DCPTG Review: Quantitative trading “click a button” Ponzi
DCPTG (aka Digital Currency Pioneer Technology Group), fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
DCPTG operates from two known website domains:
- dcptg.com – registered in April 2023, private registration last updated on March 26th, 2024
- dcptg.xyz – registered on November 29th, 2022, private registration last updated on December 22nd, 2023
Some DCPTG marketing points to the domain “dcptg.vip”. At time of publication however this domain is disabled.
As of March 2024, SimilarWeb tracks top sources of traffic to DCPTG’s website as Germany (31%), Hungary (16%), Austria (11%), Russia (10%) and Switzerland (6%).
The majority of DCPTG’s website traffic originates from German-speaking countries. This is reflected in DCPTG securities fraud warnings already issued by Germany (March 5th) and Austria (April 6th).
The Central Bank of Russia also issued a DCPTG pyramid fraud warning on Januiary 4th, 2024.
Due to it falsely representing it is based out of the US, DCPTG has also attracted the attention of US regulators.
In December 2023 the Washington Department of Financial Institutions issued a DCPTG securities fraud warning:
DFI has reason to believe that ITP is connected with Coscoin, DCPTG, and Alevius, all of which are purported investment trading platforms registered with the Washington State Secretary of State.
It does not appear that Coscoin, DCPTG, and Alevius’s businesses are actually located at any of the locations they list on the Washington State Secretary of State’s filings, nor that they are engaged in lawful business activities.
ITP Corp, CosCoin and Alevius are collapsed “click a button” app Ponzis run by Chinese scammers.
If we inspect the support page of DCPTG’s website, we find it runs on Meiqia software:
Meiqia is a Chinese software company based out of Beijing. This suggests whoever is running DCPTG has ties to China.
In what appears to be an attempt to hide this, DCPTG’s marketing videos feature a combination of stock footage, staged events featuring actors and AI robo avatars.
As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.
DCPTG’s Products
DCPTG has no retailable products or services.
Affiliates are only able to market DCPTG affiliate membership itself.
DCPTG’s Compensation Plan
DCPTG affiliates invest tether on the promise of advertised daily returns:
- VIP1 – invest 100 USDT and receive 1.5% to 2% a day
- VIP2 – invest 300 USDT and receive 2% to 2.5% a day (must recruit three affiliate investors to unlock tier)
- VIP3 – invest 500 USDT and receive 2.5% to 2.7% a day (must recruit three VIP2 or higher tier investors to unlock tier)
- VIP4 – invest 3000 USDT and receive 2.7% to 2.9% a day (must recruit three VIP3 or higher tier investors to unlock tier)
- VIP5 – invest 5000 USDT and receive 2.9% to 3.2% a day (must recruit three VIP4 or higher tier investors to unlock tier)
- VIP6 – invest 10,000 USDT and receive 3.2% to 3.5% a day (must recruit three VIP5 or higher tier investors to unlock tier)
Note there are also “SVIP” investment plans which add a 0.2% to 0.5% bonus to the daily ROI rate. Investment tiers are otherwise the same between “VIP” and “SVIP” plans.
DCPTG pays referral commissions on USDT invested down three levels of recruitment (unilevel):
- level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 10%
- level 2 – 4%
- level 3 – 2%
Joining DCPTG
DCPTG affiliate membership is free.
Full participation in the attached income opportunity requires a minimum 100 USDT investment.
DCPTG Conclusion
DCPTG is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.
DCPTG’s “click a button” Ponzi ruse is quantitative trading:
The presented ruse is DCPTG affiliates log in and click a button (the more invested the more the button needs to be clicked):
Clicking the button purportedly generates revenue via quantitative trading, which for some reason DCPTG shares a percentage with its affiliate investors.
If that makes no sense it’s because it doesn’t. Randoms clicking a button in an app doesn’t trigger quantitative trading.
In reality clicking a button inside DCPTG does nothing. All DCPTG is doing is recycling newly invested funds to pay earlier investors.
DCPTG is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis that have emerged since late 2021.
Examples of already collapsed “click a button” app Ponzis using the same quantitative trading ruse include DQF, OBC AI and CDC.
Including DCPTG, BehindMLM has thus far documented over a hundred “click a button” app Ponzis. Most of them last a few weeks to a few months before collapsing.
“Click a button” app Ponzis disappear by disabling both their websites and app. This tends to happen without notice, leaving the majority of investors with a loss (inevitable Ponzi math).
The same group of Chinese scammers are believed to be behind the “click a button” app Ponzi plague.
Update 27th April 2024 – DCPTG has collapsed.
This has become huge in Germany. Every nurse and every taxi driver would pitch you. Germans are considered well educated people but tend to fall for nonsense like this.
Paul Leschik from Lörrach in Germany is heavily promoting the DCPTG scam, but not publicly. On his website wepec.de, he calls himself a broker for insurance and financial investments.
His YouTube channel only contains one video because he has not listed the DCPTG videos.

Paul Leschik has not listed the following videos.

Although the video is not listed, it has already had 3,041 views since December 28, 2023.

I will explain later how I managed to find the six unlisted videos.
There are 55 accounts for DCPTG on Instagram, most of them from Germany.
A founding document of DCPTG LLC was uploaded here on February 16, 2024, but I cannot judge whether it is genuine or a fake. The date given is 11/02/2023.

Here is the explanation of how I found the six unlisted DCPTG videos by Paul Leschik from Lörrach in Germany.
For months I have been monitoring the criminal activities of Heinz Peter from Dornbirn in Austria, who recommends numerous scam systems on YouTube and on his websites. On YouTube, for example, he links to JokerX, BlackFort, ROXXTTER Club and Boomerang.

But Heinz Peter is also actively promoting the DCPTG scam on this website:
dcptg.heinzpeter-marketing.de/anleitung
Point 4 of this guide is particularly bad!
What kind of idiot makes his personal data and photo available to unknown fraudsters? Is it not well known in Austria that this original data can be abused on the Internet?
The following screenshot shows only a part of the website:

Anyone who has been lured into a scam by Heinz Peter from Dornbirn in Austria should know his details. Here is a complete imprint:

Note. The email address is valid! In Austria, “support” is spelled with one “p”. 😀
tnx for your attention and helping people.
I understand this is very risky and all that, I am as well very skeptical of it. Now only one thing…
I invested 1500€ one month ago and withdrew 1550€.
My best friend invested 2000€ 3 months ago and withdrew 5000€.
My other best friend invested 5000€ almost a month ago and still hasn’t withdrawn.
Other people I personally know have taken out much more than us, but that’s just our results until now.
We have of all the 3 cases, profit, even and loss for now. The app has been working all good, I will not promote it or tell anyone to invest, obviously it is very high risk, but just wanted to share an experience that, yes, people have made profit out of it and I haven’t really heard of anyone that has had problems with withdrawing.
I agree that it is suspicious, but we put money that won’t break us if we do in fact lose them.
I can answer any questions on the email I left here.
Again. NOT PROMOTING this, just sharing an experience…
You and people you know are net-winners. In every MLM Ponzi scheme there is always a relative small group of investors who steal money.
Math is math and the people you and your friends stole from, the majority of DCPTG investors, will still lose money when DCPTG inevitably collapses.
There are over one hundred documented examples of “click a button” app Ponzis on BehindMLM. Stop making excuses for financial fraud.
right now there seems to be a “deal” to put money in and immediately get double out. Clear sign of last push to get most out of the scam.
I predict very very soon cash outs not working anymore with excuses of “too much traffic” or some shit, and it no longer working. And shortly thereafter the company doesn’t exist anymore.
Yeah and so it goes! They are sending now fake USDT tokens to all of us trying to make a withdraw.
What do you even do now? Call the police?
Monitors are all red since yesterday.
A lot people with big numbers on the screen getting angry now. Seems the promoters still getting paid their head money for new victims.

The six DCPTG videos not listed by the German fraudster Paul Leschik from Lörrach are now “private”.

The serial fraudster Heinz Peter from Dornbirn in Austria has removed his website dcptg.heinzpeter-marketing.de/anleitung.

Dear Friends,
It is pitty why this kind of Pages are coming so often?? Why police or somebody whom is payed from people to react in time unless comes to late.
One milion people are layed and now body reacted ???? !!!
Very bad different layers are manipulating people???
Police is sleeping and different antifraud organisations.
To be fair, German police are supposed to track down Chinese scammers in Asia? They can’t even deal with German scammers.
Fraud warnings have been issued well before DCPTG collapsed. Sorry for your loss.
Part of me says “wake up people, stop relying on police and financial regulators to look out for your stupid mistakes and greed”. Get educated or stop complaining.
Then again part of me says “scammers are scum of the earth and should be put in jail, no mercy”
Put greedy people in front of scammers and the result is sadly inevitable
