At the beginning of 2026, the “3.15” Gala received many clues from consumers: a stock investment business called “Stock Recommendations for Ticketing, 50/50 Profit Sharing” has attracted a lot of investor attention.

Industry insiders from legitimate investment institutions warn that many of these so-called “stock recommendation profit sharing” advisory services online are scams carried out by criminals impersonating legitimate financial investment firms. If the recommended stocks profit, the scammers take a cut; if the stocks fall, they disappear, with the excuse of “covering losses” to lure consumers into traps.

The reporter contacted several organizations offering “stock recommendation profit sharing” services online. One, claiming to be TianShun Investment, caught the reporter’s attention. Following the customer service representative’s advice, the reporter bought 2,000 shares of a certain stock at 18.82 yuan. However, over the next half month, the stock kept falling, and the reporter had to sell at an 8% loss. When questioning the customer service via video call, the scene flashed by, and the reporter noticed the words “XinBenKe Information Consulting Co., Ltd.” on the wall behind the representative. The reporter found that this company is located in Zunyi, has no financial licensing, and recruits telemarketers externally. Subsequently, the reporter went to Zunyi and successfully applied for a telemarketing position at the company.

The company’s business manager, Mr. He, explained the specifics of the work: following a prepared script, making calls daily to find and screen investors interested in buying designated stocks with funds. “Sister, don’t worry, we prioritize risk control first, making money second. Our stocks are researched jointly with multiple institutions, not just any random stock.” His words were firm, but Mr. He didn’t seem to care about clients’ losses. When asked what happens if clients lose money, he simply replied, “It’s just part of the game.”

Where do the so-called institutional research reports recommended daily by XinBenKe come from? One customer service representative revealed the truth: these reports are just a cover to deceive clients. The stocks recommended are actually chosen by the company’s boss. XinBenKe relies on stocks arbitrarily selected by the boss, using clients’ own funds to trade, enticing clients to buy, and operating on a profit-sharing model. Among these randomly chosen stocks, some will rise and profit, so the company shares the gains; when losses occur, they simply disappear, forming a so-called “stock recommendation business” that guarantees no losses.
