Pyramid scheme with fake pages, fake identities, illegal circulation of cryptocurrencies and manipulation of victims on Telegram; evidence that requires urgent criminal investigation by the Economic Crimes Unit

While Albanian institutions sleep, a criminal network based in Tirana is developing one of the most brutal financial fraud schemes in Eastern Europe. XUEX, TXEX and other phantom platforms are siphoning off millions of euros through pyramid-style scams, using cryptocurrencies as a facade and Albanians as direct victims.
This is no ordinary virtual scam. This is a well-structured organization with an operational cell in Tirana, which exploits every plight, every illusion, and every human weakness to rob citizens.
At the center of this scheme are newly launched websites like xuexn.com, txex2.com and a-egig.vip, which hide their ownership through Cloudflare and operate without any financial license from any official institution. Platforms with zero transparency, with designs copied from previous scams like LWEX and PCEX, which have now been shut down, defrauding Albanians and Europeans of millions of euros.

Fake identities like "Anthony Leo Smith" and "Ellie" appear on the public stage, individuals who do not legally exist anywhere, with fake profiles that sell themselves as "financial experts" with degrees from Princeton, when in fact every communication is done in Albanian, with ridiculous translations by AI.
The pamphlet has dozens of visual evidence from the main groups on Telegram; “EG-82-Dorina Group”, “EG-19 Team”, “EG-Group Management”, where specific Albanian individuals, with names like Dritan Cekrez and numerous fake accounts, recruit victims with promises of guaranteed profits, luxurious living, and even free cars. The manipulation scheme is perfect: they force the victims to take pictures with food and cell phones, cheat them with symbolic payments of “reimbursed lunches” and plunge them into a collective psychosis thanks to the famous “professor Leo” system.



An aggressive propaganda campaign against any critical information has been built in Telegram groups. Any media outlet that dares to talk about this fraud is labeled “Fake News.” Any attempt to withdraw funds is delayed or denied. Any victim who tries to understand the truth is publicly humiliated as a “coward” or “enemy of success.”

The financial structure of this scheme is a classic money laundering model. Funds are collected via TRC20 USDT, to addresses personalized for each victim, circulated through intermediary wallets, and ended up with Albanian OTC traders who do not report anything to the Albanian banking system. The winnings are fake, the platforms block withdrawals when the victim tries to leave, and any refunds are fictitious to lure in the next victims.
Meanwhile, the list of victims is expanding every day. Groups are publishing listings with emails, phone numbers and investment amounts of up to $20,000 per person, while administrators publicly boast that "the goal is to add new members."

Why does Economic Crime allow a criminal organization to operate openly from Tirana, extort Albanian citizens, and operate an international cryptocurrency money laundering network?
The pamphlet has documented every piece of evidence: communications, money flows, fake identities, video manipulation, public deception and false advertising. This is evidence that does not require complicated analysis, but only legal will to destroy this network and dismantle the digital crime that is embarrassing Albania in the eyes of Europe.
Albania cannot turn into a financial crime laundromat. This fraud will not be covered up with "free dinners" and "profit slogans" in front of Albanians who are being robbed in front of the world.
