Press release of 6 November 2025 (black out websites) - CONSOB AND ITS ACTIVITIES
PRESS RELEASE
New intervention by Consob to black-out “clone sites” spreading counterfeit videos, apparently referring to Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti.
The blocking (resolutions no. 23738 and no. 23739 of 5 November 2025) referred to the website https://avenixio-invest.com (in addition to the websites https://avenixio.com, https://avenixio.org, https://avenixio.it, https://avenixio.vip), which ‘cloned’ the image of Prime Minister Meloni, and the website https://tegsub.com, which replicated that of Minister Giorgetti to promote the ‘Avenixio’ online trading platforms.
In particular, by means of a modus operandi already disclosed in recent months (with the relevant measures adopted in May and October 2025), the ‘clone’ of the Minister publicized investment services provided through abusive trading platforms through fake interviews apparently given to leading television programs.
Consob's intervention - to protect investors and institutional figures who were unduly involved, despite being completely unrelated to the matter - was carried out by exercising the powers deriving from the “Growth Decree” (converted by Law No. 58 of 28 June, 2019) and the “Capital Law” (No. 21 of 5 March, 2024).
At the same time, Consob also blacked-out 8 other websites for illegal financial intermediation activities.
Below are the websites that Consob has ordered to be blacked-out:
- “D2XMarkets” (website https://d2xmarkets.com and related pages https://clientzone.d2xmarkets.com and https://wt.d2xmarkets.com);
- “Easy MarketsEU Limited” (website https://easymarketscfd.org and related pages https://panel.mxd23.com, https://trading.mxd23.com);
- VT Markets Limited (website www.vtmarkets-it.net and related page https://myaccount.vtmarkets-it.net);
- FPM Trading (website https://fpmtrading.com and related page https://portal.fpmtrading.com);
- “ITALGO.AI” (website https://italgo.ai and related page https://app.italgo.ai);
- “Comgestfx” (website https://comgestfx.com.com and related page https://my.plat4mxm.com);
- “Progestrade” (website https://progestrade.com and related page https://client.progestrade.com);
- “Renaitech AI” (website https://premiumrenaitech-ai.vip and related page https://app.premiumrenaitech-ai.vip).
The number of websites blacked-out since July 2019, when Consob got the power to order that the websites of fraudulent financial intermediaries be blacked out, has thus risen to 1478.
The measures adopted by Consob can be consulted on the website www.consob.it.
The black-out of these websites by Internet service providers operating on Italian territory is ongoing. For technical reasons, it can take several days for the blackout to come into effect.
Consob draws investors' attention to the importance of adopting the greatest diligence in order to make informed investment choices, adopting common sense behaviours, essential to safeguard their savings: these include, for websites that offer financial services, checking in advance that the operator with whom they are investing is authorized, and, for offers of financial products and crypto assets, whether the prospectus or white paper has been published.
To this end, Consob would remind you that on the website www.consob.it there is a section on the homepage, "Watch for Scams!", providing useful information to warn investors against financially unauthorized initiatives.
