Hi, I got scammed by the same arsehole. I think his 'name' [alias] was actually Lansford Gordon and he transformed into Andrew Burrows, at least his voice sounded identical. Since around September/October CPT's website has disappeared and they have 'gone' to The Ukraine via Switzerland - all phoney, of course. There seems no chance of getting any money back even if any of the bastards get caught. The common advice seems to be inform the fraud police and your bank. They will do nothing other than to acknowledge your complaint and shirk any responsibility. Some victims, including myself have formed a group on Facebook but you will need to go though the group administrator (see 'anonymous' post on page 6 of this forum) . Whilst I have been preparing this reply to you (mjt) I noticed a scammer whose 'name' I didn't check and whose post timed at 19.59 has now, it seems, has been removed by binaryoptions.net admin as a suspected scammer. In addition to the facebook group (which numbers several dozen) there is also a WhatsApp group of which I am not a member yet which is also working on this case
Myself and many others are part of a group of people who were scammed by Strategy Markets/CPT. If you would like to join our efforts, then please start by joining our facebook group. Go on to facebook and search for 'scammed by strategy markets' to find us.
Also, be aware that secondary tier scams have targeted many of the victims. Do not be fooled into handing any more money over to anybody who claims that they can help you with this.
Has anyone received a case update from Action Fraud. I received an update stating that they would not be progressing with this case due to no positive links.. I questioned this but they stated that all lines of investigation have been blank due to bank acccounts being closed and stating that it appears that the crimes were committed outwith the UK which is outwith their jurisdiction. Even the supposed photograph of Miles Peterson was not successful. I am not a member of the WhatsApp group so I am not aware if the group has made any progress. My wife did try joining the group but the details given on this forum were not successful. Feeling Pain.

To join the WhatsApp group you need to submit an action fraud number and proof of at least one payment to strategy markets
