EVERYTHING IS FREE.
Or at least that’s what they keep telling you.
New investigation loading.
I put way too much into this trailer for y’all to watch it once and keep scrolling 😂
Watch closely. There are clues everywhere.
The Syndicate knows. 😈
🎬 Trailer below.
What is this I see big dawg? @dontbsalti say it ain’t so 😩😬
FAHHHH 😭
MARKET MOMMY .@dontbsalti — LET'S TALK ABOUT THOSE PRIVATE MESSAGES. ☕️🍿
For someone who spends so much time calling out alleged scammers, attacking prop firms, and questioning everyone else's integrity in the trading community, these are some pretty interesting conversations to be having behind the scenes.
A few weeks ago, a woman reached out to me about her experience working with Salti.
They originally connected over Salti's criticism of Vest Markets. They started talking about crypto, perpetual futures, and eventually building a website together.
According to this woman, she spent weeks sharing trading knowledge, ideas, and information while Salti worked on developing the website.
But here's something else she told me that I find disturbing.
She claims that because Salti disliked Vest Markets, Salti encouraged her to blow her Vest trading account.
Think about that for a second.
A trader allegedly being encouraged to destroy her own trading account because someone else has a personal issue with the firm.
The woman also told me she was uncomfortable with some of Salti's proposed strategies, but she trusted her judgment and allowed Salti to take the lead.
She now believes that trust was misplaced.
And this is exactly why I keep saying that traders need to think for themselves rather than blindly follow personalities on social media.
BUT THE VEST ACCOUNT ISN'T EVEN THE MOST CONCERNING PART.
The private marketing conversations are.
One of the screenshots discusses:
"1 fake agency 2 scam accounts 3 prop compare site for crypto"
Read that again.
A FAKE AGENCY.
ACCOUNTS DESCRIBED AS SCAM ACCOUNTS.
AND A CRYPTO PROP FIRM COMPARISON WEBSITE.
These aren't words I'm making up. They're in the messages.
Another conversation discusses approaching TikTok accounts through a fake agency and earning commissions on sales.
And in another exchange about someone buying a product after seeing it promoted, the response includes:
"not my fault"
Seriously?
This is the same trading community where people are constantly being warned about misleading promotions, questionable affiliates, and scams.
And these are the kinds of marketing ideas being discussed privately?
BUT WAIT. THERE'S MORE.
The woman also alleges that she and Salti attempted to purchase established social media accounts with large follower counts, at approximately $800 per account.
According to her, they paid but never received the accounts.
I haven't seen the payment confirmations, so that part remains her allegation.
But the messages discussing fake agencies and accounts are right there for everyone to read.
And that brings me to my biggest issue with all of this.
THE HYPOCRISY.
How are you going to spend your days publicly tearing down people in this industry, accusing others of scamming traders, and questioning everyone's ethics while having conversations like these behind closed doors?
What exactly was the plan?
Why discuss a fake agency?
Why discuss accounts described as scam accounts?
And what was the intended purpose of those accounts in promoting a trading-related business?
Because the community deserves answers to those questions.
I have absolutely no problem with exposing actual scams. I've always believed traders deserve transparency.
But I have a BIG problem with people using accusations of fraud as a weapon against everyone they dislike while expecting their own conduct to go unquestioned.
And let's not forget the woman who says she spent weeks helping develop this project.
She says she contributed ideas, knowledge, and time, only to find herself questioning whether she was still involved while the website was being promoted.
The messages show her repeatedly trying to get clarity about their working relationship.
And here's where things stand as of November 6th.
According to this woman, Salti still hasn't had another conversation with her to resolve what happened.
Weeks of working together, sharing ideas, and building a website, and now she's left wondering what happened to the partnership.
Meanwhile, the project had already been promoted publicly.
Imagine investing your time into helping someone build something, only to be left chasing answers about whether you're even involved anymore.
I'm not going to rewrite the entire conversation to suit anyone's narrative.
THE SCREENSHOTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
You can read what was discussed, what each person said, and how things unfolded. You built yourself as this ethical person (despite the fact we know you are a liar) but you did it to gain a following... you never cared about the trading community.
And Salti, since you're so comfortable putting everyone else's business under a microscope, I assume you won't mind the trading community taking a closer look at yours.
Because the same standards you demand from everyone else should apply to you.
I'm beyond tired of the constant accusations, personal attacks, and people treating this industry like their own personal battlefield.
There are enough genuine problems in trading without adding questionable marketing practices to the mix.
YOU DON'T GET TO DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY FROM THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY AND THEN EXPECT NONE FOR YOURSELF.
I'll leave the conversations here.
Read them. Judge them for yourselves.
And remember, discussing a plan doesn't prove it was carried out. But why would she allegedly pay so much money for fake accounts if she wasn't going to carry it out? Absolutely gives people a reason to ask what the plan was. I am sure you all already know... there are many screenshots I will not post but this here is all you need to see. Which prop firm's is she partnered with?! Is this the type of a person and type of marketing strategy they want to work with?
I have plenty of other screenshots but we will see if I release them...
🍿
Turn them comments on and take this public shaming like a man 🤡🥱
Typed out this long as message just for no one to be able to reply to it.
Trust been gone.
Three years ago, Prop Firm Match launched. Two traders saw a gap in the market for a platform providing simplicity and transparency for prop firm traders. We developed new features not seen before: verified reviews, payout tracking across all payment methods, live spreads, rule overviews, simple ways to compare prop firms, and prop firm expos.
Three years in, PFM has had over 25M website visits, reached over 370,000 members, and has given out free challenge accounts worth over $1,400,000 to the PFM community. Over 100 firms apply to be listed each year and go through one of the industry’s most rigorous compliance processes.
We also got something wrong. Until yesterday, when someone clicked on a firm or a code on our site, a new tab would open the firm’s site through our affiliate link. This should not have happened. We take full responsibility for it. We have reached out to each of our partners to review this together and reconcile any inaccuracies. We respect any decisions firms have made based on this.
We truly appreciate the partners and traders who value the relationship we have built together over the years. We promise you that we will learn from this, hold ourselves to the highest standard, and come back stronger and better.
Nigga what???????
I’m highly disappointed in you Topstep. Working with known scammers is nasty work big dawg.
Nah fuck that.. PAYING known scammers is worse 😭😭😭😭
fyi - we are dropping Prop firm Match.. we didn't have a code and we paid them $10k a month to list us (best rank we got was 6th place.. i heard 1st cost $100k/m) ... now we save $10k a month... time to have a @TopstepTV Fire Drill (thats where we give away stuff on tv) .. we got an extra $10,000 a month in our budget!! Let go!

this will be my last post on the matter. read it. it's important.
lanto opened this up.
he renamed his vest accounts so his screenshots showed accounts 41 to 50 when he was on account 819. he told someone he spent "$21k" when it was around $300k. then he admitted on video, "i completely understand how this could have been misleading."
the P&L was real. the cost behind it was hidden, and those posts were selling code SMART and his discord. 3 firms cut ties with him within hours.
and it's the same playbook across the group.
the live logins i've seen only ever show the 1D view. big green days get posted, the red days and the account spend don't.
then it's affiliate codes, and now dhesitrades.com, where you leave your name, number and email and "a team member will reach out to you" about an application-only program.
one guy doing this is one thing. this is a group with 230k+ followers across X, youtube and instagram between them, tied to the same affiliate company. smart prop firm says it has 20k+ active traders, and vest says lanto's commissions ran through a code shared with brian and dhesi.
every road points beginners the same way: a discord, code SMART, a sales funnel. that's not one bad post, it's a business model.
this is exactly what the FTC and state attorneys general go after. section 5 of the FTC Act bans deceptive marketing, and an ad can be deceptive even if you never meant it to be. posting payouts while leaving out what it cost to get them can count. so can pushing a code without saying you get paid on it.
every state has its own version of that law, and AGs enforce it:
- in august idaho's AG settled with justin werlein of tactical traders. his ads said he went from delivering pizzas to $700k+ in trading profits, then he admitted he never made a profit. he's barred from running a similar business and has to refund customers.
- the FTC and nevada's AG sued IM Mastery Academy in 2025 over trading earnings claims aimed at young people.
- warrior trading paid $3M after the FTC said its "results not typical" disclaimers didn't fix its earnings claims.
beginners are the ones buying the evals, paying for the discord and filling out the form. that's who these laws protect.
Do live logins on my options acc very often on IG lol

So to clear up any confusion here,
Nobody is saying that planto didn’t get paid.
But you really have some audacity to edit the account name to show number to 43
And then slip up and show that you’re on account actually on acct number 819
delete it all you want everyone already saw it.
Bruh paid for somebody’s payout with all the accounts his ass bought 😂

So in other words, what we saw was indeed correct. @lanto_trades ran through 800+ accounts and wanted us to believe it was only 40 lmao and posted it and deleted it.
Deceiving his own community when all he has to do is be honest and transparent.
You right @jmutrades that’s exactly like Danny just fucking shameless 😭
At this point, nobody even cares that he’s running through so many. It’s the simple fact that’s he going out of his way to lie and deceive others about it.
Thank you for the clarification. No further questions required.
Yall need to address this big dawg @VestExchange unless yall allow this on purpose? 🤔
Why else would you have such a feature that can be abused so blatantly?
Yall a lil too quiet while this is going on. I’m starting to believe that you are aware.
Update: @lanto_trades has his dannystrades moment.
He's not on account #42. He's on account #819.
Quick posted and deleted by Lanto.
This is fraud. Shame on Lanto and all those who enable him.
I would like to see @VestExchange take a hard look at these edited Account Number videos/screenshots. Boot influencers who are deceiving the customerbase. Other firms would do that.

🚨PSA: Don’t fall for this furu bullshit.
Huge profits. Huge payouts. Problem is the spend behind them is often obfuscated. Influencers are changing the account names that show how many accounts they've burned through. Typically they just hide the number. This time they are actively changing the account name.
On Vest, every account is numbered, so your 5th account shows up as “Account 5” with a 5 in the icon next to it. There’s also an edit button that lets a trader change the account name, and once it’s edited, the icon shows an “A” instead of the real number, even if the new name still reads like a regular account number.
Most people scrolling past an influencer’s screenshot would never notice that “A.” And if every account already comes named with its number, why would anyone edit the name just to make it look like another account number? Is that the actual account number? Doubtful.
Below is a screenshot from @lanto_trades with edited account names. Not unexpected.
