I asked a prop firm CEO if I could buy a withdrawal payout certificate from him, and he agreed. Mind you, I’ve never even made a withdrawal. I just wanted something to show off, to flex and sell my mentorships, and to convince traders to buy into my program. He gave me a $20,000 withdrawal payout certificate, and I’ve never even traded on their account. I paid him $500 for it.

That’s how easy it is to get scammed in this industry without even realizing it. It benefits the prop firm, and it benefits me—but it doesn’t benefit you. Both of us are taking advantage of you.

This is happening every day in this space. Watch out for the industry plants and DL marketing scams.
