Coinemi turns up in “arbitrage bundle” chats: open the unknown exchange, run the “bundle”, watch a green balance, then hit a wall labelled KYC, AML, tax or source-of-funds. Marketing may say “founded in Europe in 2022”; the small print has pointed at a Panama company name instead. A compliance page that never shows a licence number — and in reported captures still mentions another brand such as Bitget in leftover template text — is not a regulator stamp.
Clone DNA shows up elsewhere: similar Europe-2022 origin myths and the same hollow “licence” prose on other disposable exchange skins. Social icons that dump you on generic LinkedIn or Discord download pages, “apps” that are only browser shortcuts, and market tables with no live book while the homepage claims huge daily volume complete the picture.
Do not fund a test deposit to “check the route”. If you already did, refuse unlock fees. Preserve chat logs, deposit addresses and transaction IDs. Note the name collision risk with the long-running Coinomi wallet — different product, different domain.
If this already cost you money, start at Get help. For paid “recovery” after a first loss, read Fake recovery.
