Pacific Peak Capital Partners ltd (clone scam)

To all of above posts.
This is 100% a scam. They aren’t interested in a few hundred to gain your trust.
I saw a very similar around 12 months ago and many lost tens of thousands some 6 figures because they got sucked in to thinking be millionaires in no time more invest. Then once the big money was in 23% tax had to get paid to withdraw but here’s the next part of the scam . The tax couldn’t be paid out of the assets . It had to be sent as a deposit to release
the funds ie another 20% scammed when folk are led to believe only way to get money back. Then they disappeared.
My exchange is a different one as are the ind, assistant etc but everything else, the initial stocks, the first beta , the 2nd one etc exactly the same.
Now they’re looking for big deposits to supposedly get big bonuses. Be aware it won’t matter how much you profit or what your asset value shows when it’s all fabricated. Yes it’s very very sophisticated but they aren’t interested!!!
Note they’re so sophisticated they have a presence in all the review forums and also have their own which will come up in a google search. Ask ChatGPT is a good route.
I checked the forum and I’m terrified! I’m withdrawing my 120k usdc!
I joined this WhatsApp group two months ago, and I’ve made some really decent profits from the stocks they’ve been sharing. At first, I was quite impressed with how professional they seemed, probably because I was actually making money on the stocks.
Under Halyna’s guidance, I got familiar with crypto trading on NDAEnext. I also took part in the PFIT trial, and the trades there really boosted my confidence. So I thought this was a proper opportunity, and after thinking it through several times, I ended up depositing £350k.
I was making profits not just from the daily trading signals shared in the group, but also from tips I was getting from other investors in there. Eventually my account reached £500k.
Recently, some stranger suddenly added me on WhatsApp. I’ve no idea where they got my details from. I was suspicious of them at first, until they told me about this website. Honestly, when I saw the comments here, I was absolutely gobsmacked! I didn’t sleep properly for several nights.
After thinking it over and over, I plucked up the courage to confront Halyna and demanded to withdraw all my funds. After I’d let all my emotions out, I immediately regretted it because I was terrified that what I’d done would stop me getting my money back.
I felt like those were the most difficult few days I’ve ever been through, until I actually managed to get my funds back. Even now it feels like a dream. I’ve no idea why they actually let me have my money back. But the reviews here have left me feeling quite frightened.
I successfully withdrew $120k today. Are these remarks genuinely from individuals who are simply resentful, suspicious, or emotionally Jews driven ?
Is it that they care little for factual accuracy, and would rather seek comfort in dismissing others than confronting reality?
====== Message Part 1 =========
The PFIT and PPCP is a big scam. Watch out.
Here is how I verified it.
I contacted the two companies FCAT and PGIM, that the 2 professors claim are copartners in developing the so called PinnacleFlow system.
1) FCAT:
The company doesn’t have emails of their employees on their websites. However, they have full names and pictures and I can see that they are reachable through linkedin. I used the company’s contact form on the website (see link below) and wrote the following:
Dear Mr./Mrs.
I hope this message finds you well.
I am reaching out to verify a claim made by a company called Pacific Peak Capital Partners (PPCP). They are claiming they are in partnership with your organization to develop an AI trading platform named PinnacleFlow and are marketing your organization as a partner behind the development of this system.
Could you please confirm whether your company is indeed affiliated or in partnership with PPCP in this regard?
Thank you for your time and assistance. I appreciate your clarification.
Kind Regards,
XXXX
I got the below answer:
Hi XXXX –
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. FCAT is not involved with this company/project.
Best,
Jane
====== Message Part 2 =========
The PFIT and PPCP is a big scam. Watch out.

2) PGIM
This company has emails of their employees on their website. So very easy. I started out writing to their client.inquiries@pgim.com and didn’t get a response. Then I wrote to a “Travis Fishstein” and no response. Then I wrote again to “Travis Fishstein” again and a “Kaur Sharan”. After one day I got a reply from a “Paul Pak” who signed as a “Security officer”. Below is this reply. I sent the same mail as above.
Dear XXXX:
Thank you for your inquiry to Mr. Fishstein and Mrs. Sharan on xx October 2025 and xx November 2025. The company called Pacific Peak Capital Partners (PPCP) is a fictitious and malicious organization and we have notified law enforcement as well as requested the take downs of these websites. PGIM Quantitative Solutions has no affiliation nor relationship with PPCP as being errantly advertised by this fictitious organization.
Please do not communicate with this malicious organizations.
Thank you,
Paul Pak
Cybersecurity Officer

My advice to you is:
Stay away and don’t transfer any funds to them. Don’t do the KYC. If you have transferred funds then follow some of the advices mentioned earlier, describing how to successfully take the funds out without catching their attention.
Stay safe and take care.
Reach out to SolidBlock Forensics if you want to get back your coins from fake crypto investment or your wallet was compromised and all your coins gone. SolidBlock Forensics provide deep ethical analysis and investigation that enables them to trace these schemes, and recover all your funds. Their services are professional and reliable.
This person is a scammer. Don’t click on any unknown links, there’s a very real chance they could drain your crypto wallet. They post these things to trick you into withdrawing your funds, then they play on people’s need to verify things for themselves. If you click on their links, your phone or computer will get infected with malware. They’ll then be able to transfer your funds to their own wallet whenever they like.
It’s also easy to post in here that the funds are easily withdrawn by an insider!!!
I just sent the link you gave me to a mate who works at Fidelity, and he said they don’t have any links like that. He told me not to click it, or any other links from email replies, just to be safe.
Ha ha ha, SoSo, are you trying to divert attention away from the real scammers above?
Why are you posting in broken English?
Are you in on it with them?
I am involved in 2 groups – and I’m the only real personal identity on each group. All others are bots …
A big timer put a trade out on group which liquidates the participant if he lets it. But is all a set up
Then a bot says they got liquidated but are gonna put more funds in and says it was their own fault – just to persuade you to do same.
All images are ai and 99% are wearing glasses.
Apparently it is a Bulgarian group that have made millions over the years and can’t be touched by authorities
Also I was able to withdraw money no problem – left about 1000 or so dollars and then got liquidated. Not putting any of my own money in as am sure it was a complete set up with crypto tickets that don’t exist and some off the ones that do exist are a different price
I had deposited about 10,000 dollars at one point. Was able to take it all out no problem.
I’m not committing but will be sick as a parrot if it’s the real thing
Been reading a few comments … and no one will know for sure until d- day but I won’t be investing. It hasn’t cost me anything – in fact I think I made $1000
Never an y problem removing funds
But they know if u put in 10,000 then u have another 100,000 lying about some where ???
From what I know is – they target your phone from the pinnacle flow hub – where u win prizes / get passwords etc
They have your kyc as registered on the trading app – so would be able to secure loans etc in ur name anyway
The stings come in a hidden ? Form – if you don’t follow trade exactly 100% then you will lose a lot as at 50 leverage and makes out its your fault
If you follow the bots trade you will lose eventually and again as if it’s nothing to do with them
So system is not honest ( if it was my company I was trying to promote – I wouldn’t be allowing some so called trader or big timer to give trade advise on my company group chat ( would do more damage )
But at same time / info is very knowledgeable – not always 100% but accurate
So I wouldn’t be surprised if this was real deal. ….. but I’m out and not investing …. And that’s my final answer
Ps. The reason a member was removed within an hr was because he gave info about group leaders – and there is only 1 authentic member on each group – so easily identified –
Try phoning any member on ur group
