 bonus in exchange for writing a review on Trustpilot, which artificially explains the high ratings. Furthermore, complaints can already be found online stating that withdrawing earned money from the platform is either impossible or extremely difficult.

In the comments, users unanimously confirmed the author's suspicions. They also emphasized that platforms promoted through streams and social media almost always turn out to be scams, and advised using only verified and well-known exchanges. According to user Guess_Xz, difficulties with withdrawing funds or demands to pay taxes in order to get your own money back are a sure sign of fraud. User PiSquared6 also categorically stated that the platform is a 100% scam.
