Hong Kong SFC warns ICE Global Professional Station of suspected virtual asset fraud.

On August 21, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) of Hong Kong issued a warning to the public to beware of a suspicious digital asset trading platform named ICE Global Professional Station, which is suspected of virtual asset-related fraud. The platform provides a mobile application through a specific link (hxxps://icapes[.]com/app), allegedly impersonating the well-known multinational financial services institution Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (ICE) by using a similar name and logo.

The SFC disclosed that some investors have reported difficulties withdrawing funds after investing in cryptocurrency products on this platform. To protect the interests of investors, the SFC has swiftly taken action by including the mobile application link of ICE Global Professional Station in the list of suspicious virtual asset trading platforms.
