Immediate Edge Review and SCAM Investigation
Crypto is back baby, and scammers are not wasting any time! Such is the case with the Immediate Edge SCAM (AKA Immediate Edge Bot) by the fictitious Edwin James. The Immediate Edge app and automated cryptocurrency trading platform (crypto robot) is advertised as a cryptocurrency investment system which generates money for you on auto pilot. However, as our detailed Immediate Edge review will prove, after you signup a Forex or CFD broker is assigned to you, in our case it was an unlicensed broker named Infinitrade which has a registered business address in Sofia Bulgaria. And this broker is scamming customers (that’s YOU) in what is commonly referred to as a revenue share scheme. A revenue or profit share scheme is when affiliate marketers or media agencies strike a deal where they split the profits based on customer referrals. But when it comes to Immediate Edge their profit is your loss, hence the conflict of interest.
Now, when we started receiving complaints we noticed something strange. We signed up ourselves and started receiving phone calls from this broker (Infinitrade), and they were trying to convince us to join another software. Well, we thought this was highly unusual as we are usually told the software we signup for is a credible system with proven results. However, this is clearly not the case when it comes to the fraudulent Immediate Edge app. Why does this happen? Well, we started connecting the dots and immediately realized that the broker was trying to cheat the affiliate marketers out of their commissions by having them signup again with a different email account. So, as Axl Rose would say “welcome to the jungle” and enter at your own risk because you are about to get ripped off by thieving con artists who view you as their personal cash cow and will do their utmost to steal your money.
Immediate Edge Complaints: We have received about a dozen complaints about the Immediate Edge app and they are all mentioning difficulties in cashing out and the fact that Immediate Edge is a losing software. This is not a big surprise as we are very well acquainted with these types of get-rich-quick schemes and how they operate. We also got wind of another broker which is actually deeply involved in this scam and they are blacklisted by the FCA as well as ConSob in Italy for illegally providing Investment Services without proper certification. So if for some reason you feel tempted to join the losing Immediate Edge App scam, we recommend you read our detailed Immediate Edge review before you take that leap of faith and risk your hard-earned money.
Official Website, Login Page, and Members Area: Spoofed website that keeps changing constantly
Ongoing Updates:
Immediate Edge is also Being Marketed these days as “Immediate Advantage”.
This platform is also being used with a different design these days. We have added a separate section which explains why this is happening.
Proof of SCAM
OK, so below we can see the first version of the Immediate Edge SCAM sales page and registration area. A closer look will reveal that it is marketed as the “world’s most intelligent crypto software” which generates $950-$2,200 daily. That’s quite a bold claim from a totally sub-standard piece of trash trading technology. But that’s just the start of it.
Immediate Edge 2021 – Multiple Versions Spotted (Updated Constantly)
And right here you can see a screenshot of the latest version of this trending scam. One template has been recycled many times, and these days it is being used primarily for German speakers. We are unsure as to why scammers keep using this recycled template, but we have mentioned previously in many of our reviews that the con artists need to plug into a type of turnkey solution which allows them to switch logos, add a bit of content or graphics, and then launch quickly. We also spotted 8 additional sites which also claim to be the official “Immediate Edge Website” and they are all confirmed scams. Below we have attached images of these websites, and as you can see they are all named Immediate Edge, but their design and logos are different. One of the sites even has an “about us” section where they try to sell you the idea that a “pair of amateur traders” invented the software and are now helping ordinary people become millionaires.
Recycled SCAM Evidence – Continued
And here are side-by-side screenshots we have added for you as a point of reference for comparative purposes. This is to prove that the new Immediate Edge format is a scam just like the previous one, it’s just packaged differently.
To continue, here is the testimonial section of the original Immediate Edge scam website. Its plain to see that “Delilah Adams” is not a real person and her image was stolen from the internet for promotional purposes. We are 100% convinced that The other two characters are also fake and all the promotional content is copied and forged.
And here is the last piece of evidence (you will not need anymore). We have marked in red 2 sections. The first says Zero Risk, and the other one says 98.9% success rate. Take these two pieces of information, put them together, and what you have is a bona fide scam and confirmed get-rich-quick scheme.
What is Immediate Edge, Who IS Edwin James, and How Does The Immediate Edge App Work?
Immediate Edge is advertised as an artificial Intelligence trading app which uses state of the art algorithms to identify only profitable trends (that’s the so-called edge). Edwin James is presented to us as the owner and creator of this software. The app is supposed to scan the market for price differences. It’s worth pointing out that Immediate Edge was originally a software designed for trading Binary Options, and it was adapted to cryptocurrencies at a later stage. This happened because Binary Options fizzled out due to revised regulatory guidelines which basically made it illegal to trade binary options in most jurisdictions. This also helps explain why there are multiple versions of this scam.
Immediate Edge Review, Is Immediate Edge App SCAM Or Real Deal At $950 Daily?
Edwin James is the man of the hour since he discovered a way to gain an immediate edge on the market. Immediate Edge follows a deeply ingrained rule of how cryptocurrencies are traded. It’s trading algorithms allow it to buy low from one exchange and sell high to another. The profits are in the margins and that is how you are supposed to generate the income.
There is also talk about a secret and how they know the insiders, so in other words they claim to have access to inside information. In reality this could not be farther from the truth and once you signup you will get ripped off by thieving brokers.
Immediate Edge Is NOT Working With ANY Of The Major Crypto Currency Exchanges
We checked with Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, BlockFi, Poloniex, and Bittrex. They never heard about the Immediate Edge app or Edwin James, but they did warn us that there are many systems these days making all kinds of claims about integrating with their platforms. In most cases these are swindlers illegally using the names of legitimate exchanges for promotional reasons. Some fake review websites are trying to sell you an idea about a transactional trading platform which mitigates risk. But this has nothing to do with any of the so-called “features” associated with Immediate Edge, and these sites are deliberately trying to mislead you so you would invest through their website. Don’t believe it for a second!
Immediate Edge Deposits and Withdrawals
Depositing through the Immediate Edge software is easy enough. You simply enter your credit card details and verify the transaction through the 3 digits in the back of your card. The problem is cashing out, and we have received countless complaints about this super-sensitive issue. In most cases the brokers will try to use various stall tactics by having you resend documents, or alternatively use a variety of excuses saying the risk manager is indisposed. In other cases they will simply choose not to reply to your emails and you will eventually get locked out of your trading account. This is a very common practice with unlicensed offshore CFD brokers, so expect the worst.
Immediate Edge Customer Support (Non-Existent)
We tried to message the Immediate Edge customer service center by clicking on the “contact” link at the bottom of the site. Since there are over 8 clones of the Immediate Edge website now, we had to try and contact each and every one. Needless to say we could not find a single website which actually responded to our questions. In most cases the email simply bounced back and that reaffirmed our initial conclusions; namely that it is a scam.
Immediate Edge Made the FCA Blacklist
Immediate Edge has been officially blacklisted by the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom and effective immediately labeled as a scam (better late than never). For those of you who are not aware, the FCA is the official licensing body for all financial firms, instruments, or services which are provided for residents of the United Kingdom. We believe that this will cause a domino effect now and other legal entities such as ASIC or BaFin will follow this trend and update this section of our review when relevant. Scammers are always trying to evade the negative exposure, so they simply switched domains but kept the actual name of Immediate Edge Bot since it suited their needs.
So it seems we were not mistaken and now the FSMA in Belgium as well as CONSOB in Italy are now officially warning investors and advising them that Immediate Edge is an investment scam which uses “fake ads”. We have added screenshots above for you as a point of reference.
Fake Immediate Edge Reviews – There Are Many!
We have spotted multiple fake Immediate Edge Reviews. Originally when we published our article we could not find any, but now there are more than 8 confirmed fake reviews which are endorsing the Immediate Edge app in order to receive affiliate commissions. We honestly want to know how the owners of these websites feel now that the cat is officially “out of the bag” after the recent FCA scam alert and everyone can see just how biased their reviews are. So if you believe something isn’t quite right just stop and take a minute to think things over. If you need additional information simply reach out and let us know immediately.
Other Viral Scams Trending

Immediate Edge Fake News (Updated Daily)
It seems that despite the Facebook blanket ban on all CFDs (contracts for difference) advertising some scammers managed to slip between the cracks. The image below illustrates how advertisers in Poland were able to launch this fake news campaign and started baiting new victims using fake celebrity endorsements. Other fake news articles related to Immediate Edge include Gordon Ramsay, members of the Shark Tank, Dragons’ Den, Elon Musk, Stromae, Jim Pattison, Christoph Waltz, Yvonne Catterfeld, Gert Verhulst, Ben Yeo, Richard Branson, Per Gessle, Celeste Barber, Jan Guillou, Paul McCartney, Robert Gustafsson, Harry and Meghan, Singapore Billionaire Peter Lim, Celeste Barber, Dick Smith, and other famous actors and politicians are also illegally used for promotional purposes.
Still Trust Immediate Edge App?
It happens, we all get tempted and for some reason connect to something without any logic. If this is the case and after reading our Immediate Edge review you still want to invest then you need to treat this little adventure as a type of gamble and as every gambler knows the house always wins.
Quick Update: Immediate Edge has been cloned and is also being marketed these days as “Profit Edge” as well as Immediate Bitcoin and “Immediate Trader”.

Both Facebook and Twitter keep posting sponsored posts that link to Immediate Edge, Bitcoin Revolution and Bitcoin Profit scams. The ones appearing in my feed include what I believe to be fraudulent references to Australian media and other personalities. Today, May 15, at approximately 21:15 Australian Eastern Time, I found the latest of these which makes direct reference to what is almost a fraudulent claim to being featured on the Australian television show, Sunrise, which features a financial consultant David Koch. There is not a hope in hell that Koch would ever have anything to do with such scams. A few days ago they claimed to have shown their wonderful products on the Australian television show, Studio 10, making direct reference to the show’s lead host, Sarah Harris. I tweeted Ms Harris alerting her to it and she swiftly responded with the statement “Utter crap! Abort! Abort!” But try and lodge a complaint with either Facebook or Twitter about it! Yet both Facebook and Twitter presumably continue to pocket money from posting these ‘sponsored’ posts. Apparently making money is more important to Facebook and Twitter than eliminating fraud and scams.
Hi Ross. These are exactly the kinds of comments we are looking for. Thanks for sharing.
Dziękuje bardzo za Twoją opinię – Thank you very much for your opinion.
I am considering compiling a dossier of their posts and passing it to the Feds.
Whoops – just realised I said ‘today’ is May 15. It is of course May 17.
100% scam indeed.
Another big scam is Scyllacoin Digital Payment.
Avoid it or you will lose all your money!
Hi Denance, you are correct. Immediate Edge is a horrible scam so make sure to avoid it.
There’s a big SPAM wave now, advertising for this scam in Germany and other german speaking countries. They claim, the inventors of this system were two german IT guys who appeared at the german version of shark-tank/dragon’s-den. A fake site, resembling the “Bild”, the largest german tabloid paper tells the potential investors about the TV appearance and how the airing of this presentation was allegedly forbidden by the german government, All is fake, All is lies.
Hi Daniel. Thanks for sharing
Hello, I saw a fake news article with Per Gessle after looking for a way to make some money with Bitcoin. Inside there were some links and as you have said in your review they lead to Immediate Edge which was in Swedish. I lost 600 Euros and they keep calling me, someone name Karl Kennerman who sounding very convincing until I saw your review about Immediate Edge and that it is a scam. It’s a shame I did not read it before so it too late for me now right?
Hi Theo, thank you for sharing this is important information for our members to read about Immediate Edge. Stephan
Hello from lovely Gothenburg Sweden. I also have been cheated out of €1,000 after seeing a fake news article with Per Gessle who said he had a system for making money with Bitcoin. It’s a shame I didn’t check this review about Immediate Edge first as now I know it is a scam. They keep calling me and I refuse to invest more until I see some kind of return but I lost everything so yes you are right these people are liars and I feel very humiliated and frustrated now.
Hi Hugo, The sad thing is that there are many fake Immediate Edge reviews and they are not being truthful about this fake software. I’m sorry you lost your money. Stephan
Hello, I received an email which invited me to join a trading group on Telegram. They started training us but after about 30 minutes they told us to signup for Immediate Edge in order to speed things up. Thankfully I have researched this and ended up on your website, so thank you for this information.
Hi Dieter, thanks for sharing. S
