Great Golden Brilliant: A Deep Dive into a New Scam Using Old Tricks

New schemes with old tricks. If you stay vigilant,ghc foreign exchange platform you won't be easily deceived. Today, TraderKnows is exposing a company that relies on very traditional financial schemes. We have revealed many of these types of scams before. Despite their innocent appearance and appeal, they continue to trap countless people. Here, we will analyze in detail our subject today: Wei Hui Technology Holdings, and see how they are putting a new spin on an old trick.

Unbelievably High Monthly Returns: Are They Really Reliable?

On the Wei Hui Technology Holdings website and in their promotional PDF, they boast up to an 18% monthly return rate. Even their lowest annual return rate touted is 49%. To give you context, TraderKnows tells a story using their lowest claim of a 4% monthly gain in their PDF/PPT.

Imagine a scenario where you earn 8,000 RMB a month, working from 9 to 6. One day, you come across Wei Hui Technology Holdings’ promotions and invest 3,000 RMB, forgetting about it and continuing with your work.

• First Year: After working hard for a year, you discover that the 3,000 RMB you invested in Wei Hui Technology has grown to 4,803 RMB. You think, “Great, I've made enough to buy an electric scooter for commuting,” and you continue to leave your money there.
• Fourth Year: After years of hard work, perhaps your salary has increased to 9,000 or 10,000 RMB. The money in Wei Hui Technology has reached 17,567 RMB, contributing 700 RMB a month. You might scoff, noting that it doesn't even cover your monthly food expenses, and continue with your life.
• Tenth Year: A decade later, you have long forgotten that arbitrary investment from ten years ago. One day, after work, you suddenly remember and check your Wei Hui account. You are shocked to see 290,000 RMB in your account, giving you over 11,000 RMB a month. Looking now at your salary and your account, in just ten years, a mere 3,000 RMB investment has resulted in monthly returns surpassing your income. You regret not investing more at the time.
• Fifteenth Year: You have long since stopped working, as your account balance has reached 970,000 RMB. You comfortably receive 38,000 RMB each month, now embarking on world travels, never having imagined this lifestyle, all due to that initial 3,000 RMB.

Let's calculate: a 4% monthly return, compounded, exceeds 60% annually. Warren Buffett's legendary status comes from Berkshire Hathaway achieving an average annual return of about 20% over nearly 60 years, but in comparison, Wei Hui Technology Holdings' so-called AI trading system pales in significance. If top-tier AIs like ChatGPT could achieve these returns, their creators would have retired long ago.

Community Expansion Plan or Pyramid Scheme?

The reason these are called financial schemes is their need for a constant influx of funds. The unrealistic returns come from the principal supplied by users themselves. Without new investments, the scheme would collapse quickly. Wei Hui Technology emphasizes a so-called community expansion plan, which essentially pressures investors to recruit family and friends.

As mentioned above, there is no AI system. Were there one, AI companies would long ago monetize it. Likewise, the touted PAMM model is nothing more than bait. The true revenue source stems from new member deposits. The MT5 mentioned is merely a trap. In communications, Wei Hui Technology's promotional materials reveal that users have no control over trades, as settlements are automatically calculated and distributed.

This means users' role is merely to supply funds according to their PDF/PPT descriptions. Actual trading purportedly occurs through their "AI technical team" and "GGB trading team" via an AI trading system. Whether any real trading happens, nobody knows.

Two Companies, Two Roles

Wei Hui Technology Holdings set up two companies playing distinct roles in the scam: one creates hype and uses confusing financial jargon, while the other handles investor funds to ensure deposits keep coming in.

Great Golden Brilliant (GGB): A Scam's Mirage

Notice that this entity is different from Great Bright International Holdings Limited (GBIH). Their websites differ: Great Golden Brilliant (GGB) uses ggb.ltd while GBIH uses gbih.com.hk. This distinction illustrates the scam's clever wordplay.

Great Golden Brilliant (GGB) fronts the promotional image, which is why some investors may recognize their promotional materials and logo. Meanwhile, GBIH handles the financial transactions.

The benefit lies in GGB taking the fall if necessary while GBIH remains unscathed and could continue operations. Note that each company has a distinct registered address. GBIH is registered in Hong Kong while GGB is registered in Saint Lucia (a registration completed on June 20, 2025). This location difference proves they are separate entities.

Registering in Saint Lucia is simple. For those inclined, one can register a company online through a local agent without leaving the house, assuming financial resources are available. As for GGB's financial regulation—it’s nonexistent. We searched the local regulatory agency in Saint Lucia, the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA), and found no trace of GGB.

Checking the website's registration date, according to whois data, GGB registered its site ggb.ltd only this April. An enterprise less than three months old (when this article was finalized) claims 25K satisfied customers—ridiculous.

In summary, GGB presents a polished face to investors, glorifying itself, yet behind the façade lies a hollow shell.

Does GBIH Really Have Regulation? Can the Gold and Silver Exchange Society Protect Investors?

Should investors reach the deposit stage, GBIH comes into play. We can indeed verify the company’s registration in the Hong Kong Companies Registry. However, registration means merely that it's based in Hong Kong. Investors aren't gullible enough to trust a company merely because its registration information is available.

So, how can one prove depositing with GBIH is safe? GBIH applied to become a member of the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange Society as Member No. 95, portraying itself as a legitimate trading platform. But can this organization truly protect investors?

The Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange Society is a private association, not a governmental regulatory body, and thus has no authority over GBIH. Furthermore, the supervisors listed in this organization's records are all members of the exchange, performing dual roles as players and referees. Additionally, its handbook claims that a mere three-hour annual refresh course suffices to renew membership.

Therefore, membership in such a self-regulatory body provides no investor protection, as scammers will exit once they've made enough money.

Conduct Offline Gatherings: Essential for Financial Schemes

On the websites built by Wei Hui Technology Holdings, you'll find it exceedingly hard to contact them. GGB’s site lacks any contact information besides a subscription button. Similarly, GBIH’s website hides its contact form, which begins with "Submit your feedback," seemingly disinterested in being contacted.

According to semrush data, both websites receive minimal traffic, confirming their customer acquisition is not web-driven but through social media and direct communication, targeting users in Chinese-speaking regions (e.g., via platforms like WeChat).

Once achieving a certain scale online, Wei Hui Technology held its first offline meeting in Nanning, Guangxi, under the guise of a “Music and Gourmet Tasting,” which was essentially a gathering to indoctrinate undecided users into their ideology for financial gain.

At this point, all hallmarks of a financial scheme are present: unbelievable returns, recruitment pushes, and offline gatherings—the latter being crucial, as many objectives cannot be achieved without them.

• Creating tangible interactions fosters a sense of community: Unlike online connections, face-to-face interaction transmits emotion, establishing trust more effectively. Seeing their "branch" and "nice" leaders, and enjoying prepared food and gifts, is far more convincing than cold text.
• Demonstrating strength: Through onsite presentations, using grandiose terminology like AI trading systems, PAMM accounts, and mentioning membership at the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange Society, it reinforces the illusion of strength to attendees. However, reality is quite different.

Conclusion

This scheme has just begun. Based on prior registration information, Wei Hui Technology Holdings’ website was only created this April, and so far has had one known event in Nanning, Guangxi. More events are sure to follow. We urge investors to remain vigilant as such high returns are unrealistic. May there be a world free of scams.
