DeFi Technologies Inc. exists — job offers in its name often do not

A listed fintech’s filings on an aggregator are real. A chat that hires you to deposit your own money is not.

DeFi Technologies Inc. is a publicly traded digital-asset infrastructure company (tickers such as DEFI / DEFT on major venues, with filings investors can pull from ordinary disclosure channels). Aggregators that republish European company reports may show its documents. That paper trail is useful for equity research. It is not a recruitment portal.

Scam desks love the name anyway. They send a “job” with a licence screenshot and a link to a real filings page so you relax, then ask you to fund a trading account, follow signals or “amplify” a deposit — classic task-scam / fake-employer contours wearing a listed brand. Real public companies hire through verifiable careers pages and payroll, not by asking applicants to wire USDT to practise.

Verify employers on domains and exchanges you type yourself. If the role requires your capital before a salary, it is not employment. Walk away, keep the messages, and use Get help if you already paid.

If money already moved, start at Get help. For anyone selling paid “recovery” afterward, see Fake recovery.
