Pelican Capital Investment has been flagged on the SARFund registry as a reported clone-of-a-real-exchange front. Victim submissions describe a familiar pattern: an initial small deposit that “performs”, followed by escalating top-ups and a final wall when withdrawal is requested.

Across the verified submissions, three red flags repeat: the broker used unregulated celebrity endorsements, required upfront deposits routed through obscure custodial wallets, and promised guaranteed returns. None of these are unique to Pelican Capital Investment — they are the structural fingerprint of this scam typology.

Public chatter on direct victim submissions through SARFund, Quora question threads and TrustPilot complaints shows the same recurring complaint structure: deposits go in, dashboard “earnings” appear, withdrawal requests trigger fee demands, and contact eventually goes silent.

What victims should do

If you deposited funds with this platform, file a claim with SARFund as soon as possible. Provide transaction hashes, wallet addresses, deposit dates, and any communication with the operator (Telegram, WhatsApp, email). The fresher the evidence, the higher the chance of a successful trace.

Why the recovery partner is masked

Listing the partner publicly creates two problems: it tips off perpetrators, who then accelerate fund-laundering, and it invites recovery-scam impersonators to clone the partner brand. Both happen often enough that masking is the only defensible default.
