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.
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!
What I say? This shit like a scammer multiverse. Scammers, scam companies, fuck even the mf that posted this got his own dirty laundry.
Birds of a feather scam the fuck together.
Smh so what’s up with these pump and dumps? @MoonTrades7
Didn’t know you was STILL doing that 🥱
do you understand now ? why all these scammers work together and group up to sell you guys straight bull crap?
@clintoptions @SkylitAI @OptionsFunding_ @zeustradez

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.

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.

The account name change function changes the icon next to he account when it has been modified. We can confirm that the account name in the image posted was modified from the original account name.
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.

U looked at the video the wrong way
He plays a character online and it’s made him millions and while chasing that character he lost the only thing he loved. IMO that video should be shown on national television as we all can relate
I’ve said it time and time again. This man is one of the most disrespectful mfs towards women. It ain’t even close dawg.
It’s not a surprise whatsoever that she left.
Look at what he values. Anyone feeling bad for him needs to cut the bullshit.
If he acts the way he does online just imagine how he is IRL
