The Belgian Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) disclosed that in the second half of 2025, Belgian consumers lost over €23 million due to cryptocurrency scams and WhatsApp investment schemes. Among these, fake crypto trading platforms caused losses exceeding €10.5 million, while stock scams involving 'exclusive investment advice' shared via social media and WhatsApp groups resulted in losses of over €9.5 million. FSMA warned that unauthorized trading platforms remain a major source of risk and urged the public to stay vigilant against investment invitations on social media and private chat channels.
