As of Monday evening, 25 November 2024, Tiger Agriculture’s main website (tigeragriculture.com) is no longer accessible, marking another major step in the scam’s rapid disintegration.
This follows the earlier removal of its app from the Google Play Store, leaving participants with dwindling access points to the platform.
Website Goes Dark
Participants attempting to access tigeragriculture.com are now greeted with an error message stating that the site cannot be reached.
Another prominent access point for the scam, site.tigeragriculture.com—a subdomain of tigeragriculture.com—has also gone dark, as its functionality depended on the now-defunct main domain.
While tigeragriculture.world, the domain used primarily for invite codes shared on social media and other platforms, remains online for now, its days are likely numbered. Similarly, tigeragriculture.group, a lesser-used website, is still accessible, further sustaining the illusion of activity. Reports suggest intermittent functionality on both sites, indicating that their shutdowns are imminent.
The WhatsApp groups associated with Tiger Agriculture, including those with admin-only comments, have also been disbanded.
Most participants were kicked out days ago, leaving them with no recourse for information or communication. Prior to their removal, users reported that the final messages encouraged further deposits, perpetuating the scam until the bitter end.
Signs of a Coordinated Exit
The collapse of tigeragriculture.com and the removal of the app are part of a calculated exit strategy typical of scams like Tiger Agriculture.
By systematically cutting off access points and disbanding communication channels, the scammers aim to obscure their tracks and avoid accountability.
This coordinated exit leaves participants in limbo, unable to access their accounts, view their frozen balances, or attempt withdrawals.
For those who recently made “recharges” in the hope of unlocking funds, the realisation that they have been scammed twice is now unavoidable.
A House of Cards Collapses
Tiger Agriculture’s collapse follows a well-worn pattern:
- Withdrawal Problems Begin: Starting on 20 November 2024, participants reported issues with withdrawing funds, triggering panic.
- App Removal: The scam’s app was pulled from the Google Play Store, cutting off a major access point.
- Failed Recharges: Desperate participants made deposits to upgrade membership levels, only to find no changes in their accounts.
- Website Shutdowns: The primary website, tigeragriculture.com, is now offline, taking with it key subdomains like site.tigeragriculture.com.
- Communication Channels Disbanded: WhatsApp groups were disbanded, severing participants’ last lines of communication.
With its digital infrastructure crumbling, Tiger Agriculture is poised to disappear entirely, leaving no way for participants to recover their funds or seek accountability.
What’s Next?
As the collapse unfolds, tigeragriculture.world, the preferred domain for invite codes shared across social media, is expected to follow tigeragriculture.com into oblivion. This will effectively erase all remaining traces of the scam’s infrastructure. Similarly, tigeragriculture.group, though lesser-used, is likely to disappear in the coming days.
However, the aftermath of Tiger Agriculture’s collapse presents new dangers. Influencers and promoters of other scams have already taken to platforms like Facebook and TikTok, attempting to lure disillusioned Tiger Agriculture participants into their schemes.
Using clichés such as, “We told you Tiger Agriculture was a scam, but you can trust [this investment] instead,” they promote unregistered schemes that are likely to meet the same fate as Tiger Agriculture.
Some of these newly promoted scams include:
- Barrick Investment/Barrickchs (barrickchs.com), a mining scam we’ve debunked here: Barrickchs: Posing as Barrick Gold to Dupe Investors
- Koonox, a pyramid scheme already fizzling out, which we exposed here: Unpacking the Koonox Scam
Participants in Tiger Agriculture, now desperate to recover their losses, are prime targets for these schemes. Scammers exploit their vulnerability and hope, perpetuating the cycle of deception.
The collapse of Tiger Agriculture is a stark reminder of the dangers posed by unregistered investment schemes.
While the scam’s digital footprint fades, the lessons remain clear: vigilance and awareness are critical, as quick returns often come at a devastating cost.
