One More Deposit: Inside a Levrix Managed-Account Boiler Room

Levrix assigned a “senior strategist” who placed trades on the Brisbane owner’s behalf and pushed for “one more deposit” before every big payout. The payouts never came; the deposits — five cards and a crypto top-up — were the entire business model.

IntakeHow the subject made contact

A finance-forum lead led to a call offering a “managed account” with a dedicated strategist. The strategist placed binary-options trades the owner could watch but not control.

Levrix sits on the GEInvestigator ledger as a boiler-room operation. The hallmark was simple: every cash-out request was met with a reason to deposit again first.

Point of compromiseWhere control was lost

Each “withdrawal” required another deposit to “cover spread” or “release profits.” The deposits ran across five different cards and a USDT-Tron top-up to an operator wallet.

The spread of card processors and the three-week gap before he sought help would shape what was recoverable.

“Every time I tried to cash out, there was one more deposit between me and the money. There always was.”Claimant statement · Case GEI-2026-0423

Evidence chainHow the recovery was built

EX-01

Catalogued the deposit instruments

Mapped all five card processors and the USDT-Tron top-up into a single timeline.

EX-02

Built the multi-card chargeback file

Documented the managed-account fiction for disputes on each qualifying card.

EX-03

Traced the USDT-Tron leg

Followed the crypto top-up to the operator wallet and its onward exchange deposit.

EX-04

Filed on the cash-out exchange

Submitted the on-chain trace before the consolidated balance moved.

EX-05

Settled the recoverable mix

DispositionWhat came back

52%
Funds returned to claimant

AU$38,700 of AU$74,500 was returned — chargebacks on the qualifying card legs plus a partial crypto freeze. Several older card deposits fell outside the dispute window, which honestly set the ceiling here.
