You’re scrolling through Telegram late at night when you stumble upon “Mr Perfect Trader”, a channel boasting 11,550 members, flashy profit screenshots, and promises of daily returns from “jackpot trades.”
The description clearly states: “No tips, No advice,” but everything you see screams the opposite.
The irony?
That very disclaimer is what makes this dangerous.
Millions of Indians fall for this trap every day, believing they’ve found a legitimate trading mentor, only to lose their hard-earned money to unauthorized advisors operating in the shadows.
The Mr Perfect Trader Telegram channel is one such operation, and this blog will show you exactly why it’s a red flag you can’t ignore.
Who is Mr Perfect Trader?
Mr Perfect Trader operates through multiple platforms, with his main presence on Telegram’s “MR PERFECT TRADER (LEARNING)” channel, which currently has over 11,550 subscribers.
He’s also active on Instagram under the handle @mr_perfect_trader01, where he initially lures victims with enticing messages about all target hits.
The operator offers paid premium membership through a platform called cosmofeed.com, charging ₹1,999 for lifetime access to what he calls “trading education.”
His services include providing specific buy-and-sell calls for index derivatives (Nifty, Bank Nifty, Sensex) with exact entry points, stop-loss levels, and profit targets.
Despite claiming to follow “SEBI Mandatory Guidelines,” there’s no visible SEBI registration number (RA, IA, or Broker license) anywhere in his communications.
This is a massive red flag that immediately exposes the entire operation as unauthorized advisory.
Mr Perfect Trader Red Flags to Watch Out For
Before you think that Mr Perfect Trader is just a learning platform and you can rely on him for gaining knowledge, have a look at the following red flags.
While navigating through his Telegram channel, we found various violations being committed by him.
Some of them are:
1. Specific Trading Calls Without SEBI Registration
Mr Perfect Trader’s Telegram channel regularly posts messages like “SENSEX 01 JAN 85800 PUT” “Buy Above: 500+ Target: PREMIUM SL: PREMIUM” and “JACKPOT TRADE ₹380 TO ₹580++” with extremely specific entry points, stop-loss levels, and targets.
Now, wondering what’s wrong with that?
Well, this is textbook unregistered advisory. Only SEBI-registered Research Analysts (marked as INH) are legally allowed to give such specific buy-and-sell recommendations.
When someone without registration gives these calls, they’re violating Section 12(1) of the SEBI Act and Regulation 3 of PFUTP (Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices) Regulations.
The danger?
People follow these calls thinking they come from a qualified professional, but there’s zero accountability, zero compliance, and zero investor protection if the call goes wrong.
2. Cherry-Picked Profit Screenshots That Tell Half the Story
One of the most misleading tactics Mr Perfect Trader uses is flooding his channels with screenshots of profit trades like: “5.9K PROFIT BOOKED,” “1.1K+ PROFIT BOOKED,” “33.2K PROFIT BOOKED BY PREMIUM MEMBER.”
These are real-looking screenshots with portfolio balances and trade confirmations.
What’s hidden? The losing trades. The trades that hit stop-loss and wiped out capital.
SEBI specifically prohibits showing selective profit screenshots because they create a false impression of consistency and accuracy.
In short, it creates an inducement which make beginners put their huge capital in the trade without any proper understanding and knowledge.
Markets are unpredictable; no trader wins every single trade, but these screenshots are designed to make you believe someone can.
This is called “profit baiting,” and it’s one of the most common fraud tactics used by unregistered advisors.
3. Paid Premium Membership Without Any License
Mr Perfect Trader charges ₹1,999 for “lifetime” premium access and also offers monthly subscription plans through cosmofeed.com.
This is critical: anyone charging money for investment advice, trading calls, or tips must be registered with SEBI as an Investment Adviser (INA) or Research Analyst (INH).
There’s no exception, no grey area. The moment money changes hands, registration becomes mandatory.
When you visit Mr Perfect Trader’s channel, you won’t find a single SEBI registration number displayed: not in the bio, not in pinned messages, nowhere.
4. “Guaranteed Returns” and “All Targets Hit” Claims
Words like “SURE HERO ZERO (capital 2x, capital 5x),” “90% ACCURACY,” “ALL TARGET HIT,” and “Consistent profit since 10 days” are plastered across the channel.
SEBI’s regulations are crystal clear: no one is allowed to promise guaranteed or assured returns in stock markets.
Markets carry risk. Professionals know this and never make such claims. These words are designed to prey on greedy emotions and create false confidence.
The law is strict here; anyone making such claims is violating Regulation 3(a) and 4(2)(k) of PFUTP Regulations, which specifically ban fraudulent and misleading statements.
5. Profit-Sharing and Account Handling Schemes
The channel advertises “50% You / 50% Us” profit-sharing with a capital requirement of $1,000 to $3,000, claiming “Trades executed with predefined risk rules.”
The catch? Handing over your account credentials or agreeing to profit-sharing with an unregistered entity is incredibly dangerous.
What actually happens in many such schemes is that the “professional” executes trades that benefit them while losses go to the investor. You’re also taking on the risk of account hijacking and unauthorized trading.
Contact messages say “DM ACCOUNT HANDLING,” and this personal approach is a classic sign of an informal, unregistered operation.
6. Hypocritical Disclaimers That Don’t Match the Content
The message reads: “SEBI Mandatory Guidelines/Channel Disclaimer: Financial markets involve risk.
No tips, no advice, no PMS advisory. Only education. Before investing, consult your advisor. I’m saying that learn.”
Then, immediately below, the entire channel is filled with tips, calls, and specific trading recommendations. This is a classic deception that puts a disclaimer while doing the exact opposite.
SEBI found this same pattern in multiple fraud cases (like Safe Trading by Mohit Gupta and Baap of Chart by Mohammad Nasiruddin Ansari).
A genuine educator teaches concepts; they don’t provide calls with profit targets. This contradiction is a smoking gun that exposes the entire operation.
7. Paid Premium Channel
Another thing worth noting is that Mr. perfect trader has a premium telegram channel that is only for the users who pay an amount of ₹1999.
If it is an educational channel, what are the things that are being shared on premium channels that are generating profits?
Without registration, how can one advise about the stock market?
Well, this is where telegram walks in. We see numerous fake channels that operate on this platform.
So you must be aware of it and think before you pay money!
A Real Victim’s Story: How ₹2 Lakhs Vanished?
An investor from Delhi was approached by someone claiming to be Mr Perfect Trader on Instagram (@mr_perfect_trader01) with one simple promise: invest ₹2 lakh in USDT (cryptocurrency), and watch it grow with assured returns.
The person created trust through convincing messages and claimed to have insider knowledge of market movements. The victim was specifically asked to transfer the payment in Indian Rupees (INR), with assurances that conversion to USDT would happen smoothly.
Trusting the persona and the polished presentation, the investor sent ₹2 lakhs to the account provided.
What happened next?
Silence. Complete radio silence.
Days turned into weeks with zero response from Mr Perfect Trader. The promised USDT never arrived.
The guaranteed returns never materialized. After multiple attempts to contact the individual through Instagram and Telegram, the victim was either ignored or blocked.
Feeling trapped and deceived, the investor filed a formal complaint but is still waiting for a resolution.
This isn’t an isolated incident; similar complaints are flooding SEBI’s complaint portal every single day from people who trusted these unregistered operators.
How to Report Trading Scams?
If you’ve been scammed or are suspicious of Mr Perfect Trader, here’s what you need to do immediately:
1. Document Everything
Save screenshots of the following items:
- conversations
- transaction receipts
- profit claims
2. File a cyber crime complaint
File a cybercrime complaint on the cybercrime portal with all evidence of fraudulent communication and fund transfers.
3. Lodge an FIR
Go to your local police station and file a First Information Report under the relevant sections of the IPC. Make sure to take all the evidence collected as proof.
Visit SEBI’s Investor Complaints Cell or call the toll-free number. Provide your transaction details, screenshots of conversations, and proof of payment. Include the Telegram channel name and Instagram handle.
5. Verify Before You Invest
Always cross-check any advisor on SEBI’s official database. A legitimate SEBI-registered IA or RA will have an INAxxx or INHxxx registration number that you can independently verify.

Conclusion
The Mr Perfect Trader Telegram channel is a masterclass in modern financial fraud.
It uses social media psychology, selective profit screenshots, and coded language to appear legitimate while operating completely outside the law.
Remember this: there’s no such thing as guaranteed returns in stock markets, no secret strategies that ensure daily profits, and no “perfect trader” giving sure-shot calls.
If someone promises these things without SEBI registration, they’re either a fraudster or recklessly misleading you.
Your hard-earned money took years to accumulate but only seconds to vanish. Before you give a rupee to anyone claiming to grow your wealth, spend two minutes verifying their SEBI registration on the official website.
That single check can save you from losing lakhs. In the fight against investment fraud, verification is your best weapon.
