EXAMPLE OF EVIDENCE.

XXXXXXXX 14/12/2020

Dear Ira, Simon,

This is just a partial Hard Proof, one of many that we are collating against Etoro.

The more we research the more legal avoidance we uncover. Etoro may be a simple platform for “average joe” but nobody should be LIED TO, lied about vital facts, mislead, confused, and provided false information to sign up/register or in fact continue on the platform.

Re complaint/claim 5. MISREPRESENTATION, poor quality and lack of information, false advertising, untrue reviews (2, 3, 4, 5)

ETORO MISREPRESENTATION – LEGAL LIES to create illusion of safety and attract more users, making Etoro Services look regulated, where they are NOT!

It`s shocking that even in August 2020 Etoro kept misleading and misinforming users, stating false claims that they are FULLY REGULATED, on the main page of CRYPTO trading, just under heading “easier way to buy crypto” with “create account” button just under, so since fully regulated appears on web page dedicated to buying crypto currency it suggests that it`s a fully regulated service (and asset and whole process is fully regulated) and users don’t scroll to bottom of the page to read the tiny footprint, which actually says exactly the opposite, that crypto assets are unregulated.

There should have been at least an Asterix * or sign or caveat next to the Fully Regulated text, that it does not mean crypto, so in fact, crypto assets and buying/trading service are not regulated so should not be advertised as such.

It`s a tactical lie, misleading advertisement, misinformation, obscuring/hiding facts, luring customers into “creating account” based on false feeling of security.

It`s the hardest proof of continuous and ongoing MISREPRESENTATION by Etoro until November 2020 when they finally changed it, because I dared to accuse them of misrepresentation in July/August.

Bottom of the same page says exactly the opposite, that crypto assets are unregulated. But that information is not first but somewhere in the middle of the boring legal text. As this fact is most important it should be at the front of text, bolded and referenced to top of the page which is after all dedicated to crypto trading so all relevant warning, legal text should explain crypto first. This wasn`t the case and isn`t a case even today.

The web archives by “gobacktimemachine” http://web.archive.org show that this misrepresentation was happening until November 2020 when Etoro finally changed it, after I pointed out many problems and suggested I will accuse Etoro of misrepresentation (back in in July/August 2020).

There is more evidence being compiled, but this MAJOR HARD PROOF shows how Etoro Lied in our face ignoring legal consequences. The “just compensation for Etoro victims”  awareness campaign, which we are promoting, will ensure Etoro will have to explain this to CySEC, FCA, FinCEN, ASIC or even ESMA.

Note, this PROOF is uploaded to Public Website (for Etoro, then for Ombudsman and in the meantime and forever for the Whole World) which is continuously updated while we are building a case.
