What was reported
A California resident told the DFPI about SDI Partners, which also went by the name Seider Digital Intelligence. The person said they were first contacted on WhatsApp and told that the platform's AI-driven trading technology could earn a steady monthly return. They reported opening an account and depositing money on the platform, and said they have not been able to get any of it back.
Sound familiar?
- Your account shows profits, but you can’t take money out.
- You’re asked for a fee, a tax or a “commission” before any withdrawal.
- The site goes offline, and the same people often come back under a new name.
What to do now
- Don’t pay any more fees to withdraw. Paying doesn’t unlock the money. It usually leads to the next fee.
- Save everything. Screenshots, chats, the website address, wallet addresses and transaction IDs.
- Report it. To the FBI at ic3.gov, and to the DFPI if you live in California.
- Watch for “recovery” offers. If someone contacts you offering to get the money back for an upfront fee, it’s almost always the same scam again.

Be extra careful with anyone offering “crypto recovery.” Many of these companies are scams themselves. Some legitimate crypto tracing firms exist, but if you pay for help, we recommend a licensed law firm that focuses on fraud, including crypto.
