Parties

Pretoria, South Africa.
2. Defendant AXECC.IO (AXE Crypto Currency or AXECC) purports to be a crypto
currency trading or investment platform with no fixed abode or office except for its Top-
Level Domain .io website: axecc.io.
3. The domain registration for axecc.io is masked and leads to a privacy service Whois
Privacy Corp. in Nassau, The Bahamas.
Background to the Claim

4. This is a claim for deceit for £123,923 fraudulently obtained from Claimant by the
Defendant known as AXECC.IO(AXE Crypto Currency or AXECC).

5. AXECC presents itself as a Legitimate trading platform or venue for crypto currency
transactions.

6. The AXECC.IO website states that its purpose is: "Trade on the moving values ofthe
Cryptocurrencies for higher geared returns on Axecc Trading Platform."

7. AXECC.IO however is not a licensed trading platform in the British Indian Ocean
Territory or any other jurisdiction.

8. AXECC claims it has devised a unique trading strategy that can produce an extremely
high return in less than two months.

9. The Claimant asserts that AXECC does not trade crypto currency but simply induces
investors to divest themselves of money and/or crypto currency and then posts false
invoices showing impressive profits in order to obtain more deposits from victims.

10. The Claimant asserts AXECC is a criminal organisation with no purpose other than
criminal activity and receiving payments from its victims in crypto currency and through
credit card and bank wire to third party remittance services or criminal confederates.

False Representations

11. In November 2017 Andrew Kirov, aself-described "senior broker" purportedly based
in Oslo, Norway referred Claimant to AXE Crypto Currency "AXECC" doing business
as AXECC.IO. While Kirov pretended to be unaffiliated with AXECC, the Claimant
asserts that Kirov's job was to steer victims to AXECC.

12. AXECC through its brokers andlor touts Tomas Miller, Sofia Rojas and Tanya Brown
induced Claimant to deposit £123,923 in a series of transactions from November 2017
through June 2018, the majority of which were obtained through the simple expedient of
providing a running false accounting showing trading profits. Claimant's payments were
made to AXECC in a series of approximately 20 transactions including various other
payments such as"taxes" and "fees." The payments were in mixed transactions ofPound
sterling, Euros, and US dollars as well as crypto currency including the following
payments and dates:

E 5000 16/11/2017

E 7250 04/12/2017

E20,768 10/06/2018(Advance Fee)

Other payments were in crypto currencies on various other dates between November 2017
and June 2018.

13. Claimant was encouraged to continue to fund the AXECC account as his "profits"
grew with the AXECC account balance peaking at E284,607 by May 2017. See Exhibit
"1" attached.

14. On April 10, 2018, AXECC produced a false assessment from Her Majesty's
Revenue &Customs(`HMRC') in the sum ofE8722 with which they induced Claimant
to pay to them. HIVIRC later confirmed the tax bill assessment was a complete forgery
but Claimant was indeed deceived by it and paid the funds to AXECC who corruptly
personated ~-IlVIRC. See Exhibit"2" attached.

15. On May 21, 2018, AXECC provided a false accounting to Claimant demanding a
E6000 service fee before Claimant's funds could be released, which the Claimant paid
this fee as well. And on On June 11 and June 13, 2018, AXECC demanded that Claimant
pay service fees totaling 3000 and 1000 E, which he did.

16. AXECC however did not release the promised X284,607 but instead Claimant was
contacted in June 2018 by two of claimant's agents, the Andrew Kirov and Rainer
Swartzmann who intentionally and falsely promised to gain more funds from Claimant
that in exchange for an additional payment of E20,767.85, the said E284,607 would be
released to Claimant. Pursuant to an agreement with Kirov and Swartzmann, Claimant
paid E20,767.85, but no funds were released Claimant. The entire charade being what is
termed an "advance fee scam." See Exhibit"3" attached.

17. As a result of AXECC's many intentional misrepresentations which were relied upon
by Claimant his losses totaled at least £123,923.
