While we do not have confirmed evidence, Mateo Vasconez - Mehdi's partner - has been frequently seen with Mehdi, and concerns have been raised about his proximity to the scams.

In good faith, we want to warn and make people aware of both individuals.

At this time, we are not asserting any proven wrongdoing by Mateo Vasconez. We are sharing this information solely as a warning, in the interest of helping others quickly identify both individuals and avoid potential fraud.

In December 2024, myself and a close friend were introduced to Mehdi Arbi, who claimed to be a crypto expert and offered to help us invest. 

Our Experience With Mehdi Arbi And A Warning To Others...

Potential Involvement Of Others


Based on his confident claims and our personal trust in him, we transferred a substantial amount of money with the agreement that he would invest it on our behalf and return profits each month.

As of today, our repeated attempts to recover the funds with him have either been ignored or deflected. 

We are sharing this experience to warn others and in the hope of preventing more individuals from being scammed by Mehdi Arbi.  

TheCryptoCoach.io - Raises Concern

Mateo Vasconez

Evan Paris

While we did not personally interact with Evan Paris regarding the investments, his name has come up repeatedly in public warnings shared above by other individuals who claim to have been defrauded.

Several people have alleged that he is closely associated with Mehdi Arbi and may have played a role in related activities.

We are sharing this information to reflect what others have publicly reported and to encourage further awareness.

If you have had direct experience with Evan Paris in this context, we invite you to share it using the contact form below.

During our earlier interactions, I assisted Mehdi Arbi in brainstorming the concept for a crypto membership website - TheCryptoCoach.io - where he intended to share trading tips and encourage others to invest with him directly

At the time, he expressed unusual excitement, not just for the educational side, but about the idea of building a site that could give him direct access to other people's money.

Based on our personal experience, and in light of multiple public reports of unpaid debts, missing funds, and ongoing scams, we are deeply concerned that this new website may be used to further exploit unsuspecting individuals under the guise of crypto expertise. 

If you encounter a trading or investment platform associated with Mehdi Arbi, we urge you to proceed with extreme caution, do independent research, and avoid sending any funds without verified third-party oversight.
