According to the investor warning issued by the Canadian Alberta Securities Commission (ASC), CanCap, a cryptographic investment project promoted by social media and the Internet recently, may involve fraud. The scam impersonated support from the Alberta government and used fake CBC news articles, including images of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, claiming to support an investment plan involving digital currencies. After investigation, CanCap is associated with multiple suspicious websites, including ecosmartfunds. com (heepstekk.com)、primeinvests.eu、(muxcap.io)、webtrader.springhill.(top And these platforms and related companies are not registered in Canada and do not have the authority to provide investment trading or advice. ASC emphasizes that CanCap is not related to the legitimate financial company CanCap Group. ASC warns that cryptocurrency fraud often uses well-known company names, false celebrity endorsements, fabricated news reports, and current economic events to create credibility, while promising high returns and low risks to attract investors. ASC recommends that the public visit CheckFirst.ca to verify the registration information of investment companies and be alert to similar fraudulent activities.
